In the news thread

Fox aren’t covering it at all (of course).

Smartmatic have a very similar case against Fox as well, expected to be bigger.

What disappointed me was that Dominion settled, which meant it never got put to trial (even though as I understand it the judge already told jury they can only find fox guilty). It also means that fox don’t have to admit they lied, which is a disgusting result for democracy.

I’m just hoping the Dominion and smartmatic lawyers are doing a lot of talking to ensure fox get stitched the fuck up. I mean like Dominion settled quick as it was easy, and smartmatic go in hard, don’t settle and force a trial.

He does seems like a particularly nasty piece of work. Which is really saying something for a Tory.

what an absolute Michael Fabricant of the highest order. cannot believe it’s taken this long. i’m sure he’ll land on his feet, fucking cockroach

no apology. blatantly only resigned because he was gently pushed

Have any actual accusations come out? I wonder if we’ll see a Johnson government style series of resignations now.

Unlikely, it’s just “Civil servants” after all, the drones need to be kept in line. No doubt Rees-Mogg will use it as a chance to spout something about “if you came in to the office more you wouldn’t get bullied”

Daily Heil is all over it being snowflakes not being able to handle the real world while showing a picture of Raabs wife trying to smile in a photo that looks like the kind of thing used in Netflix documentaries while the voiceover says “the facade of the perfect couple was just that…then the bodies started to show up”

It would be funny if it did though. It’s ages since politics has given me a proper good laugh.

Actually, wait, no it isn’t! Sunak’s getting investigated for not declaring a conflict of interest that he was asked directly about in PMQs weeks ago. So he didn’t think to properly declare it in the meantime either.

I wish I could find it properly hilarious by it not happening to the country I was living in, and having consequences I’ll likely be shafted by.

I didn’t get it either. Google Pixel 7 Pro and still nothing. Mrs got it. I’m okay with it, ignorance is bliss and that.

Nah, nothing.

Mine didn’t go off. Was in Morrisons without much signal but I heard a few going off around the shop. Not as many as expected though

Mine went off fucking loud.

Mine and every phone went off around me. Loud.

I got it. Lasted about 5 secs

Got it at 3pm, and then the follow-up message about ten minutes later, which blew my mind but can’t be true, surely?

Oh wow it looks like tucker Carlson’s been axed from Fox News. No last show, no farewell episode. Last show was last Friday according to fox. That means he got cut quick, and not on his terms.
