Badenoch Criticizes Starmer’s “Unequal” Handling of Southport Killer and Rioters
The protesters, rioters(?) or social media posters were arrested, tried and sentenced quickly and efficiently, exactly in line with the Home Office and Starmer's announcements before their arrest. Ricky Jones (Labour councillor) was caught on video making his statements demanding that throats should be cut. It will be over a year before his case will even come to trial. -

I'm in such a good mood today.
Windup of the week. Bingo Bob is trying on a new moniker. Well done. Not as interesting as his always "I hate everyone, including my wife" characters, but at least Bad Breath Bob is back, no, I mean Bell Boy Bob, oh, whatever, it's phoonkin Bob-Colin FFS! -

China exposes 36 scam gangs targeting victims with 100k callers
Photo courtesy of Bangkok Post By Puntid Tantivangphaisal Chinese police have revealed the shocking scale of international call scam operations, with 36 major gangs employing over 100,000 callers to swindle victims out of their money. The revelation came during a high-profile meeting between Chinese Assistant Minister of Public Security Liu Zhongyi and Thailand’s Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau (CCIB) in Nonthaburi yesterday. Leading a Chinese delegation, Liu sought Thailand’s cooperation in dismantling these criminal networks, many of which operate from Myanmar’s Myawaddy region near Thailand’s Tak province. These gangs have reportedly lured Chinese citizens into crossing the border into Myanmar under false pretences, only to be forced into gruelling work in scam centres under brutal conditions. “Many victims have been assaulted, and some have tragically lost their lives.” Liu highlighted the recent case of Chinese actor Wang Xing, who was duped into travelling to Myanmar for a fake casting audition. Instead of a role, he was held captive by a scam gang before eventually being rescued. The incident has caused widespread concern among Chinese citizens, leading to a drop in tourists visiting Thailand due to safety fears. The Chinese delegation called on Thai police to arrest and extradite gang bosses residing in Thailand and apprehend around 20 suspects linked to Wang’s case. They also urged Thailand to block the resources and financial channels used by these gangs. In response, the CCIB proposed stronger collaboration, including setting up a joint coordination centre to combat call-scam operations. Thai police also requested Chinese support in locating gang leaders and halting the transfer of funds from victims to scammers, reported Bangkok Post. Source: The Thaiger -- 2025-01-28
