Very odd. Two deaths and several others injured, no one runover by a vessel, nor a jet ski, and no one jumped off the pier. One man held for suspicion of manslaughter. Its not making any sense to me at all. Tragedy.
Government appoint investigator into handling of Covid pandemic. Investigator asks for full disclosure of Ministerial actions. Government refuses to disclose all relevant information. Government sets up for Judicial review/ legal challenge to prevent the full disclosure which is apparently what they requested the investigator to review! Meanwhile the information the investigator requested, has been offered by the person concerned. Doubtless all this wrangling will cost the taxpayers a fortune, put the Covid investigation on hold and damages the public trust that the full facts are being made public. Now why does Rishi want the information to remain secret? As Chancellor, he will feature strongly so what is he hiding?
I don’t think it could damage public trust any further, they are all liars and all in on it together and have been for years. Just damage control for them now ….. bastards.
I’m terrified of beaches. I’ve experienced undercurrents, riptides etc. I tread very, very carefully with open water swimming. Tragic story….
Unless the public still have some faith in the court's holding the Executive to some level of accountability? That all the politicians are liars and have been so for years is certainly true.
Though there is a tourist vessel impounded and cordoned off by police in the harbour. Were all the people injured & killed aboard that craft?
My Grandfather was a Trawler Skipper. He used to say "The sea doesn't like you. The sea doesn't hate you. It just doesn't give a damn about you".
Ultrasonic tracking! Who knew? It has been used since 2016 and I only found out about it this morning. The article makes for an interesting and disturbing read. Advertisers, and who knows who else, using technology that can be used to pinpoint your location and can breach your mobile device's security. I've always known I can't trust what I hear on TV or radio and it turns out I can't trust what I can't hear either. FFS! https://www.comparitech.com/blog/information-security/block-ultrasonic-tracking-apps/
That's why I very very rarely download apps, especially from stores/suppliers etc on the (their) basis it makes your life easier... yeah right Etsy anyone? and will only use android phones because at least if i do it'll ask me to give permission for them to use the phones features. I read only today about a guy who lost 10s of thousands when his Tide (banking) app was compromised probably by software downloaded to his phone via a malicious advert/link that then allowed the scammer to see his screen and therefore all his Tide transactions & account details and convince the guy he was from the bank. And if you really want to get paranoid about phone hacking/tracking then just read about Pegasus... although I doubt I'd ever be important enough to snoop on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pegasus_(spyware)
Write something that doesn’t align with the fallacious world view that Israel thinks you should have and you’ll probably become more important than you ever wanted to be.
i've changed my thoughts massively re: sentencing penalties over the last two decades. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news...-court-bid-to-reduce-minimum-term-of-sentence
TBH I hope he is not ever released. I’ve met a few with convictions for manslaughter none of them regretted the killing.
I was and remain anti death penalty. IIRC the scumbag had his minimum term reduced, but not the maximum term? Forcing convicted people to attend court for sentencing isn't practical. They are very likely to say awful things to the families of their victims, be physically violent and hostile to staff and unlikely to show any remorse. Rishi said he would add 2 years to the fellons sentences if they refused to appear, but in reality what would that mean to someone facing 38 years?
Interesting conspiracy theory on Gaza and the Ben Gurion Canal. It’s certainly not the whole story because Herzl’s plan was to clear Palestine of Palestinian Arabs anyway. https://www.instagram.com/reel/CzEEuW9pRPt/?igshid=MTc4MmM1YmI2Ng==
It’s an interesting claim, could this be why Israel and the Saudis are/were attempting to normalise relations?
