Conservatives are very emotional. They hate data and facts.

What facts? What data?
Did you read the article?

What colour are weasels? Gray, it would appear. www.bbc.com/news/articles/cpdv6vg3y31oAlso, it feels like she's had her chips when it comes to the consolation prize: it seems unlikely that she'll be wearing ermine either. (See what I did there?)

"envoy to the nations and regions."
That aside, Labour are a bunch of immoral shitehawks, aren't they?

Starmer really has made a clusterfuck out of this. If only a poetry could think of some apt words to describe the difficulties and hazards of being dishonest.

More Show Trial News to stick in the craw of the usual suspects ... 'Man convicted of rioting tried to blow up a mosque' : Chim chiminee, Chim chiminee, Chim chim chiree ...Just look at the state of that! A love-child of Jimmy Hill and/or Bruce Forsyth or wot? Clearly both his oars aren't in the water which, having engaged in right-wing-based intimidation, should come as no surprise to anyone everyone except, perhaps, Neanderthals.

As usual, I can't read the article itself. But what f**k**g hysteria from the subheader: "... is not what people fought and died in the war for". Fer fucks sakes woman! Anyone who fought in the war you're referring to is pushing 100. Nobody being visited by the police about a tweet fought in "The War". What specious dreary hysterical, cliched tat to still use that framing. I bet "Self-righteous pompous, pointless whiny articles" are also not what people fought and died in the war for" f**k off.

It's a brilliant article and harassment of the press is actually not what our Brave Boys died for. Unless you have evidence that they did die for harassment of the press.

Did our brave boys die for women like that to be able to write self-righteous pompous sh*t newspaper articles? Is that what they went over the top at the Somme for? For God, Country, And the Right For Allison Pearson To Write Whiny Crap!

Is this the same Allison Pearson whose Top 10 public opinions have included that ... - the MMR vaccine caused autism (a theory since discredited) - the Belgian bombings in 2016 were, in themselves, justification for Brexit - the introduction of internment camps after the 2017 Manchester bombing was justified - a photo of a child lying on the floor at Leeds General Infirmary in December '19 was “staged” and “100% faked" (since disproved) - during the pandemic, unemployment was a bigger danger than the virus - also during the pandemic, quarantining travellers and the closure of pubs were excessive because COVID-19 “exclusively existed in hospitals and care homes” - again during the pandemic, she would not “demean" herself by wearing a mask - ditto, she hoped her son and everyone in his student house would get COVID-19, buying into Johnson's clear misunderstanding of the term herd immunity- ditto ditto, the government was “pretending a deadly pandemic is sweeping the land”, castigating MPs for not voting to stop the second lockdown - not seeing granny during the pandemic was more likely to kill her than exposure to the virus ? With journalistic power comes responsibility, a trait which I fear she herself lacks, although she would seem to be first out of the blocks in condemning those whom she thinks also have none.

Absolutely not. The idea is that the press controls itself, which certain parts of it demonstrably cannot.

It's always the same with the extreme left: "I disagree with you therefore I want you locked up." Their racist authoritarianism is never far from the surface.

Writing fiction, like she's consistently done over the years isn't actual journalism though is it?

Do they want to lock her up? I couldn't read the article. I think it would be better if publishers just stopped publishing her dribbling nonsense.

Why do the left hate women having a voice?
