    Peaceful anti racism protests dwarf far right

    Probably because it's a nothingburger. Even if true, "far left organise peaceful counter demonstration to prevent racist violence" is not a story anybody is interested in.

    Death penalty

    That's why I think the only workable solution would be to follow my suggestion of having a separate and higher standard of proof for the death sentence e.g. "beyond all possible doubt"

    Labour councillor inciting violence.

    Interestingly, in the case of Tyler Kay for the same offence, his original post actually quotes her post and adds the hashtag #standwithlucyconnolly. He then goes on to make several other posts. He got four years but with 20% off for admitting some facts. Obviously, Lucy Connolly only made the...

    Labour councillor inciting violence.

    I have been on GD a relatively short time, but I've never seen anything explicit calling for killing or violence against Jews. So I am thinking that if there ever was anything, it was at least two years ago. I have, however, been shocked by several such postings by people on the other side of...

    Ukraine counter offensive

    If your aim is to take 100%, then it is an 80% failure.

    Peaceful anti racism protests dwarf far right

    What do you think the Labour party did in the three weeks they were in power to start these riots. Was it stopping the Rwanda scheme?

    Labour councillor inciting violence.

    Are "Inciting racial hatred online" and "Publishing written material intended to stir racial hatred" actually the same offence? If so, the reporting is very confusing. Maybe MBK will know?

    What about muslim haters? I've never really understood these provisions. Do they apply equally?

    Can Kamala Harris win?

    The court cases against Trump might still play a role. The stolen papers case seems to be dead until after the election. The judge in that case is a huge Trump supporter and made a decision which is thought by almost everyone to be legally bonkers. Basically saying that the whole mechanism for...

    What are you watching on TV right now?

    9.30 BBC4 The Fight for Saturday Night. It's an old show, but I remember it being great fun and very nostalgic. Looking at The Generation Game, The Two Ronnies and many more.

    I'm not being awkward, but I don't fully understand this reply.

    Peaceful anti racism protests dwarf far right

    I think there are two different things going on. There is a large amount of discontent in the country. But the rioters were from the far right.

    Wrong accent?

    Can Kamala Harris win?

    The Republicans have come up with a new nickname for Walz. They're calling him "Tampon Tim". Because as governor he passed a law requiring schools to provide free sanitary products. The Republicans just get weirder! Who could possibly be against free sanitary products?

    Peaceful anti racism protests dwarf far right

    I thought they were all supposed to be humous eaters from Hampstead?

    There is no such thing as "two tier policing"

    I caught the Sky papers review in the early hours for the first time in many months. Henry Hill, the deputy editor of Conservative Home, was comparing the response to the riots. He said that he is a strong supporter of law and order, but that the response to the Harehills (Leeds) riot was...

    Labour councillor inciting violence.

    It looks like she's been charged with a different and presumably less serious offence?
