And the latter is still a big problem when they serve to amplify peoples' worst instincts. Oh aye, I’m sure if the public mood was for full luxury automated communism, Rupe wouldn’t be having that as his editorial line! They backed Blair when it was obvious Labour was going to win, solely so they could do the “It’s the sun what won it” bollocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hallicks Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Blair was chummying up to Murdoch from at least 1995, not that he'd have needed the s*n to win in '97 mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyattSheepMask Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 That picture of the PM “out for a run” that’s been doing the rounds today. Nevermind that he’s wearing a shirt, how has no-one called the bullshit of him being able to run in brogues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here’s a photo op, print it and don’t question it and we will feed you little stories. A nice funny pic to detract your readers from actual stories. If you scrutinise it, we won’t include you in press conferences or answer any of your questions. Client journalism.  It’s the dead cat scenario but we seem to be seeing it with stark regularity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s why, at times, the Scottish Edition will have a radically different opinion than the rest of the U.K. I think it was 2015 they backed the SNP - because they were “holding the Tories to account” - while the English edition backed the Tories to “Stop the SNP!!” I’d imagine the Welsh and Northern Ireland editions are the same. They just work out which way the wind is blowing and then act like they are responsible for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PowerButchi Posted October 4, 2021 Moderators Share Posted October 4, 2021 There is no Welsh edition. We have to swallow the English shite. There used to be a Welsh Mirror, not sure if that's still the case though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunak was on the tv earlier, he was read word for word what was said and replied with “I think that’s a misrepresentation of what he said”. It’s literally what he said you Roland Rat looking motherfucker you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wideload90 Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 More cunty behaviour in recent press. Cancer deaths? No worries. More cuts? Who cares. The Tories could cull children on live TV, shoot the elderly and increase taxes indefinitely and they'd still be in power. Cunts at every turn. Starmer is also a massive cunt for being a letdown. So many open goals missed... The worst government in forever and we've got the weakest opposition. Cunts.

As I always say, the only thing that would make Johnson lose a load of votes is if he converted to Islam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wordsfromlee Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 People complain about Starmer but what about Marcus Rashford? Where has he disappeared too? When is he going to pull his finger out and sort this out? Do your fucking job, mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
