Just gone back and watched the highlights, Jamie Smith was as 'not out' as Alex Carey. Snicko is fucking useless.

Any player mooted as a potential replacement could hardly be worse.

At least by bowling Australia out early this morning, England put themselves in an excellent position to take advantage of days 2 and 3, the 2 best days tor batting on this pitch.........

They have now decided that the "first black woman in Britain" was in fact more likely to have been white. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/ce86jzgxxy4o

They never do these days. It's as bad as appealing for catches they know they haven't taken, or the batsman hasn't touched. Not quite as much blatant cheating as Premier League footballers, but certainly the "spirit of the game" has been lost. Mind you, WG Grace used to stare down the umpires that gave him out until they changed their minds.

Alex Carey has admitted that he hit the ball where Jamie Smith claimed a catch when Carey was on 76. Snicko detected no contact between bat and ball after England reviewed the on field Not Out decision, so Carey remained at the crease, and went on to score 30 more runs. The company running Snicko have admitted that the wrong stump microphone was analysed; they synchronised the bowler's end mic to the video replay, rather than the batsman's end mic. The DRS replay showed a clear spike, but before the ball got to Carey, so the third umpire ruled that there was "a clear gap" between bat and ball. According to Jonathan Agnew, he has been told by one of the match referees for the series that they are concerned about Snicko's reliability.

They did not "put words in his mouth" but they did miss out almost all of what he actually said, which did indeed change the perception. When he concluded with "fight" it was in the context of what he had previously been saying about 'fighting' the injustice of a "stolen" election, and encouraging the crowd to persuade Congress to overturn the result. The perception the BBC presented implied he was precipitating the violence that followed. Yes, it was likely that a certain amount of unrest might have been anticipated, but Trump did not demand that the Capitol be stormed.

Oh God, more woke madness. How many situations are there now ?

He said all the words, but it was not all the words he said. Or.......,. "All the right words, not necessarily in the right order". By changing the context they changed the apparent intent.

The US is now stalling on the vaunted Tech Prosperity Deal with the UK, which had been announced during Trump's state visit.

Terrorist Attacks - WARNING: CONTAINS DISTRESSING IMAGES

What sort of sick fucker generates AI images of the victims of terrorism then posts them on SM to promote a false narrative of such events having been staged ? -
So is he claiming the entire live TV broadcast of his speech, the tape of which the BBC edited, was a fabrication ?

How do you ensure they don't bunk off at the first stopover and try to return to the UK ? -
He also has to prove he suffered financial loss.
