"" You have to feel sorry for Israel: after committing genocide for 20 months and starting an illegal war of aggression, it has somehow found its airbases and intelligence buildings and arms factories keep exploding for some reason. I can't explain it either.
Israel invested heavily in its defence by purchasing as many US politicians as it could and all it got was a broken iron dome. If I was AIPAC, I'd be asking those politicians to refund the donations!
As Israel is obviously the victim here, it needed a Trump card, and all I can say is thank god Jeffrey Epstein was running that paedophile ring, otherwise The World's Most Moral Army™ would be cooked.
Trump had been reluctant to accept Israel's plan to let US soldiers fight for Israel, and this has left Israel with few options. Either it can use its weapons of mass destruction, or the colonisers can go home to Europe, and let's be honest, anyone would choose genocide over going home. Unfortunately, things are not that straightforward... ""

Re: Tuesday 17th June 2025
Fancy taking a guess at which Labour MPs abstained from voting?
-Wes Streeting (health secretary)
-Bridget Phillipson (women and equalities minister)
-Rosie Duffield (top feminist and woman defender)
Terfs doing some top feminist-ing there.

Re: Tuesday 17th June 2025
Abortion has been legal in this country sice 1967, is Tice calling every doctor and nurse who performed one over the course of the last 58 years a baby killer?
This is one of the few pieces of legislation that's come from this parliament which is genuinely good and I'm not sure how well Tice's performative evangelical bullshit will go down with Reform voters, many of whom will be women who have had abortions themselves.

Re: Tuesday 17th June 2025
There's quite a few Labour MPs in the abstaining list you might not expect to be there from Rosena Allin-Khan to the likes of Dawn Butler, plus most of the women in cabinet seem to have abstained, I can see Jess Phillips and Lisa Nandy amongst others, so I'm guessing some of them weren't there, some of them were 'paired', while some of them genuinely had issues with it but didn't want to vote against.refitman wrote: Tue Jun 17, 2025 8:46 pm Fancy taking a guess at which Labour MPs abstained from voting?

The one name I expected to see in the 'no' column from Labour was Rachael Maskell (York MP) and there she is, she's one of those weird Christian Socialists, great on all the left wing things we like but not so much on women's reproductive rights. She was the only Labour MP to vote against extending abortion rights to Northern Ireland in 2019 and tried to claim she did so as it would be undermining the Northern Ireland Assembly, let's see what her excuse is this time.

Re: Tuesday 17th June 2025
My housing situation as it stands.
The prohibition notice comes into force tomorrow so I rang the housing inspector this afternoon just to make sure I wouldn't be rudely awoken by bailiffs tomorrow morning. It was quite an amusing conversation, mostly due to the silences from his end on each occasion when he realised I knew what I was talking about and could quote the relevant legislation, I could almost hear the gears slowly grinding in his head, especially when he tried to put the shits up me claiming I could be prosecuted for not leaving the property (I can't, in short enforcement orders can't break a tenancy). I don't know if talking to someone with half a brain who'd read up on the law discombobulated him somewhat but he admitted that yes indeed I'm due compensation and even (eventually) told me which dept in the council to make my claim to. In a previous phone call, like every other council housing advisor I'd spoken to, he'd denied all knowledge of such things when I asked. He also confirmed everything would be put on hold until the landlord's appeal had been heard at tribunal, but according to the law that's bollocks. I won't go into the lengthy details but it's entirely up to the tribunal if they want to suspend the notice until a hearing.
So I'm stuck between the rock of an idiot landlord who's fucked off on holiday to Italy for a fortnight and a council that I presume is instructing its poorly educated housing advisors/inspectors not to inform tenants of their statutory rights because it costs money.
Anyway I'll just ride it out and see what happens. I'd like to say it's fun but there has been the odd spike of crippling anxiety that's lasted a day or two, then I'm fine for a few days before it happens again...

Re: Tuesday 17th June 2025
Seriously though, if you're a council or any other organisation, you don't want to fuck with someone with OCD, time on his hands, and access to the internet.
I mean the guy I spoke to today hadn't even heard of the 1973 Land Compensation Act for fuck's sake. Dumbass.
