Geriatric antiscience billionaire works so very hard by digging a hole and talking at new science laboratory with budget half that of his one-day magic bejewelled hat party.

(This is of course a trick question, the Metropolitan Police are happy to arrest you whether you have done a crime or not.)

I wonder, if you 'express regret' after doing a crime, will the Metropolitan Police accept that and not arrest you?

Not just common-or-garden variety fascists, but christofascists.

Can’t say I’m surprised.

The #Republic arrests, next stage:

Monday (last) night a Chief Inspector from the Met & 2 other officers visited Graham Smith, who was arrested but not charged during the #Coronation, to 'apologise' for the six arrests of Republic/Anti-monarchy demonstrators.

Smith: 'I said, for the record, I won’t accept the apology. We have a lot of questions to answer & we will be taking action'!

The Met have also now acknowledged Republic had been working with them so the protests could go ahead.

@rjblaskiewicz Glad to hear it! I have a vague inkling about something from back in the $8chan days…

@xtaldave The thing about Arsenal is, they always try to walk it in.

Am I doing that right?

@markstaylor Touché. Also, there’s a cost of living crisis in the works, which is almost forgotten about. That much lawyerhide would be prohibitively expensive these days.

@xtaldave Clickbait! You should have said “angry Russian man” to make it obvious. Otherwise it would have been one of any number of thin-skinned tiny-membered autocrats/fascists.

@markstaylor I bet finding a complimentary tablecloth that fits is a PITA.

@mazdam @ryancordell Is that an insult? That’s another name for dandelion.

@davep You have my sympathy. 🫣

@xtaldave Christ. As much as I dislike the SNP, the rest of these fuckers* are making it really difficult to even consider any of them.

*except the tories: /never/ vote tory.
