I thought she voted Leaf
<scuttles back to lurking>

😁

Cos you all just had to do that didn't you?

Lettuce be kind to Liz

Yea she'd have been better off asking if that was all that came with her salad 😂

She needs to learn to style it out - or this will get worse

For her----

Leaf poor Liz alone.

She's a gem

😂😂😂😂

A little gem?

I give in. I have no more lettuce based puns in me! You win @itsgettingweird

Poor Liz. Her career sunk like the Titanic hitting an iceberg.

Interesting blog post from The Secret Barrister

Lettuce pray for Liz, although she’s a complete butterhead

I saw her whinge statement that "Far-left activists disrupted the event, which then had to be stopped for security reasons."

No, Miss Lettuce, it had to be stopped because you walked out in a huff

I actually () had some sympathy with her initially as I felt it was a bit much but her over-reaction, added to (as dh reminded me) the pain that so many people continue to endure as a result of her very short time as PM has meant that I now think that LBD could have been even more hard hitting.

And no, Miss Hissy, there wouldn't be the same reaction had far right activists done the same. Couldn't happen. They are notoriously touchy and sensitive and have absolutely no sense of humour. As demonstrated, thanks. Leaf it out.

Heartwarming...

BREAKING: new study says 50 years of tax cuts for the rich failed to trickle down

That was an absolutely fascinating read, thank you for linking it

The title reminded me of a great Northern soul record.
Keep on keeping on ...Nolan porter.

Thanks for this.

Hope you don't mind but I linked it in another thread where some people just can't understand (don't want to listen) to the fact their being caught red handed and appearing at magistrates within a day is normal.

So did I! It's a very useful link.

It's a pretty comprehensive take down isn't it .

There are a significant amount of people who appear to be:-
passionate about fairness & justice but who also

• have no interest in how the justice system operates and/or
• no interest in legislation and court powers and/or
• have taken no interest in ongoing issues within the justice system arising out of Austerity and poor management (court closures/maintenance of court estate/prison building/RASSO barristers etc etc).

It's a brilliant article.

I've also pointed out that is isn't unusual and my cloak police Fb proves that. There's always someone's mug shot charged, arrested, jailed or whatever for shoplifting, burglary or whatever.

People just don't seem to realise something happening daily locally isn't as big a news story as 1000's nationally at once who were all on the news during the crime!

Bob from down the road getting convicted for 3 counts of shoplifting worth £500 and going to jail for 6 months isn't national news!

Absolutely.

Spot on again
