Statistics like 98% of sexual assualt/rape complaints going uncharged and high profile cases of police officers being rapists, plus the horrible process once a woman reports a sexual assault or rape mean that it is totally understandable why there might be a reluctance to go straight to the police. The opportunity to share the experience with a sympathetic journalist who has accounts of similar attacks might seem much more preferable.
The whole innocent until proven guilty line is flawed as well, Saville was never tried in a court.
I cycle most days and pedestrians never cease to amaze me but ringing your bell while on a pavement is pretty arrogant. Also in the park travelling at ridiculous speed while near young children.
I unfollowed after one of his ULEZ rants. I remember seeing a video about people presenting the terrors of electric bikes to a council committee ages ago on his page and remember wondering what the hell that was all about.
A bit late in replying to this. I did the same thing a few months ago. Had to contact Discogs customer service to get it sorted. They “un-cancelled” the order for me, and then it was possible to do a refund.
But yeah, horrible system…
Yeah thats a faff. You used to be able to change order status quite simply. You could set to shipped, then unshipped and add a tracking number if you’d forgotten and stuff like that. Progress eh!
They did that for me in the end but the whole thing took pretty much a week when it should take about five seconds
Yeah, same here. Not doing that mistake again, that’s for sure…
Winner!
Thought they had really tanned upper legs legs until I zoomed in
Worst colour shorts ever.
We need to see the shirt.
I was too focused on the dog tat to notice
What was the record?
Catching up with all the Brand stuff (blissfully offline all week) I was always amazed at how many people fell for this fraud. I remember he did pen a beautifully written tribute to Winehouse after she died so maybe there was a soul there once (?) but seems long lost amidst the ego, opportunistic politics, and what now sounds like an even darker persona
I got a message off a mate of mine last week about him, it read:
‘…On that matter, I was at a party in London circa 2005 with a good mate of mine ex-mrs used to be his P.A, who resigned in haste.
When I asked her why, she looked at the floor and whispered ‘because he punched me in the face”. She was traumatized at having been silenced back then and forced to leave a job she loved…’
I’m guessing from that he’s always been a c*nt.
Him carrying that speaker on his back whilst attending the Anti Vax rallies during covid always made me chuckle.
Liz Truss. WTF! Out of a party, severely lacking in self-awareness, she outshines every chinless ghoul in a cast of many. She’s everything that’s wrong with the libertarian right that the Tories now are. Her speech this week is one of the most jaw-droppingly funny/disturbing things I’ve heard in recent years.
Mike Pence proclaiming on national television that he has been “sleeping with” a non-union teacher for 38 years. His wife.
