    Why bother though given the place is such a nightmare to get into and out of, that's half the reason it had been left to the pyjama crew for so long.

    They won't care what the Pyjama mob get up to as long they get a taste of the sweet natural resources needed to keep them ticking over eg lithium, gold and copper.

    Sharing a border with them makes it even easier.

    The all time classic has to be that recent one (around June time) that confidently asserted something like 82% of people were following COVID rules. I doubt it was ever that high, but that high in June this year, after over a year of this arse? Not a fucking chance in hell.

    I can't even begin to understand his train of thought. Does he think the Taliban were a threat to our Freedom? If not how did the translators protect our freedom?

    I'm on board with letting them seek refuge here. They're at risk and they did play a part in gaining freedom for their own country, but why do people like Femi have to add a layer of bullshit onto everything?

    The Taliban are/were a threat to our freedom in the sense that they harboured terrorists who targeted the west. Whether Femi is thinking this or just trotting out more glib asides for FBPE likes in the hope he will never have to get a proper job, who could possibly say.

    Either way this fella sounds like a total moron who'd have been no great loss had the Taliban got him.

    I mean, I'm a huge Bob Dylan fan so any defence of him is probably going to come across as hero worship, but it genuinely looks to be a very tenuous accusation.

    She claims he groomed and abused her over a six week period in April and May of 1965 at the Chelsea Hotel in New York during a time when his life was very well documented to the point where it's basically fact that he didn't spend more than a couple of days in New York during said period. In fact, for much of it was in England on tour, actually documented by one of the the most famous music documentaries of all time.

    https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/ent...6ad?ri18n=true

    “It’s not possible. Dylan was touring England during that time, and was in Los Angeles for two of those weeks, plus a day or two at Woodstock,” in upstate New York, Heylin told HuffPost. “The tour was 10 days, but Bob flew into London on April 26 and arrived back in New York on June 3.”

    “If Dylan was in New York in mid-April, it was for no more than a day or two,” he added. “Woodstock was where he spent most of his time when not touring. And if he was in NYC, he invariably stayed at his manager’s apartment in Gramercy, not the Chelsea.”

    Heylin also said the singer didn’t start living at the Chelsea Hotel until autumn of that year.

    The alleged abuse would have occurred while a film crew was following Dylan around 24/7 for what became the 1967 documentary “Don’t Look Back.” Heylin said he is skeptical the singer could have gotten away with the alleged abuse during the most documented time of his life.

    lol out loud at all of the seething MPs utterly incapable of processing twenty years worth of delusions and shit policy coming crashing down in a week. As a group they literally have no idea what to do and say about it, which is why it pointlessly went on for years, and why we're now split down the middle between idiots wanting to re-invade the place and muh women 'n' girls.

    On the Dylan stuff it is unlikely but not impossible, my uncle used to work lights at a big theatre that Steven Seagal played a few years ago with his band, apparently Seagal was there with his shaolin monk mate and two suspiciously young eastern european girls and no-one challenged it.

    While looking at an article on R Kelly's trial for being a nonce/perve/rapist or whatever he is, it suddenly struck me how absurd courtroom sketches are.

    Like, why is there someone at a nonce trial with the pastels out doing a full Tony Hart job on some people sat behind a desk? It's ridiculous. If photos aren't allowed then fine but why do we need this?

    It's because of the links to human trafficking and prostitution plus the reputational risk.

    (But you're right that some banks also like to bank for warlords and despots)
