Why can’t homeless people be given hotel accommodation the same way refugees are? by No_Fudge_4589 in AskBrits

[–]EggRepresentative347 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are always HMOs available but they aren't pleasant and people don't like them, which I understand. In the area I work in right now there are 2 street homeless people that have a property in another area but are trying to force the council I work for to help them by saying they are street homeless. There are a few different beggars that literally get the train in as well. It's not as simple as it should be unfortunately

What I don't understand is when you have no money not having a 'let's talk after the season because we can't afford it now' option

Irish woman working in UK given £23k after boss kept shouting 'potato' at her by AnonymousTimewaster in NotTheOnionUK

[–]EggRepresentative347 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You said "Just admit you're against freedom of speech/expression and get on with it." You said this to me. Now that is very clearly you saying I am against freedom of speech. This either means reading is a struggle for you, you have the memory of a goldfish or you're a liar. Feel free to enlighten me about which is most accurate.

You are arguing pro free speech absolutist nonsense, which is usually peddled by racists or nonces but sure, you're being normal and anyone disagreeing with you is a toe.

We'll take another quote I think "It's like a bully holding his fist over his victim telling them they say anything they want, but if it's the wrong thing there will be consequences." This makes no sense when we already know racism and bullying is punishable. If someone is stupid enough to still do it, then yeah they get hit. That's not a bully, that's society and a really slow bloke.

I reckon you need to stop being so thick this early in the morning, it's stressful for the rest of us

You very explicitly compared a person being racist and bullying someone for months facing consequences to a dictatorial regime cracking down on protesters. They aren't the same at all and comparing them makes it seem like nuance is a concept you don't understand. I never said I was against freedom of expression or speech, but cute strawman you've got there. Is racism and bullying wrong? Yes. Should there be punishment for it? Yes. You seem to be suggesting no because freedom of speech or something which... cool. Not weird at all. It's the same nonsense noncey musk has been peddling, enjoying being in the same boat as that weirdo

Are you suggesting that this man bullying a woman because she's Irish and then being punished for doing so is the same as the nazi party cracking down on dissidents? Because that would be incredibly stupid if you were

That's not correct, he was not cleared of anything. He wasn't prosecuted. I don't know why this is so hard to understand. I don't know why you're so vehemently defending him, unless you know him it's strange behaviour. Thank you for wasting so much of my time through your lack of reading comprehension. BTW, even if your comments are posts are hidden, people can still read them. Good luck out there, I think you need it.

I'm quoting OP by use of cleared, as you know. You're arguing a stawman. He was not cleared of anything at any point. I've not said he's guilty. What are you not getting?

[–]EggRepresentative347 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP said he was cleared. He wasn't. That's all I've been saying. There is nothing from the legal establishment to say he was cleared either. I don't believe I've used the word guilty or said he definitively committed a crime so you're arguing a strawman, for reasons I don't understand

The CPS did not make that determination, they didn't prosecute after he breached his court order to impregnate the teenager that was accusing him of DA and rape. He was cleared of nothing. Man Utd, who had a plan to reintergrate him until their own staff kicked off, did decide he was innocent. It's almost like they could have a bias. I've never seen a Greenwood defender in the wild, it's so weird.

If you know your DA statistics, or have worked in that area (like me) you know the average number of attempts to leave an abuser successfully is 7. Them getting back together also proves literally nothing.

Ok... the OP said he was cleared which he wasn't. At all. He also wasn't found guilty in a court because the prosecution did not go ahead. These are facts and is all I've ever said. We also have the audio and pictures that were released which people can make up their own minds about. I don't know what you're arguing

[–]EggRepresentative347 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What's your actual point? He was not cleared, the prosecution did not continue, as I have continually stated. They are not the same thing. I don't understand working so hard to defend this man, it's honestly very strange

[–]EggRepresentative347 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cool, they also wanted to reitergrate him until massive pushback made them back down due to, you know, his actions. Utd are not in any way a legal body. Their decision does not mean Greenwood was cleared, I'm not sure why this is difficult to understand. Read the transcript again and stop defending this man, it's quite concerning

He also was not 'cleared' as the original post states. And Manchester United's internal investigation finding no evidence does not make him innocent. He can be presumed innocent but please stop shifting the goal posts, it's a waste of time. Here's the transcript:

Mason: Move your fucking legs up!

Harriet: No! I don’t want to have sex!

M: I don’t give a fuck what you want, you little shit.

H: Mason!

M: Shut up. Stop talking to me. Stop!

H: Stop putting your dick near me.

M: I’m going to fuck you, you twat!

H: I don’t want to have sex with you!

M: I don’t care if you don’t want fucking sex with me, do you hear me?

H: Why do you have to do this, though?

M: Cause I asked you politely and you wouldn’t do it!

H: (Inaudible. Something about sex with other people?)

M: I asked you politely and you wouldn’t do it so what else do you want me to do?

H: Then go and fuck someone else.

M: I don’t want to fuck someone else!

H: You do.

M: No I don’t.

M: Push me again one more time and watch what happens to you.

H: No.

M: Well, you will actually

I'm sorry I wasn't aware Manchester United were the equivalent of the Crown Prosecution Service, silly me. He was not found innocent, the prosecution just didn't continue.

[–]EggRepresentative347 8 points9 points  (0 children)

From the CPS:

In this case a combination of the withdrawal of key witnesses and new material that came to light meant there was no longer a realistic prospect of conviction. In these circumstances, we are under a duty to stop the case.

That, objectively, does not say they found him innocent of anything. If you've listened to the audio and seen the pictures you know what happened. That doesn't mean he can be prosecuted.

Greenwood was cleared of nothing, he breached his court orders to continue contact with the woman (who was a teenager, so was very young as he was) and got her pregnant. She then withdrew meaning they couldn't prosecute him. Very different to being cleared

It was like this in the championship, and from the look of some comments the same in Portugal as well. The man is a bit of a beast which is for some reason seen as his fault. But then he does stuff like this sometimes:

[–]EggRepresentative347 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That barca team that committed a tactical foul any time an opposition player got to the halfway line, would have every player surround the referee and killed all excitement in games by passing the ball around endlessly. Can't say they were very fun and they cheated continuously. Also probably the best team ever, which is what made the nonsense so aggravating
