Will Sharon copy Erika with a Pyrotechnic Widow show.

Sometimes a British worker becomes so shite and unreliable that it’s best to hire a replacement from overseas. Like Ronnie James Dio.

Cancel culture in action

Homelessness charity Centrepoint has announced it will no longer work with Sharon Osbourne, following her public endorsement of a rally organised by right-wing activist Tommy Robinson.

The charity stated it has "no plans to work together in the future" after the television personality expressed support for the upcoming event...

Who could have guessed that actions have consequences?

Ozzy bought some joy to Sharon's life in exchange for stability. Sharon is now joyless.

After all, look what happened to the RNLI. In other news, someone said a homeless veterans charity should be established. In addition to the two hundred-odd already in existence.

Many on the right seem to be very upset that there wasn't a gang rape in Epsom last Saturday. There have been protests for most of the week in Epsom led by the usual suspects complaining that the police have not issued any descriptions of the suspects. The police have now come out and stated that there wasn't any gang rape in Epsom last week. Lots of people on social media are now accusing the police of covering up the crime and hiding the evidence. Some of these bigots really are thick.

Learning about witch trials it used to amaze me how gullible and stupid people were in the pre Enlightenment eras. Not anymore.

It's no surprise that Hopkins (Matthew, not Katie) and the other witchfinders did their best business in small isolated towns distant from centres of learning.


Returning to the present, there's a visible escalation in the slopaganda.

A few years back it was that Waitrose bloke posting brief clips of fight scenes form foreign movies captioned "London has fallen".
Then the Farage riots.
Then GB News essentially repeating Waitrose bloke's tricks, with a side order of "shove a mic and camera in somebody's face".

Next the "respectable" face of the press are fabricating financial service families in "Jane Austen Poverty".
You know the drill - no tax rebate on the nanny fees, reduced to 4 ski-holidays a year to keep Tarquin on the Eton list.
Each story unmasked as fake, but no regulatory action to follow.
"Fictitious stories can't have victims", or some non-sequitorial shit..

And now the Farage / Lowe axis doing well in the polls, but maybe not as confident as they'd like.
Polls slipping a little, some poorly chosen candidates unmasked, the "international christian nationalist" movement stalling.

What would really help them in the coming by-elections?
* A moral panic about transexual 5G fifteen minute cities - with a mosk (sp) on every corner.
* Houses of multiple occupation (Like where I lived as a student or a young worker).
* Crazy net zero by bacon sandwich weirdo Milliband.

But you know what would really help?
* Allegations of a horrific sex crime (check).
* Usual suspects demanding ethnicity details (check).
* A second wave of Farage/Lowe riots (Let's hope not).

Shirley in Solihull has had what they claim to be the world's biggest St George's Day parade for a few years. It's traditionally had a parade of vintage cars, bikers, that sort of thing. This year the 'non-political' organisers got Raise the Colours involved. You can guess the rest.

Not only was he 10, he also lived in Luton, on an estate he described before (presumably to assert his toughness) as very rough. Paradise.

Isn't there a nirvana waiting for us all out there if we're prepared to go for it? According to Tate if we pay for his wise advice.

Casting my mind back to growing up in that area, I don't think that there were actually any pubs on the Marsh Farm estate, and certainly none with gardens. A chippy, and offy and a launderette, but that was just about the sum total of the social infrastructure there.

That whole tranche of Lu'on north was as bleak as you can possibly imagine without bringing Mogadishu in to the conversation. I had escaped by then, although I remember that there was a sort of techno-hippy scene about four miles further away with tons of good quality drugs for fluppence but no regular bus route.

Mister Tate is not a man to be trusted with his stated recollections. Best set before a jury.

The only thing I know about Marsh Farm (and I didn't know it was Marsh Farm till I just looked it up) was this happened there.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/621172.stm

A father of four has been sentenced to life imprisonment after DNA analysis linked him to a murder he committed 14 years ago.
Duncan Jackson, 37, of Runham Close, Luton, Bedfordshire, was convicted of battering and strangling Avril Dunn in Luton on 14 September 1985.

The killer had been brazen enough to appear in the Crimewatch reconstruction.



I guessed it might be Marsh Farm from the way the area looked in the reconstruction. Nick Ross observes that there'd all been "two recent sex attacks" in the place called the Spinney.

I'm kind of fascinated by places that looks like inner cities in regular towns. Obviously in cities, the tower blocks were logical because of the lack of space and the massive overcrowding in the slums that had been there before. I'm sure Luton had overcrowded slums too, but there was surely more space. So why the tower blocks?

Here's the classic of the genre- Hirwaun, a small mining town in RCT, South Wales.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/south_east/3524420.stm

The two tower blocks lasted till 2004.

Wikipedia:

Marsh Farm made national news in July 1995 when the social problems boiled over into three days of rioting. Although local police received the help of the Metropolitan Police riot squad to bring the situation under control,[6] it was the rave organisers Exodus Collective who brought the riots to an end by staging an impromptu party out of town which drew 2,000 young people from the area and calmed them down.[7] The riots also resulted in a policeman being stabbed, all of the estate's public buildings being vandalised or set alight, cars were stolen and then set alight by joyriders as young as 12.[8][9] A less notorious riot also occurred on the estate in July 1992.[10]

Small town tower blocks:
* Greenbelt.
* Existing designs "It's the future".
* Lobbying.

I don’t know if Hirwaun is particularly constrained by Green Belt, more by a lack of people who want to live there. But that sounds like a fair general summary.

There are/were a lot of tower blocks on the edges of Birmingham - Druids Heath, Castle Vale. The reason was probably because when they were built high-rise living was seen as the future.

What does this woman have to do to be recalled?
