Bizarre is the tough guy ex-army mysogynist that doesn't believe a woman in power could be a bully because of her size and because bullying is obvs all about being physically intimidationing...
All right snowflake, I have no trouble believing that a 5ft 2” woman could bully you

I do think it's important that the Government be open about what has to happen for lockdown to be eased - what milestones need to be hit, what metrics they're using. But fuck Baker and his cronies.
Christ, for a strategy that requires the public to buy into it to have the slightest chance of success, complete transparency is absolutely fundamental.
The problem is that Boris has surrounded himself with thieves and crooks who cannot afford scrutiny.
Deputy Editor of the Spectator rebuked for being a blindingly poor journalist and has deleted all his tweets from 2020.
Good old Spectator.
Good God!
Does the UK actually have a standard of ethics for the Press? I thought it was a given that newspapers could publish any old shit with impunity as long as they didn't breach libel laws.
It must've been extremely shady to have attracted such censure.
Toby Young has responded with a defensive tweet thread where he disingenuously misrepresents various things AND completely fucks up on the concept of CFR vs IFR
Probably be a bit of bullying going on in the Home Office this morning
The UK home secretary, Priti Patel, is facing questions after 150,000 arrest records were accidentally wiped from police databases last week.
Fingerprint, DNA and arrest history records were deleted, which could allow offenders to go free because evidence from crime scenes will not be flagged on the Police National Computer (PNC).
The Home Office said it was working with police to assess the impact of the glitch, which reportedly occurred by accident during a weekly “weeding” session to expunge data. It said no records of criminals or dangerous persons had been deleted, and that the wiped records were those of people arrested and released when no further action was taken.

Don't think we can really hold Patel responsible for a computer error

One of those 'accidents' that happens to delete a bunch of evidence against an MP or Tory donor perhaps?

Oh I fully realise that. Understandably she will be livid as it doesn't look good particularly on her watch
I presume they do the daily , weekly and monthly back ups just in case?
Listen mate, it’s easy to be captain hindsight after the event.
Now's not the time to point fingers, now is the time for unity!
Exactly !
They now just need to request that anyone who has committed a crime in the last couple of years; make an appointment with their local plod, & come in a help them fill in the missing CRO data.

But this is where we get into responsible vs accountable. Accountability within a Whitehall department ultimately rests with the minister.

I think there is absolutely no chance that was a tongue in cheek comment by JRM absolutely none.
...and?
If anything that's worse. An arch-Brexiteer being glib about fish while UK fishing businesses face ruin due to Brexiteer lies about frictionless trade and reducing paperwork proving to be exactly what 'remoaners' claimed is a fucking terrible look.

Yes, you're probably right
He's such a fatuous twat he probably thought it was hilarious
Especially with so many hundreds of thousands of pounds worth of fish and shellfish rotting on the UK's quaysides this week
Especially politicians who are so insulated from the small pains of Brexit that they could likely lose half their fortune and still life of luxury for the rest of their days.
Guys, fishing is just collateral damage for these guys and in their eyes not worth worrying about. They dont give a shit about fishing. It was always used as a distraction in the Brexit negotiations and was used as a stalling ploy to delay signing the deal until Xmas Eve so they could avoid any HoC scrutiny. The Fishing industry has been used and abused by the Blonde Bumblecunt and his Brexit Ultras and has now been thrown onto the bonfire and they dont give a shit about voters in the likes of Hull, Grimsby and Aberdeen. Fishing was just a tool for them to attack Johnny Foreigner, to get the headlines in the Sun and Express and whip up the anti EU jingoism and racist overtones.
The reality is they wanted Brexit in order to remove what they see as unnecessary costs and constraints on private business and that means reducing employment, environmental, consumer protections, corporate taxation and public sector. Why do you think the EU negotiators were so paranoid about the level playing field and access to the EU. We have seen the start of the drip feed with the article today in the FT about employment rights and expect this to accelerate over the next few months. This was always the objective and the fishing industry, NI and even Scotland were all seen as expendable in order to achieve their short term and selfish right wing objectives. If anyone thinks Brexit was done for sovereignty or the good of the British people then they are nuts and will be sadly disappointed over the next few years. Whereas Trump failed by not getting a 2nd term the danger is the Blonde Bumblecunt and his Brexit Ultras might actually achieve their goals!
Well, yes. Fishing has always been little more than an emotive symbol in the grand picture, but at the moment we're really focussing on how cunty JR-M's comments were and how being tongue in cheek doesn't make the positive difference OS seems to think.

That's certainly the case for entitled right wing twats with no idea about the real world.
Not to mention moronic out of touch Toadies and Royalist sychophants that sneer at people suffering.

You lot really are a misery if you can’t see the funny side of JRM suggesting the fish are happier in British waters god help you.
