Our resident nonconformist, his word not mine, actually works in compliance at a large corporate
Rebel rebel!
I don't think you can appreciate the level of frustration, helplessness and anger that must build up when you have to keep the fact you're a principled, non conformist rebel under wraps and pretend you're something else entirely for hours and hours every day for years on end

Blah, blah, blah.
As I said, the general public’s perception of mental illness being used as an underlying root cause for acts of violent terrorism is that it’s another Government ruse to rig the deck.
Trust by the public in Government and it’s institutions are at record lows, and that’s not party political; Grenfell this week, the blood transfusion and Post Office scandals are others off the top of my head for why.
I understand that some of the public will have implicit trust in our politicians, or at least some of them to tell us the truth and implement legislation and societal measures that protect the men and women on the Clapham omnibus. We got to see that drone like obedience play out in the pandemic, and to be honest there’s a lot more than I thought there was.
Nonetheless, societal measures are, of course, never more visceral in the hearts and minds of the general public than in law and order policy with respect to the protection of British citizens going about their business in their own country.
As ever time will tell whether religious fanatics that used to be run of the mill, common all garden religious fanatics carrying acts of violence on the unsuspecting general public are now being designated as tragic cases of religious delusion (ie mentally ill).
I am pretty confident that in time this approach will be proved to be just another Home Office/Government stitch up with the media to deflect the underlying fact that there are a fair constituency of people, living amongst us these days, that want to kill us and our children.
They (Governments) can’t tell us that though can they……….

Lovely work, and from someone with north of 60,000 posts on here too.
The needle on your narcissism-o-meter literally span round on this one like Linda Blair’s head didnt it?

Wow, I can understand why some posters on here reference the historical contributions by posters as a “career”.
I can’t hang about I’m afraid I’ve got middle management stuff to do.
Chin chin.
But I don’t “hammer away”, I’m very light-of-touch when it comes to my typing.

I should coco
Not sure you can pin ‘cracking one off in cubicle four to the works Nigel Farage‘ as middle management stuff.
More conspiracy theory nonsense. I preferred it when you at least attempted facts to be honest. But I guess, just like Farage, Trump and the rest of the right wing grift you've found facts have become inconvenient and insinuation and downright lies are far better as a tool to keep the man on the Clapham Omnibus scared of brown people.
Who'd have thought the brave, passport-free, freedom fighter of Marseille would be one of them?

Thanks for keeping us safe from those money launderers by reporting them to the authorities Mr Power.
You‘re the fourth emergency service.

Fair comment Bobster. Off the top of my head the award of Covid PPE contracts to Tory cronies and donors, and before that, the supply of shit computers to schools from another Tory donor, can’t remember who though.
He probably wishes he'd said "thumping away" now as it would have given you less opportunity of a comeback.
I see by your use of capitalisation you subscribe to the Trump school of social media posting.... athough you haven't yet quite got the hang of it....
For maximum effect you should have perhaps also capitalised the words TERRORISTS, SPIT, PISS, SHIT, FOOD, TUCKED, and BEDS.
If you had done perhaps you might have been taken a little more seriously rather than having had to endure the mockery and disdain which you have.
REMEMBER, THE CAPS LOCK IS YOUR FRIEND.

Responding to my post by rudely calling my valid points ‘blah blah blah, isn’t a fair comment - @cunning fergus’s reply to the specific and factual points I raised in my previous response to him was to post a bunch of conspiracy theories that had little to do with the post he quoted as I said above.
It’s not me that posted a load of ‘blah blah blah’
(Although I suspect the rest of your post you were being ironic.)

One minute a poster thinks he is Tommy Robinson and acting out right wing racist hoolie fantasies, the next trying to be an intellectual, the Jordan Peterson stylee racist who can spell correctly and write long posts, he then morphs into TrumpIan style rants with lots of RANDOM words in CAPITALS.
I am concerned that such a poster may have mental health issues in the form of multiple personalities and deserves sympathy rather than mockery so please stop it NSC.

The 27-year-old, of Swinton, had previously been sentenced for some of those offences, the court is told.
A pre-sentence report had views which “raised alarm” with a probation officer, the judge says.
There were hints of a “white supremacist mindset”, Judge Richardson adds."
