In the news

That news article seems badly written to me. Speeding is 28mph which would fall outside my definition of speeding. And the ‘cyclist’ is a suspected thief making off from police.

PC Acheampong had been speeding as he followed Mr Arnold, driving at
27mph (43km/h) in a 20mph (32km/h) zone, prosecutors said.

The agency is that sentence is puzzling. A driver ran a cyclist down from behind by hitting him at 27mph in a ton of metal, and the cyclist "lost control" and "ended up" beneath the car.

Always the cyclists fault, we know that.

"PC Acheampong alleged the fleeing suspect was riding in an "arrogant" manner."
Ok.

US debt is fucking crazy.

Ours is pretty crazy though

I wonder how much debt that is per person in the UK? Monster amount if debt per person in the US!!

Lads, it's only MMT

Republicans claim financial responsibility but most of that is racked up by them.
Clinton actually had a budget surplus.
A huge portion of the deficit was Trump giving tax breaks to millionaires. They can write off their executive jets now.

I wonder how much debt that is per person in the UK?

(Assuming US style billion = 1,000 million)

2,445.2 billion / 67 million = 2,445.2 thousand / 67 = 2,445,200 / 67 =~ £36.5k per person

Total UK mortgage debt is roughly comparable at £1,675.8 billion.

Why has no called her a massive snowflake for not wanting to go on a SA course with members of the public?

Ah the famous ram the cyclist with a car method of police work.

I guess many people cannot empathise/imagine what it's like to be sent to Rwanda because "refugees" whereas refusing to sit with others to do a speeding course, suggesting you are "better than them" is easier to get worked up about?

That somebody like her who has been fired before and keeps breaking guidelines/rules is still in a job is not a good sign though, May at least sacked her.

Johnson referred to the Police because he may have broken lock down rules.

The incidents under review only came to light because he had to share diaries with the Cabinet Office as the government were paying his legal fees for the standards committee investigation.

What a self own.

Money grabbing cunt.

To be fair he probably didn't realise he was breaking the rules....

Probably didn’t realise any rules would apply to him too

Branson's Midas Touch strikes again.

Another of the traitorous fucks goes down - 18 years for the founder of the Oath Keepers.

Rot. In. Hell.

Figures

Rishi sunak a fan of Jilly cooper novels

Could he be any more beige?

18 years in a federal pen because you tried to keep donald effing trump, of all people, in power. Ironic that his own lawyers said, in his defence, that trump was really the one to blame.

I hope they both get a happy reunion and a long term stay behind bars.

Trump vows to pardon J6ers convicted of seditious conspiracy if he is re-elected as president. Be afraid Americans if that happens.

Interesting theory I've seen, as per Johnson and 'painting buses' to replace '£350 mil on side of a bus' in search results, Jilly Cooper to nuke Yvette Cooper completely destroying Braverman in the Commons....

Tutfon Street business as usual?

At least he was trying to start on the outside and work his way in.
