I know there are other things going on but I have just discovered this and OH MY GOD. LeaveEU has - WAIT FOR IT - moved its domain to Ireland. In order to stay in the EU

Leave.EU moves to Ireland to keep .EU suffix
The London Economic | It comes amid a bonfire of UK domains which are registered to the EU registry | Politics
thelondoneconomic.com


This made my morning Leave.EU has become leave.UK :D
First to sign up - Sturgeon?

And on the White House front:

White House Deputy national security adviser Matt Pottinger resigned in response to President Trump’s reaction to a mob of his supporters breaching the US Capitol, a person close to Pottinger confirmed to CNN.

White House social secretary Anna Cristina "Rickie" Niceta also resigned Wednesday effective immediately

@WhiteHouse⁩ Deputy Press Secretary Sarah Matthews resigns from the Trump Administration in response to today’s events.

AND

Donald Trump barred Marc Short, chief of staff to Vice-President Mike Pence, from the White House

I was just wondering if, for all his purported "classical" education, Johnson ever read/saw Julius Caesar? For, if vaccination doesn't take off like a rocket, and deaths rise inexorably, the ides of March could see him attacked by his "friends".
With Cove a shoe in for the role of Brutus :D

The Kuensberg statement yesterday that the Capitol invasion as a “scuffle” must go down in infamy.

Reminds me of the Goon Show when the newsreader Wallace Greenslade announced
"There was a minor disturbance this morning in the House of Commons caused by 3,000 rioters" :cool:

When I saw the Capitol had been breached, I absolutely KNEW Trump was behind it.

But that is because I misheard and thought it had been bleached! :cool:

If it had been bleached would that have ensured the first "Covid secure" riot? :cool:

Further to my previous post about the activists that stormed Capitol Hill, some interesting facts have emerged. The guy with the horns that you can see in some of the photos is said to be Jake Angeli, who's an actor. He has been photographed at BLM and climate change rallies. You can't mistake him because of his fairly naked and very tattooed body and he always wears the same horns. In one of the photos of him inside the building, there's a stout beardy guy, who's also quite distinctive. There's a photo of him with a caption "philyantifa.org", though that doesn't seem to be a valid website. I'm wondering if these guys are part of a rentamob group.

Also, the girl that was shot in cold blood by the cops is/was a 14 year Navy vet. Her main role was, wait for it, security! When you look at her photo, she just doesn't look like an activist, who would storm a building, but does look like she could be some sort of special ops agent.

I must admit that my spider senses are saying that the four at the front in this photo just don't look like Trump supporters. What do you think?



He's even wearing the same trousers!

probably fake news...
The PCs themselves will have screen-locked after a few minutes.
I suppose all government PCs have bitlocker installed on their HDD.
Did you see the other photo of the message left on her desk? Again, my spider senses are saying that something's not right. I've been following Elijah Shaffer for some time. He's a genuine frontline news reporter,who normally spends most of his time at BLM/Antifa riots. Again, it just seems very convenient that he got in with the storm troops.

Hancock knows this bloke Quatermass who can knock up a few million gallons...

What can go wrong...

I don't know if you follow the rather obscure Talking Pictures TV (channel 81);
they are serializing Quatermass at the moment.

Angeli was indeed at a Black Lives Matter protest. The problem for far-right conspiracy theorists is that he was there to protest the protest. Indeed, he is a crank himself.

As the Arizona Republic reported, the 32-year-old Angeli is "a QAnon supporter who has been a fixture at Arizona right-wing political rallies over the past year." Back home, he is a fixture at the Arizona State Capitol building, "shouting about various conspiracy theories."

So have I, but I don’t need to carry them around. Just put my watch on and I’m all set. All my bank cards, email, text, contacts calendar & telephone all on my wrist. Don’t even need to carry a phone much these days.
Then someone kills you after torturing the access information from you, hides the body and goes out on a multi card spending spree.

The first rule of security is secrecy, and you've just broken that rule.

the FBI will probably interview him shortly.
Schaffer did say later that wasn't Pelosi's computer on the picture.
Maybe he has now realised what he's done. Pelosi's computer or not, he should have known better than bragging about it on twitter.

TheBlaze Radio Network is a conservative libertarian American radio network - As Elijah Shaffer is a proTrump CT woo merchant I suspect he fitted right in with the brainwashed mob.

Just had our Pfizer Biontech first jabs this morning, the operation seemed to be running smoothly enough, lets hope as Johnson put it "We have a favourable wind in our sails"
That is probably a misquote, I'm pretty sure he meant "sales" not "sails" :cool:

That's good news - did you get a card and if so what was entered on the follow up / 2nd jab part?
