    The UK really has become an unmitigated shithole ever since the conservatives managed to make Brexit a reality. Nowadays I appreciate the island for having the decency not to touch us, and to serve as both a warning and an example to Europeans about what could happen on the mainland if we let it.

    Fuck the UK (gov) and fuck the Tories.

    One “deeply vulnerable” woman came to him in great distress because the local authority was taking her to court for not sending her 14-year-old daughter into school.

    “Her daughter wasn’t going in because she was pregnant. She was involved in county lines [drug trafficking] and she was being sexually abused by a drug dealer,” he said.

    Wtf England? Whoever set up that needs to be fired.

      Well for that to be true, the cops would need to see 2 unrelated things and then assume a black person committed a crime.
