"Innocent" as in"arrested by UK police in 2015 for multiple rapes"?
"Innocent"? so they used a time machine to frame him?
"Innocent" as in fled to Romania believing he had a lower chance of arrest?
innocent? No,Thats the MO of someone fleeing the law

@MetPolice
If this was a political protest, or a vigil for a murdered women, the police would arrest EVERY single person here. they could find .They'd be kettling and using batons.
Just like the Sarah Everard vigil.
But no, its football.They do nothing.
What hypocrisy.
@jaynooch
This is malicious, and cruel. What might be funny for you, will show a truly heartless lack of empathy or understanding on your part of how he might react.
Entering into parenthood is not a matter to be joked about. This shows zero maturity. Scaring someone about it is wrong.
@filmsonwax
That is so spot on. They are looking at a CGI image, and not even questioning its validity as a character. I can't think of a previous time that had ever happened.
@SuellaBraverman
43 days - shortest period in post since the position was established in 1782. What an omnishambles.
This level of staff turnover makes the Trump administration look stable, you know?

Yes. She represents FAR more people in the uk, than yet another city banker grifting for millions in a suit angrily ranting about something to distract the masses whose never lived in social housing and never worried about how to feed the kids.
So Yes. HELL YES.
@MaestroMorgan17
There is no dating crisis in the West.
What there is, is men who make themselves emotionally unavailable, men who follow personality cults around other toxic men who massage and soothe their insecurities, & fill them with toxic ideas.
Why would a woman choose such a man?
@Independent
No. Absolutely not.
Remember: Your work has a value. Your time has a value. Don't do for free what you should be, in a commerical context, paid for.
And If you think that the King is short of enough cash to pay you £10.25 p/h to do this work - and it IS work - you are wrong.
Dylan Moran is 100% accurate.
Linehan, Chapelle, Rowling, Buckley, Murphy, ... This is just a game in the culture war, tools for their self-mania of ego and seeking validation.
But for the people they attack, this is a matter of living and dying.
@TakedownMRAs
As if all of a sudden they suddenly came to conclude that "wait, taking bodily autonomy from one group of people... what do you mean it won't end there? What do you mean they'll come for us next?"
They're having a "hans, are we the baddies?" moment

Why are you platforming this convicted criminal, who is also a russian sympathiser, and spent 4 months in federal prison? why?
Exile him from media. Don't give him the illusion of respectability.
@ICanSeeForever1
It was never just about protecting women, was it? Esp not from Trans people.
It is about defining women, and controlling women's bodies. Just the same endgame as we have seen in the US with R v Wade. How vile of him.

Gasholders / Gasometers.
They are used to hold gas on a local level (ie city) for domestic customers who use it for heating / cooking. They can be expanded to to the top depending on amount stored.
As gas useage decreases, they are taken out of service.

Hiya Jim. Have you tried having a wank? Its a lot less troublesome. Also, no woman owes you sex, EVER - married to you or not. You don't own them. They are not property to be controlled.

@RyanMarino
so.. transMasc people don't exist. Can't get pregnant.
If all you ever do is define "woman" = "people who can birth", that's definition that i) every MRA would agree with and ii) where any woman who doesn't is seen as lesser.
Talk about degrading, and dehumanising language.

Its not cancel culture.
Freedom of speech does not mean freedom from the consequences of that speech.
One of the things about capitalism is that anyone can choose to not use a firm or person.
What they call cancel culture is, in fact, Capitalism working entirely perfectly.

By "date" , we mean "hang around with, thinking he was dating her - where she thought mostly 'who is this creepy man and why won't he go away'?"
@DailyMailUK
Why haven't the police go in and arrested them all yet for breaking rules on lockdown? Like they did a month ago?
Oh, I get it. Sometimes the rules just don't apply for royals, I guess.
Selective policing.
@JohnnyMercerUK
I see "Rt Hon" in your twitter Bio, but I don't see anything honourable in your tweet sir.
Seems You'd rather guttersnipe with point scoring slander than anything else.
1/ When I think of Middlesbrough, i always thought of this building. Somewhere just next to South Bank Railway Station.
It was granted Grade II listed status on 10 Sep 2021 for Architectural and Historical reasons. And demolished 9 days later.
So much for culture.
@scrapegroat
Its called "Oh, hang on, I went to open a new webpage to read up on something mentioned in that tweet so I can reply to it - hang on, what tweet its disappeared now-tough,can you remember who tweeted it? No boo hoo you are out of luck l00s3r" option, i think.
@JamesMelville
Just popped into a local shop in Birmingham. The shopkeep said, “I don't recognise you off the internet, nor do I care. This is just a made up anecdote to make myself feel big".
This sort of thing is happening a lot now. It’s both discombobulating & heartening in equal measure.

I don't see any winner here, except for your taking pleasure by depriving others of watching something they might enjoy.

Just imagine it. First thrusts of a good shag, and then you've got glass embedded in your flesh, you are bleeding to death and end up in A&E with permanent scarring. Either on your forehead or ankles, depending on the position.
Totes realistic.
@okcupid
I also firmly believe that this real name policy will inevitably result in users being stalked and harrassed by people they don't even know exist. And I believe it will inevitably end with at least one user murdered.
Remind me again how this makes female users safer
@sugabelly
@RyanMarino
have wondered "if my definition of womanhood is the same as men's Rights activisits" (ie tate etc.) why is that?
you might have to ask yourself why women are being reduced - by your definition - to little more than incubators.

Civil Service code defines "Failure to follow a reasonable instruction" as a disciplinary offence.
Can asking a civil servant to break the law be classified as a "reasonable instruction"?
I can't imagine how. The PCS Rep in me says "no".

Why bother? You won't do another fantastic beasts movie, you won't release the extended cuts of the movies on disc (outside the first two in the US only) but you'll do a pointless senseless reboot? Just don't bother.

She's not posted in six days, funnily enough in that time there's been a case raised and forwarded to the French prosecution service.
people she can outspend and a wage a financial war of attrition on...but,when it comes to a state prosecutor who isn't scared by this? silence.

They seem to think the real ethos of punk to attack people and minorities ? To exclude others and build your own walled fortress of hate?
That's not punk. That's just hatred.
Having a suspected human sex trafficker rushing to your defence? possibly not the winning move that Russell brand was hoping for , me thinks.

If the Dems haven't earned your vote, that one less vote may well give Trump the edge he needs.

Donald Trump is now older than Joe Biden was when Donald Trump said "He's too old to serve".

O HI QANON,
I hate to tell you this, but any non-state actor using violence to influence a political outcome is, as per the FBI definition, a terrorist organisation.

As a bisexual man, I absolutely do not support Wes Streeting, I do not support you, and I do not support LGBAlliance in any way or form whatsoever.
I do not subscribe to your conspiracy theorising hyperbole designed to attack trans people.

@localnotail
There's a reason for this.
Johnson refused to shake the hands and engage with black people at the Tory Conference in 2019.
Harry is extending him the same courtesy.
@anders_aslund
Trump is putins choice, because Trump would withdraw US support for ukraine, allow Russia's invasion of ukraine to succeed, and legitimise the policy of invading other sovereign nations.
it would weaken the US, and weaken the entireity of europe. Where would next? The Baltics?
@kane_blackwell
People have the right to make judgement on your opinions and decide they don't want to be friends with you anymore.
You best accept that, or you'll be moaning about on th internet. Like some sort of snowflake.
oh. Too late.
@NoToMisogyny
It is 'gendered violence' tho'.
The evidence presented to court has made it explicitly & unambigiously apparent in that the murder victim was someone who was targeted for their gender identity.
Therefore it is 'gendered violence'.
Anything else is an absolute lie. Clearly.
@Independent
No, You don't get forgiveness mr. Hancock.
You knew what you were doing Mr. Hancock. By having an affair and shagging around during lockdown and faking your tears like some sort of impersonation of a human.

@ariehkovler
The mainstream media incited the mostly peaceful protest?
Do mostly peaceful protests storm the US govt buildings, storm the US Congress, the Senate, the Rotunda, and then are seen looting and destroying it?
Me thinks not.
Donald Trump's July 4th,2019 speech;“Army, Navy, Air force, Coastguard, Marines and very soon, Space force...."
Really Donald ? Oh boy. Its almost as if he doesn't know that a Space Force would be illegal under international law (Outer Space Treaty,1968)
I see the Andrew Neill approach to broadcasting seems to be repeating itself.

its really interesting that these owners of country wide aggregated content farms with no regional staff seem to have issue with the BBC filling the gaps for what they have decided to no longer do.

Its easier to succeed with pre-existing contacts throughout the industry you work in, a network of favour and favouritism ,& millions of your parents money to support you from failure & having towork 42 hours a week in a minimum wage job just to pay the rent.

Yeah, she really knows the plight of the people what with being in her own yacht.
No wonder she has nothing else to worry about other than gender neutral bathrooms, rather than overflowing NHS waiting rooms, children in poverty, and black mould on the walls of rented rooms.
