It's okay Chris, I just found out Hutchinson is still running.
The Post Office and Fujitsu should be subject to a class action suit for very substantial damages.
Reminder that Chris Christie embezzled hurricane sandy relief funds
This scandal has been around for decades and suddenly, the idiotic public are aware of it and there is a massive uproar.
He’s just interested in saving himself.
Israel is committing genocide
i hope this won't go bad
How will they force Hamas to stop launching rockets?
Indian scam master. How his humble parents can invest sooo much money coming from such humble beginnings
I mean, Israel turned off the water and electricity for a million people to attack a few thousand among them…
Don’t know if that’s legally considered genocide, but I hope we can all agree that moraly that’s absolutely wrong and can’t remain unpunished.
Country's greatest miscarriage of justice.. LOL.. erm.. East India company…
So many Zionists in this comment section trying to sow discord picking at any little thing to try and make the icj case seem lesser. So pathetic.
The postmaster scandal was awful. That said, the idea that it was somehow "The UK's greatest miscarriage of justice" actually made me recoil with the sheer idiocy of what I had just heard. I love a lot of what you do TLDR and I get that y'all are British but please drop the editorializing if it means you'll say blatantly wrong if not outright propagandistic stuff like that.
Chris Christie looks and acts like a Captain Planet villain who was rejected for being too cartoonishly villainous and over the top.
Nikki Haley is NOT anti-Trump! She has tried to play both sides here, but has not been overly critical of Trump.
man must really be nothing going on if Chris Christie's presidential bowout made it
2:34 "[…] that he'd be open to Alan Bates…"
me: Becoming the new head of the post office? Wow, this is the first time that any Government has exceeded my expectations!
"… receiving an honor, such as a Knighthood."
I bet he can do a looooot more good with 3 extra letters in his name than with authority over (and direct insight into) an organization with a culture of lying, neglecting their middle managers and prosecuting innocents.
For the UK "the country's greatest miscarriage of justice" is a topic you could discuss for days before finally getting around to the postmaster scandal.
I wonder how the cancer research wil have an impact on insurance companies
Funny a backwater place like south Africa is quick to point fingers, but won't do the same for Russia.
South africa is last place that should accuse anyone of genocide lmao.
wth is a subpostmaster?
The first actual good idea I have heard coming from sunak, lol. I haven't heard a lot, but everything I did hear up until now was quite negative 😅
Really?! The whole post office kerfuffle is the UK's greatest miscarriage of justice?!?!
Let me slap a history book down on a table and open a random page…
While the comments section probably isn't the best place to get information, is Israel specifically trying to kill civilians knowing that there are no Hamas members amongst them? I'm looking for reputable sources to get more information. I haven't followed it too closely but my understanding is that they're not trying hard enough to avoid civilians that Hamas is hiding amongst. E.g. they have intel that there are a few Hamas members in an apartment building so they bomb it even if they know there are 100 civilians inside. I'm not sure that meets the definition of genocide (though it's quite possibly a war crime) though I guess it depends on the details.
American here. The same election problem is happening all over the world. The alternative right is rising. They are undeniably evil, in particular with regard to hard fought and hard won gay rights. But perhaps even more alarming is that the self anointed enemy of the alt right are neoliberals. The Doha attending, IMF loving, out of touch messianic elites who have ZERO connection with the real person. Joe Biden will lose and neoliberalism will finally come to an end. But who will fill the shoes of the opposition? And that’s a question we will need to ask ourselves globally. Tusk, Starmer… they will also fail to meet the needs of the people and the far right will overtake them as well. So who will oppose the alt right after the neoliberals are electorally defeated? That’s my question.
Really another scandal its going to be hards to recover on this
I read the title as "Has Sunak Saved the Shitpostmasters?"
People say Israel is targeting civilians in Gaza and commiting genocide but if they do they must really suck at it. Even if the 22000 victims (which undoubtably Hamas includex their 8000 dead fighters in) we're actually real and not just made up number by Hamas then concidering how denselly populated Gaza there's suprisingly low amount of civilian casulties. Gaza has 5500 people per km² so just 4 km² worth of people we're killed. This in the end doesn't make a dent on the total population of Gaza, Israeli goverment and army aren't stupid and they realise that the more civilians die the less international support so why loose it when you have nothing to gain from it? It would have to be 100s of thousands of people before it would actually make a noticeable difference for Israel. So I'd actually want to know why would Israel make such a bad trade?
Look into the ADF they have been exposed to talk about mass deportations
U should see what is going on in Polish politics bruh
The only thing Sunak has saved is Labour’s chance to win the upcoming election
Change your lighting please … I toguht I have clouded vision …the light on the left has a horible glare…
There has to be more important news out there to report than Christie not being the Republican nominee. For example I got into work three minutes early today.
2:50 ICJ on anyone's mind?
Good job South Africa. They've been showing some damming evidence
Post-gate.
Oh, the ANC government is a bunch of hypocrites!! They go all out on Israel on how they are breaking international law and doing crimes against humanity! While back home more than 85 South Africans are murdered per day, 40% of the country's water system doesn't meet the requirements for human consumption, the country is in a national energy crisis for 17 year now and still going. They are stealing billions from the country!! Now they want to preach to Israel?
It is a shame that an actual Apartheid state of South Africa, if you think the modern ANC party is not Apartheid lookup the absolute corruption they have caused in South Africa, is calling a justified response Apartheid when the Palestinians are the ones doing all of the lying and intentionally slandering Israel. Maybe South Africa should look to fix their electric grid than call another country out on the ICJ.
I'm South African. Our ANC government is scum of the earth and they have destroyed this country over the last 30 years. They have also supported almost every terrorist organisation in the world as they are terrorists themselves. The world should not take the ANC seriously and most South Africans certainly do not.
Christie never had a campaign like last time he ran for President. DeSantis should quit, same for Ramaswamy. Haley has a really low chance of a win but should stay in to show there are sane Republicans.
> genocide
> South Africa
Don't know how to explain this but he realized that war is supposed to kill people right? Think about it like this how many British people died in the Blitz 40,000. How many German civilians died in Allied bombing runs in Germany 67,000. More people died on one Napalm run on Tokyo than both nuclear bombs and the cows cheese after that combine. War as hell there is no good or bad this battle. If you want to blame someone blame her master using their civilians as human Shields. Plus the whole beheading babies and throwing grenades into houses to kill grandmothers and raping and murdering women into drag on the streets of Gaza kidnapping and all that jazz. this is the government the cousins voted for terrorism.
Thinking about this my Western friends if a criminal gang over the Border went over to your side and did the same things as what happened in October 7th wouldn't you think your government be doing the same thing hell 99% of the time the government over the Border where these people came from would do the same thing to their own people.
Thank you. I’ve been all over yt looking for someone to explain this
