Met police ‘to stop attending emergency mental health calls so officers can focus on crime’
That is what the Met said.  They will not answer mental health calls when no life is in danger.
The solution is quite simple in most cases.  If someone make a call for help with the mental health of a individual, the police simply picks up the caller AND the individual and drops them of at the hospital or health care facility.   That way police don't spend their time baby-sitting.

Paint thrown over Chelsea Flower Show garden in Just Stop Oil protest
Can we find out who these people are so we can throw paint on their garden and their houses?
If the Independent were interested in justice it would publish their addresses.
We didn't get where Stephanie Golder and Rosa Hicks were from, but we did get Ms Goddard from Hebden Bridge, West Yorkshire.  She said: “If you love gardens or growing food, you must trash your garden and all the food it might produce and join in civil resistance.  Unless you trash everything you believe in, you are not one with us.”

The war on women is proceeding apace

Florida senator issues travel warning against ‘socialists’ after NAACP advisory
Because, as everyone in Floriduh knows, socialists are not Americans.   
I think it is also time for a warning to women: “Florida is openly hostile toward women and those that enable them.”  “Before traveling to Florida, please understand that the state of Florida devalues and marginalizes the contributions of, and the challenges faced by, all women and others who work in the Biden Administration."

Boris Johnson referred to police over fresh claims he broke lockdown rules
A source close to Mr Johnson said the claims are “clearly politically motivated”.
I didn't know the police were anti-Johnson. Is there any evidence for that?
Is he saying the police are liberal or labour supporters?

College workers fired for including their pronouns in emails
Good for the University to take a stand, but firing may be a bit excessive.
Couldn't they just say "don't do it again".
All of this pronoun crap in signatures is just attention seeking.

The two-word slur that tells us everything we need to know about Donald Trump
Whack-job D. John Trump, the convicted sexual abuser, knows his slurs.

Does he LIKE seeing people die?

Cillian Murphy finds being photographed ‘offensive’
Don't go out in public, then.
Incidentally, why do you bring gender into this. Are you saying that a woman taking your picture is different than a man taking your picture? Or is you mind so much in the gutter that you think any picture a man takes of a woman is sexual harassment?

Wednesday 10 May 2023

 
What does the E Jean Carroll verdict mean for Donald Trump’s chances in 2024?
The male MAGAts have no problem being led by a sexual abuser. They like it. 
Indeed, they wish they could abuse women in the same way.
The psychology of the female MAGAt is more complex? Do they want to be abused?

Donald Trump found liable for sexual abuse in E Jean Carroll trial
What do you do when the witch hunt actually finds a warlock?

Florida Rejects Dozens of Social Studies Textbooks, and Forces Changes in Others
In this socialist state of Florida, big government in Tallahassee shall decide everything.
If you control the money, you can get text books to teach our children to say anything you want them to say.

If you don't tell use what the slur was, this in a non-story.

Spanish women’s race apologises for ‘housewife’ prize
Some people just WANT to be offended. I thought their explanation was spot on: "we consider this a product with no sexist character and ideal for any athlete who wants to improve their nutritional habits,” Is it only women who want to improve their nutritional habits or can men do that too?   
And of course, a single woman can't have the prize, since it is only for housewives.

Is the Debt Limit Constitutional? Biden Aides Are Debating It.
"the validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned.” 
Sounds even worse than the 2nd amendment: “shall not be infringed.” You can't only not infringe it, you can't even question it.

Will Supreme Court have to answer to ethics rules? Lawmakers ask ‘how low can the court go?’
No, they won't and lower than a snakes belly.

Good for her. She has answered all questions already. Let them read the record with the  the non-partisan ACOBA, with whom she has "fully cooperated" and "given them all the details they requested." Their report will be passed to Cabinet Office and Downing Street.

     So why should she answer questions from a partisan Dowden who just wants a sound-bite to keep himself and his party in the news?
