I despair, I really do.

Twitter is a shithole, and the bane of real news reporting.

Skripal, Steele, the story spirals on: 

 

Quote

It never seemed likely to me that the Russians had decided to assassinate an inactive spy who they let out of prison many years ago, over something that happened in Moscow over a decade ago. It seemed even less likely when Boris Johnson claimed intelligence showed this was the result of a decade long novichok programme involving training in secret assassination techniques. Why would they blow all that effort on old Skripal?

That the motive is the connection to the hottest issue in US politics today, and not something in Moscow a decade ago, always seemed to me much more probable. Having now reviewed matters and seen that the government actively tried to shut down this line of inquiry, makes it still more probable this is right.

Scott Walker, 39, of the James Bank Hostel, James Street, appeared from custody at Dunfermline Sheriff Court.

He admitted that on Saturday in Appin Crescent, a public place, he was in possession of an object that which had a blade or was sharply pointed, namely a potato peeler.

 

The arrest comes four months after a man used a potato peeler to hold up a shop so he could steal enough quid to buy a dog for his mother...

The owner Marym Hassan was uninjured in the latest attack but was "absolutely terrified".

The media here is not reporting on the UK link to the trump scandals because they don't want to harm their narative.  I think we should kick out all UK diplomats like we did to Russia. 

 

But your country banning pointy things is to amusing to not point out.

Isn't London a cruise-missile free zone?  

[Sgt.Squarehead]

Regrettably, yes.....So far. 

 

I'm working on it!

Strangely the police haven't charged the girl for stabbing the ghastly shit that tried to rape her.....Are they slacking do you think? 

 

No nor me. 

 

This happened on my local patch, so I'll be watching events very, very closely.

[Oedipus Wreckx-n-Effect]

 

Doing me a big think.

[Sgt.Squarehead]

LOL!  

 

Somebody didn't really think that one through.  

 

Meanwhile, in other news, it's official.....Soviet era nerve agents are crap:

Sergei Skripal is secretly a X-men.

“He was going on about was how he’d brought it from America because Donald Trump had said London wasn’t safe,” according to a witness.
