This thread is a key explanation of why Basu would be a disaster to replace Dick. Plus his wish to target the "far right" threat, vaccine sceptics and who wants to stop using the words Islamist etc for Islamic terror attacks.

Trouble is we might get Mark Rowley instead, who thinks similarly.

Stunningly bad

Can think of some invasive species I wouldn't be keen on eating. Maybe we could encourage some invasive species to start to eat other ones?

Bit too close to home this one. Unsurprising list of names.

It's not just areas in northern England, but all over the country it appears, including the city of Canterbury. Too many of these crimes are often associated with areas where fast food shops have opened, strategic points kept in business by British customers. We need a government that starts tackling the criminality of these places and removing rights of residence. It isn't this one.

Multiracial societies are by their nature inevitably culturally and legally censorious.

"The “legal but harmful” provision has been lambasted by a range of civil society groups and it is the reason we call the Bill a censor’s charter. The effect of this measure would be to cause platforms to significantly expand their already-censorious content policies. This means we will see much more censorship of lawful expression – except this time, it will be state-backed."
