So it's finally been taken down, thank goodness for the snipping tool.
An emoji of Fabricant's head would convey the same messageGiven the unremitting cavalcade of Tory shitty tweets, I think we really need a 'wanker emoji on here...
Yes. It could be called the 'bellend' emojiAn emoji of Fabricant's head would convey the same message
'In its majestic equality, the law forbids rich and poor alike to sleep under bridges, beg in the streets and steal loaves of bread'"There is one law for rich and poor alike, which prevents them equally from stealing bread and sleeping under bridges.“
— Jo Walton
That happens already - the pensioner gets prison or a large fine to deter others, the millionaire has suffered enough with the damaged reputation so gets let offIs justice about treating everybody equally, or equals equally?
If I were a judge and a desperate pensioner was up for stealing a loaf because the money had run out, and a millionaire was up for stealing a loaf for a thrill, I would not treat them the same even for the same offence.
"In an interview with The Telegraph, Kit Malthouse, the policing minister, said that he planned to model the testing on a scheme in Hawaii where known drug users are randomly called in for swabs to check they are clean.
Each is allocated one of three colours – red, blue or orange – and every morning have to call a number to be told which group has been designated for testing that day.
It will be part of a new regime that will also introduce electronic drug tags for recreational users and those convicted of drug-related crimes so they can be monitored 24/7 to ensure they are clean."
"The scale of sanctions, which are yet to be finalised, will be set out in a White Paper this summer with drug users facing an automatic “escalation” up to, and including, prison for those who breach their orders or refuse to give up drugs."
That'll work.
What's he on, anyway?

Yeah you're right, the article is about the middle class and not the elite.One suspects the laws are for the plebs, not Tory MPs.
It's only funny because it's bloody tories again - but the alleged offence isn't funny at all, nor the sense of entitlement and impunity that led someone to commit it.Haha, no we haven't but it's been all over my Twitter timeline for the past couple of days. At least one person speculating it may be Gove and tbh I wouldn't be surprised if it was.
Have we had this yet? For once I just don't know where to begin...
I’m sure no one will notice that one.
If in doubt, blame the pandemic.
