Are we going to take an knee and raise a fist? — In a world that has been jumping on top of the issues of racial oppression, taking a stand…by taking a knee…and fighting against the widespread continuous systemic oppression of black people… I do wonder how this might sit with such an ideology when a black police officer physically…

Why moaning about wearing face masks in public places makes you a total fucking prick. Especially if you are a Tory. — When you complain about having to wear your face covering, please bearing something in mind. Imagine you are a police officer. Committed to your job.
