Shame she didn't mention he is a climate denier living in a country on fire.

i think thats an ad for detol? or similar. loads of detol adverts up on the tube at the mo

It is an ad for hand disinfectant. Cropping out half the ad to promote a one-sided narrative is not cool, whether you're on the right side or not.

Possibly Detol hand disinfectant
They're about the only company advertising on tubes at the mo, other than charities.

Just looked at Twitter on my lunch and there's a great outpouring of anti work sentiment surrounding this.... So no harm done

Good Law Project latest...

Dear Badgers,

Yesterday in Parliament, Jacob Rees-Mogg MP was questioned over the PPE fiasco that has seen the Government spend hundreds of millions of pounds on protective equipment that can’t be used by the NHS. The contract in question was handed to Ayanda Capital, an opaque private fund, with links to a Government advisor. His response?

‘It is equally right that those decisions are held to account within this House, this is why we have such an honest and uncorrupt country.’

But whilst in public, the Government claims openness and transparency the story behind the scenes is a very different one. A claim brought by Good Law Project along with MPs Debbie Abrahams, Caroline Lucas, and Layla Moran points out that Government is - beyond any doubt - breaking the law by failing to publish procurement contracts. Moreover, lawyers acting on behalf of Good Law Project and EveryDoctor in the legal challenge over Ayanda’s questionable PPE contract have written to the High Court expressing dismay at the Government’s lack of transparency.

‘The Defendant’s failure candidly and transparently to address that point is reprehensible.’

The full blistering legal letter can be read here.

Our legal team has also written to the Government to question why Ayanda Capital, linked to a Government advisor, received more favourable contract terms than other businesses who were given contracts to supply PPE.

Jacob Rees-Mogg claims there is no funny business. On the evidence we have - only some of which we can put into the public domain - we are a long way from being persuaded he is right.

Thank you for your support,
Jolyon Maugham QC
Director

I thought it was the rapid climate change radically altering the environment that constituted the threat, not a bunch of middle-class hippies who happen to be drawing attention to it happening.

Patel is obviously just salty and trying to look tough because XR went and temporarily inconvenienced some of her favourite government mouthpieces in the media.

I'm no fan of XR, but I fucking loathe Tory cunts and their newspaper lapdogs, so that particular action gets a thumbs-up from me.

Reading the story you can't help but feel that all of those papers sharing a single printing press kind of proves the point that maybe they shouldn't all be in one place under one owner?

Just maybe?

Of course six metres of tidal rise is the bigger threat to the world as we know it.

Edit. I must point out I have no MA in anything, as Mrs S points out to me regularly.

Matt Hancock blames British public for getting too many coronavirus tests

The Health Secretary shifted the blame for problems with the Covid-19 testing service - he pinpointed a rise in people without symptoms wrongly seeking a Covid-19 test, including if they're going on holiday

[two sheds]

So it's wrong to get a test before going on holiday to - say - Cornwall - where there are still relatively few cases. Sounds fucking responsible to me. I wonder whether Cummings got a test before his Durham jaunt.

Removing graffiti will 'boost confidence' in railway, says Shapps - BBC News

The transport secretary says quicker action will help give passengers "confidence" to return.

www.bbc.com

Rail bosses have been told to do more to crack down on graffiti on the UK's network as a way of encouraging more people to start using trains again.

Transport Secretary Grant Shapps said maintaining stations to a high standard helped boost passenger confidence and deter more serious crimes.

It is 100% graffiti that stops more train travel. Nothing to do with the extortionate costs, lack of capacity, delays and risk of catching Covid-19.

 

[Artaxerxes]

Ah yes, broken windows theory.

 

[campanula]

So the loathesome Elphick gets a couple of years in poky. I hope the cons shout 'I'm a naughty Tory' as they administer some rough justice...preferably with a splintery broom handle up his arse.

 

[Streathamite]

The 'former cabinet minister' is absolutely right. I sense people are fast running out of patience with this government.

 

[DotCommunist]

what a cunts admission though, 'we're worried that having been given some physical evidence of government capability they won't buy the idea that all this is someone elses problem'

 

[two sheds]

indeed - not particularly bothered by homelessness, just bothered that people will correctly blame the tories for it.

 

[Streathamite]

what a cunts admission though, 'we're worried that having been given some physical evidence of government capability they won't buy the idea that all this is someone elses problem'

agreed absolutely. He's a Tory, that's what I expected

 

[MrSki]

Be interesting to see the answer from the HoC. I expect it will be Covid.
