    The PR team at the Humanist Association have been in the grip of libmob thinking for a long time
    @NewHumanist
    Not only does the UK have humanitarian obligations towards refugees, but they can make significant contributions, and demographic trends and labour shortages make their contributions especially important.

    What the F**ck is happening to people? I read that a Miami -London bound plane was returned to Miami because a female passenger refused to wear a mask!

    This is out of control crazy shit!

    They could have just continued to London and bundled the passenger off, to the police if necessary.

    It’s just faux outrage and bollox.

    Maybe the pilot preferred to go home rather than complete the flight.

    I despair of the latest breed of humans more and more they have zero sense of proportion and zero empathy in fact are Natzi frigging zombies like most of the Australian parliament.

    WW2 equivalent:

    “ men we are approaching the drop zone, when the red light comes on you can jump. But sir! Johnson has not got his water bottle!”

    “What! You were all told to have your water bottle you twats!”

    OK, abandon drop, we are going back to Blighty “

    OK remember the BBC statue
    The guy who filmed it is PAP who runs a YourTube channel cataloguing Police-Abusing-Powers
    He’s also an ex cop

    On the night the police not only arrested the activist
    buy also arrested PAP for filming and seized all his equipment
    in their normal intimidation-policing way.
    AFAIK people have already helped him out and he will be putting out new videos soon
