aside from the most obviously disturbing effect of this on vulnerable groups (for whom tories care nothing about) can't they see the obvious implications for policing? a home environment for immigrants is a safer environment for organised crime.

It's the UK, 2017, folks and the Queen is making sure she doesn't have to bear the stench of even secondhand Papism:

her first husband, US TV producer Trevor Engelson, was Jewish and the couple tied the knot in a Bohemian ceremony at the Jamaica Inn in Ocho Rios, Jamaica

what is a "bohemian ceremony"? is that when the bride wears flip flops and the groom plays bongos? or does it mean you get defenestrated after the first dance?

If it's about throwing Catholics out of windows then the Queen would approve.

There are notably few photos in the GIS for "Queen Tony Blair" which feature windows, it's true. Though most of them have Michael Sheen instead.

JOB has been good value on all this lately

We’re paying tens of billions of pounds to leave the world’s largest free trade area while surrendering all of our ability to define its rights & regulations.
All so that we can hopefully start negotiating an inferior arrangement with the world’s largest free trade area.

@andrew_lilico
It's probably an honest mistake, easily done. I RTed something from someone dodgy once, then un-RTed it quickly (to some well-earned derision) & apologised. Surely Trump can be man enough to do the same?

@DPJHodges
Are you being serious.

One lesson of Trump tweet = careful what you like & share on social media. You may be giving racists & extremists the publicity they crave 1/2

How naive/apologist. And the first reply is a photo of Nick posing with Fransen.

Although of course every time any of us mention the orange twat we're also giving a racist and extremist the publicity he craves... anyway back to Lucinda Williams, Aldi Baileys and GT Sport, let other people worry about the world.

In her keynote address on Thursday, the former disability minister will announce the UK’s first global disability summit, to be held in 2018. The summit aims to bring together global leaders and technology companies to tackle the barriers that prevent people with disabilities from fulfilling their potential

“In many parts of the world, people with disabilities simply don’t count,” Mordaunt will say. “They are neglected and isolated. They are attacked and abused. They are invisible”..

the fucking state of this, I presume BMJ representatives or any of the disabled people still actually alive in the UK won't be invited to give their vital input.

promising young arthur, blithe disregard for fules (calzino), Thursday, 30 November 2017 15:41 (six years ago) link

yeah and I'm interested they avoided using "disabled people" which is preferred in the UK cos it highlights the social model

https://www.disabilitynewsservice.com/oliver-comes-out-of-retirement-to-deliver-stinging-rebuke-to-parasite-charities/

"He mentioned Scope, and a series of films it produced in 2015 to mark the 20th anniversary of the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA), which failed to point out that, in its earlier incarnation as The Spastics Society, it had been “bitterly opposed to anti-discrimination legislation in the 1980s and only reluctantly came on board when it became obvious that such legislation was inevitable”.

He also referred to former Tory leader William Hague, who told the BBC that he regarded the DDA as one of his finest achievements, when in reality he had “turned the legislation into a pale shadow of what it should have been”.

Oliver was heavily critical of “the big disability charities”, which he said had “proved predictably useless at defending the living standards and lifestyles of disabled people” from the government’s “vicious attacks, while continuing to do very well for themselves”.

Oliver also spoke in his speech of how the Paralympics and the Invictus Games, the sports event for disabled veterans created by Prince Harry, are used by the government as political cover.

He pointed out that “not all injured ex-service men and women can or want to compete in elite sport and many who don’t live lives of deprivation, poverty and misery”, while the government is able to continue sending young people to “often illegal wars to get blown apart for their country”."

Professor Mike Oliver telling it like it really is, another one the BBC and Penny Mordant won't want to talk to.

promising young arthur, blithe disregard for fules (calzino), Thursday, 30 November 2017 19:13 (six years ago) link

Always felt the Paralympics coverage proved that the disabled are only worth bothering about to the media and society in general when they can be marketed as 'superheroes'.

it really is vile, it makes me want to vomit (all over Prince Harry).

Like that BBC programme, Saints and Sinners, that tacitly implied that the only people deserving of receiving benefits where those with heart-rending sob stories to tell.
