   Yes the draper thing has run and run – like that South African murder case – some stories just go on and on and really have no place on national news …. Although both draper and the South African were approved at one time …

   …apparently the journo got a gong for looking after her husband and making it a story …. Gongs come easy these days …

   Would the chairman of a large FTSE company get away with financial impropriety by saying "the board mislead me"?

   No. Quite obviously s/he is there to cross examine, ask difficult questions and ensure accountability. https://t.co/bxOsuRlww8

     Has he featured in the horizon public inquiry yet I wonder ?
     He really is an example of why people are looking away from parliament and wanting real democracy ….

     What this really is, is a real politician who couldn’t give a shit about the people, who is lazy and wants an easy life and is prepared to believe anything told to him so long as he doesn’t have to do any real work where he gets his hands dirty.

   Competition time, spot the difference:

   1) “Cambridge University is embroiled in antisemitism row after college refused to discipline students who called for a ‘mass uprising’ against Israelis to ‘free the Palestinian people'”

   2) “ISIS fanatics issue bloodcurdling threat against Jews across the world”

   And, for a bonus point:

   “Student who was convicted for egging the King brags about their crime before going on ‘anti-Semitic’ rant comparing Israel, US and UK to ‘Nazi Germany'”

   “An Islamic State spokesman has sent out a chilling message to Jews worldwide.

   According to a translation of the speech via The Messenger, he said: “The fight with Jews is a religious war, not a social or national battle. It is not a [war] centered around lands or borders. Barge into their homes and kill them using different methods, including gunfire, bombs, grenades and knives.

   Al-Ansari added: “Don’t differentiate between a civilian or a soldier, as they both should be targeted.”

     Yes but as everyone says, eliminating HAMAS is the only important issue, nothing else matters apparantly.

   The Met police commissioner has banned his force from attending the 40th anniversary memorial for WPC Fletcher – murdered by Muslims firing from the Iranian embassy .

   The evidence that the Met – like the BBC has been taken under control by Islam is there to see ….

   The Jeffrey Epstein scandal, & a top federal prosecutor's confession (Alex Acosta) that he was told not to prosecute Epstein bc Epstein "belonged to intelligence," calls to mind Operation Midnight Climax that the CIA got busted running for a decade from 1953-1963: https://t.co/VQ4XQLgpOW pic.twitter.com/0jL6GIQhag
