Broadcast your bias why don’t you?!

Now you speak for the ‘Black Race’ ?

Played a pivotal role in crushing your Nazis. That’s a good enough legacy on its own.

I say there is a direct correlation between marketing of harmful products and consumption of harmful products. You might think differently. Maybe the people signing off on marketing budgets are irrational. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6520952/

At least you’ve put me right, it’s the lazy. The corporate world can save billions by cutting back on pointless marketing I’l let you tell them, there might be a bonus in it for you.

Oh

To remove your uncertainty in your own assumptions, you are wrong, I do not believe Starmer, or indeed anyone is ‘infallible’, fallibility is, as I have argued elsewhere a very human trait, frequently demonstrated in the administration of justice. What I challenge is the misrepresentation, or indeed omission of facts surrounding this issue of early prisoner release. Is it being perfectly administered? obviously not, is it the grand incompetence some claim? certainly not, is it even something new? no it is not. There are some salient facts: Prisons were already seriously overcrowded in early 2024. The previous Government were already releasing prisoners early to reduce over crowding. The parole regime in place since the 90s was already releasing long sentence prisoners on parole after they had served 50% of their sentence, refer link below. Refer my earlier post explaining the misrepresentation of facts surrounding examples others were citing. So before the election prisons were seriously overcrowded, prisoners were already being released early while under this latest scheme, prisoners are being released after serving 40% of their time rather than the normal 50%. There are obviously problems, but the go way beyond the release scheme. Chronic over crowding of prisons, A failure to build the prisons the nation needs. Chronic shortage of housing and accommodation for prisoners released that predates this scheme. Gaping holes in prisoner rehabilitation programs. Under staffed and underfunded probation services. The imprisonment of the drug addicted rather than treatment. The correlation between homelessness and imprisonment perpetuated by releasing prisoners into the street with no accommodation. And always, the myth of easy solutions to complex problems. https://prisonreformtrust.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/old_files/Documents/Parole Information Booklet.pdf

Yes of course, that’s it, how could I have not known. How about a lack of moral fortitude, do you think that might play a part?

Prisoners were already being released early prior to the election. I provided a link on the matter earlier.

I don’t know that it doesn’t, do you?

I don’t disagree with what Trump is up to and you won’t find me defending any of it, but my anecdote is not a deflection.

Well you did say you detest the man, but don’t you think assuming foreign prisoners are the ones he really cares about is probably taking it a bit too far? By all means deport straight from prison foreigners imprisoned for serious crimes, though that might require a bit of ‘international cooperation’ itself a good thing.

My father told me the same thing so told my boy. ’You’ve gotta pay your taxes son’.

I am frequently critical of some Israeli actions, but not this one. Maybe the world isn’t as monochromatic as you believe it to be.

Clearly a military target. So what’s to say?

You weren’t too keen on democracy in 2020.

Doomed, doomed, we’re all doomed.

It’s a concept of a plan, details aren’t necessary, they only confuse his rubes.

The choices people make are being controlled by corporate marketing. Oh I know, you don’t respond to marketing, you’re a ‘free thinker’.

From first link: “In response, the Ministry of Justice points out eligibility for the scheme is based on the offence, not the offender, and that offenders may be released early from their sentence for a lesser offence when they have previously completed a sentence for a sexual or violent offence.” Your second link is behind a paywall, so I went looking for an alternative, which reveals Lawson Natty has not been released and is awaiting deportation, refer link below: https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-east-news/gordon-gault-killer-lawson-nattys-29874083.amp Your third link: The Republica failed to mention some salient points. Fortunately The Daily Mail provides the important missing details: “A prisoner was arrested on suspicion of rape moments after being set free under Sir Keir Starmer's early release scheme, MailOnline can reveal.” “The man was seen walking out of the gates of the jail before turning his head from side to side in astonishment as he realised police were waiting for him. He allowed himself to be cuffed and led away into a waiting van that took him to a nearby police station. “ “Following an enquiry to the Met, it has emerged the man, 28, was arrested on suspicion of rape, sex assault and a racially aggravated public order offence - raising the question of why he was ever lined up for early release in the first place. “ “It is unclear when the alleged rape took place.” It seems like someone forgot to charge this guy with crimes he committed before he was sent to Prison, which probably explains why those crimes were not considered in his release. Thanks for the links.

Links please.

Living wages for 40hrs work is a better idea.

I want to hear more from Labour on restricting the advertising and sale of the processed foods, drugs and alcohol that are the root cause of so much of the nations ill health.

I’ve not once missed paying income taxes since I started work - not once.
