While I’m not on board with Freedom Day, I’m even less on board with putting fucking troops and tanks on the streets against your own population. This is a disgrace. It was bang out of order when Blair put them at airports in the week before the anti-Iraq war march, and it’s bang out of order now.

Didn't fucknuts buy water cannon when he was London mayor? He's a libertarian don't ya know.

Three unusable water cannon bought by Boris Johnson when he was mayor of London have been sold for scrap, at a net loss of more than £300,000.

 

Johnson bought the crowd-control vehicles from the German police in 2014, in anticipation of social unrest, without checking whether they could be used on London’s streets. In one of his most humiliating episodes as mayor, the then home secretary, Theresa May, banned them from use anywhere in England and Wales. It left the capital’s taxpayers with three expensive white elephants.

The current mayor, Sadiq Khan, pledged to claw back as much money as possible on the redundant vehicles by selling them. But after almost two years the mayor’s office admitted defeat in its attempt to find a reputable buyer.

It announced on Monday that it had agreed to sell the vehicles for just £11,025 to Reclamations Ollerton, a scrap metal yard in Newark, Nottinghamshire.

So, 60% of those hospitalised have had both vaccines.  Can anyone explain why that's not incredibly worrying? I can see why people cite "simple maths the more people vaccinated the more people in hospital will be vaccinated".  But I can't quite join the dots.

Probably because on average the people who’ve had both will be far more likely to be in the more vulnerable categories with greater risk factors applying to them. Without the jabs they’d likely have died.

That's a big assumption especially as 60% of the adult population have had both vaccinations.

"Without the jabs they'd likely have died" what a load of fucking hyperbole.
