@SartorialThug @LeeAndersonMP_ Forgivable for somebody with one suit, which they only wear for weddings, funerals and court appearances. Completely unforgivable for a MP.

@LeeAndersonMP_ Name calling is a bit puerile. The best way to settle this little spat is a toe-to-toe straightener in Old Palace Yard. No weapons. Loser has to wear plimsolls with their suit for a month.

@DreyfusJames The vermin pigeons in towns don't even like trees they're rock pigeons not wood pigeons. Wood pigeons nest in trees, pair for life and have territories. Rock pigeons live in flocks, were adapted to roosting on cliffs, and use city buildings as surrogate cliffs.

I live in London, and I'm well travelled. London is one of the safest places I've ever been to. It is a beautiful, diverse and vibrant city and there's no 'no go' zone, absolutely none. Every bit of London, be it posh or poor, is remarkably safe by international standards.

@MistaFrank_ @PeterSweden7 You'd have a point if you were talking about claims like the vaccines are 'safe and effective'.

This should be headline news EVERYWHERE. A Pfizer insider who was former head of toxicology in Europe has just come out and said something that many "conspiracy theorists" suspected. He estimates that 20 000 to 60 000 people in Germany have died from the c*vid vaccine. This was said at a parliamentary enquiry commission in Germany. So why isn't this massive news being reported everywhere? Is the mainstream media that has recieved millions in funding from Bill Gates deliberately covering this up... 🤔

Wow, Tony, old bean. You’re quite the monster misogynist, aren’t you? I think I’ll have to block you. Tough criticism is one thing. But this …

Kemi Badenough lying on @GMB again. "I was only calling to allow US to use our bases" she whines. So, what was all that guff about taking out the ARCHER not the arrows, Kemi? You 100% wanted UK forces to join US / Israel in striking Iran from Day 1. Smug, lying cow.

A British university student is facing prosecution after comparing a Keffiyeh worn by a pro-Palestinian activist to a “tea towel” during Freshers’ Fair at @RoyalHolloway. 20-year-old Brodie Mitchell told the President of the Friends of Palestine Society, Huda El-Jamal, that her keffiyeh looked like a “tea towel” after she called him a “wannabe Jew” because he was defending Israel and mocked him for not wearing a Jewish “hat”. In a classic case of double standards on campus, Brodie was handed a nine-week suspension the following day “for alleged conduct that could be considered hate speech”. He was told his comments were “Islamophobic”, “racist”, and “anti-Palestinian” and was barred from campus and forced to leave his student accommodation. Surrey Police have now confirmed they have sent a file to the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) for a charging decision — meaning Brodie could face prosecution for saying El-Jamal’s headscarf looked like a “tea towel”. Meanwhile, she faced no disciplinary action and continued her studies as normal. Welcome to two-tier Britain. The case could be the first of many, given the Government’s decision to publish an official definition of “anti-Muslim hostility” and encourage universities to embed it in their speech policies. The definition is already being used to silence legitimate criticism of Islam. The Free Speech Union is supporting Brodie. With our help, he has been allowed back on campus, but under conditions that dictate who he can speak to and what he’s allowed to say. With our support, Brodie is taking Royal Holloway to the High Court, arguing he was unfairly forced to miss seven weeks of teaching, potentially delaying completion of his degree. We’ve also provided him with a top-notch criminal legal team in case the CPS decides to prosecute him. His own university, Royal Holloway, is spending nearly three-quarters of a million pounds defending its actions. At a recent hearing, it initially said its total costs could be as high as £734,000, with the risk that Brodie will have to pay them if he loses. In other words, the university is trying to scare him into dropping the case. But we’ve got his back. Welcome to the reality of free speech on English university campuses. In the absence of the complaints scheme that was legislated for in the Higher Education (Freedom of Speech) Act being activated by Bridget Phillipson – she has delayed doing so for 18 months now – these are the ruinous costs facing students who want to stand up for their right to free speech. On this week’s episode of the FSU Podcast, Brodie Mitchell (@BrodieMitchell1) shares his story with @_ConnieShaw. The full episode is available on the FSU YouTube channel (link in first reply).

You wrote all that shit that nobody is ever going to read about double-spacing between sentences...and only single-spaced between them. LOL!

Let me be the 1st to congratulate Illinois on a great season. They should be very proud. Just making it this far is a huge accomplishment for them. No reason to hang their heads. A true happy to be here team. Now it’s up to Michigan to finish the job for the Big 10 as we knew it would be. But it won’t be easy. Arizona is a beast. UConn is UConn. But this is why we are Michigan Men! When others fall we rise. Let’s do it for the conference! Let’s do it for Little Brother and Tommy Sweet 16! Let’s do for Ohio State and their non existent basketball program. Let’s do it for Willy Compton and Nebraska! Let’s do it for all the Illinois fans who I met at my hotel for a brief 1 night stay. Most of all let’s do it for Michigan! The Leaders and Best! #Goblue

They're all wrong. Here's why: monospaced fonts are still a thing. You might not use them, but many do. With monospaced, or any unkerned format, double spacing improves legibility. It's still correct. Often people copy and paste between kerned and unkerned formats, so the convention should be consistent. We've already established that the double space is still better in certain circumstances. If kerning software is thrown off by a double space that's the fault of the software, developer and proprietor. That means insistence on single spacing is wrong. Therefore the only logical conclusion is that double spacing is the way to go, and your cited authorities haven't consulted anybody who understands the issues. That's the problem with authorities. Rulemaking is delegated to the mediocre who just repeat a fashionable trope.

@AndrewAyr @PaulReadGB There have always been weirdos, and in particular weirdos who can't admit they're wrong. There have always been murderers and rapists too, their existence doesn't mean I should approve of them.

@AndrewAyr @PaulReadGB You do realise that nunneries existed during the period your source refers to? Those being a women's space. Therefore, your source doesn't support your assertion.

When the police took my phone, I recovered the WhatsApp messages within a couple of days. Bear in mind they took all my electronic devices, so I had to get back online and get a new phone delivered. Morgan McSweeney would have faced no such obstacles. He'd have been issued a new phone within the hour, and a dedicated team would have recovered everything for him. Unless he instructed them not to recover the messages.
