    … for a recent comment… given the changes at the Met in the UK in the news, I would think there will be many of these today… Well done to The Star for creeping past the Broadsheet censors….

    A lot of legacy media carried the story that the Ontario government had successfully petitioned a court to freeze access to millions of dollars donated through online fundraising platform GiveSendGo to the convoy protesting COVID-19 restrictions in Ottawa and at several border crossings. Except GiveSendGo responded with this tweet :-

    “Know this! Canada has absolutely ZERO jurisdiction over how we manage our funds here at GiveSendGo. All funds for EVERY campaign on GiveSendGo flow directly to the recipients of those campaigns, not least of which is The Freedom Convoy campaign.”

      Also

      Dear Government Officials.
      Pease stop bragging about the high vaccination rates.
      Most were coerced.
      That doesn’t make you heroes.
      That makes you Harvey Weinstein.

          The meaning of COERCE is to make (someone) do something by using force or threats,

          The meaning of RAPE is unlawful sexual activity and usually sexual intercourse carried out forcibly or under threat of injury against a person’s will

          Both involve force. That you cannot, or more likely will not, equate the FORCE in those two things because it leaves you uncomfortable- says a great deal about YOU.

          Corecon IS abuse- what else could it be?

    So how do you read Cressida Dick’s resignation.?
    She was made a Dame under a Conservative government.
    She was offered an extension to her tenure by an conservative government.
    Hee tenure overall has been a disaster.
    Her investigation of Bumbahole Boris had the hallmarks of being prepared for a whitewash.
    And that is probably the main driver for her resignation – to excuse herself from being the investigator and being questioned about her handling of it.
    It’s a nice way of throwing Boris under a bus if the evidence has stacked so high that she can’t ignore it.
    Gas that a Labour Mayor accepts her resignation.

    Apart from that, no. Charger Salmons this morning yet.

          I prefer the sarakate vision… panda eyed from the tears, ladders in her stockings and the saddest butterfly tattoo arching a once graceful wrist
