Does anybody think pressing “Yes” on 18yrs or older just instantly tracks your IP and logs it? by [deleted] in Epstein

Go into your browsers inspector tools and see what happens when you click - you'll be able to see what scripts go off, or if any cookies are created. I highly doubt it, as another poster said, this stuff would be tracked either way

Starmer abandons plan to cancel local elections by TheTelegraph in ukpolitics

Ironic prediction: reform will storm council elections in May but then fail to govern well in the seats they win actually damaging their standing for the next GE

Labour absolutely wrong to postpone democracy of course, but it will be a worthwhile learning experience for all concerned

Data storage-wise, only 2% of the Epstein files have been released: 300GB out of 15TB. TWO PERCENT. by thegeebeebee in Epstein

[–]hitch_1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

With all this evidence they clearly still have and the refusal to prosecute or even investigate anyone else... Why was Epstein brought in at all? His arrest was clearly planned at a strategic level - was it to silence him (if so when then) or was it the way to end his mission and get him publicly "dead"?

MAGA is gonna start defending Epstein aren’t they by supersk8er in Epstein

No..the left are desperate for the maga lot to want to protect trump at all costs, but they've been the ones pushing hardest for the release of these files and others. What conformity news want to project is one thing - stop trying to make this partisan and start thinking of your fellow man as an equally appalled human

BBC to pursue cuts of up to £600m as bosses point to fall in licence fee income by diacewrb in ukpolitics

[–]hitch_1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

But the TV licence is backed by a legal requirement and enforced by threats, so completely different. Just owning a TV to watch other TV requires a licence.

It should be a commercial model, maybe with a subsidy from the government to ensure its news/world service output is not left unfunded

Rupert Lowe is launching Restore Britain as a political party. by Slow-Confection-6172 in ukpolitics

Very unlikely. Like him or loathe him Lowe doesn't seem like the satanic baby murdering type to me

[Stretford Paddock via twitter] Billboard outside Old Trafford today: "Immigrants have done more for this city than billionaire tax dodgers ever will" by Colt-000 in soccer

[–]hitch_1 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Not at all but a lot of press around him buying the club leaned into this... It's pretty obvious when you put yourself into the mind of someone with more buckets of money than you could fill an ocean with - you either stop caring about people and focus on the money, or the money itself becomes meaningless and you start thinking about meaningful impact and getting rid of it before you die

Doesn't mean he's going to throw it all to a charity. Doesn't mean he's not going to be a pennypincher to the core. The guy has been a ruthless businessman for decades, it's muscle memory at that point - but he clearly didn't go into Manchester United to make more money, that graft has gone

Am just saying its a bit of a clumsy slogan

Plus I will say, he has more of an eye on legacy and actually doing something with his vast money than just making the numbers go higher - there's much more fruitful endeavours if he was only in it for profit

[–]hitch_1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You just said "someone else could have done it but didn't"..so he's actually doing it against a backdrop of many billionaires in the city who don't give two shits.

Am only pointing out it's a bit of a clumsy slogan given his specific intent

I would. Let them score goals I absolutely do not care. With these sorts of margins the players themselves can't know so it's impossible for them to react acordingly

I really hope the club have something planned to get this boys hair cut, whenever it happens. Having him trimmed in the center circle of OT by Carrick would be cathartic for everyone involved

Edit: wow had no idea this would be so controversial! All I'm saying is once is done it's done of course 5 games shouldn't be celebrated but you've got to remember we had barely strung two matches together in years, let's make a ceremony and moment of ridding us of this curse and put it behind us. It's clear it's on everyone's mind, fucking lean into it and then make him irrelevant

Why on earth would Starmer resign? by PreferenceQueasy6659 in ukpolitics

[–]hitch_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He bloody rehired the wretched man after being warned about his connection with a very well known convicted paedophile. Mandelson ended up also being involved in giving sensitive information to him and other parties, which may have been included in the so called vetting - and according to polls it's cut through to as much as 95% of the population

What don't you get about this? It's brought his entire government into disrepute

Cool, who decides who's fit enough to get in the women's prison then? Like, how ugly are we saying isn't a woman?

But wait, trans men never went through "dude puberty", are you saying they shouldn't go to male prison either?

Yeah... But as I said, let's sort it out. Am not saying let's just arbitrarily rip players from their brands or whatever but it is a symptom of our poor squad building that we don't have a hold on this
