Reminds me of a story in the late 1990s where an LNER fast train was stopped at a red signal in rural Lincolnshire and the train full of passengers got a full view of one of the locals shagging a 🐐 

Story was in FHM where the red tops picked it up from, everyone in the barbers was laughing at it! 

Really foul.

Chickens too?! Where will it end? 🙂

The report used by West Midlands Police to justify the ban on Maccabi Tel Aviv fans was generated by the Microsoft CoPilot AI tool, and referenced an entirely fictitious match between Maccsbi and West Ham.

Absolutely remarkable situation, just to placate the local “community”

This is what will happen with further cost cutting, more decisions made via AI slop. It’s helpful as a base for meeting/workshop notes but YOU have to check for accuracy and quality before you even think about packaging it as informing a decision made at that high a level. Doesn’t matter what the sector is, you will fuck up something major if you don’t.

You would think a quick phone call to the Met to see how that "match" went would have been appropriate.

I wonder if copilot will help their chief of police write his CV as he looks for new employment.

Despite all the grief the NHS gets I’ve had a bad ear infection for a week or so and this week got 2 appointments within hours. one I called in the morning and had an appointment 4 hours later and again last night and got an appointment at 10am this morning. Seen straight away by a great doctor who gave me some great advice and support. £38 on 2 separate prescriptions but I’d have paid 100 times that for the pain I was in at times this week

If we get a Reform government you might be able to test that hypothesis. 

 

(In all seriousness, glad it's sorted. Earaches are awful!)

The police wouldn't publicly lie and say there'd been no complaints of criminal damage if there had been, and that Ceno's had been asked to raise concerns if they hadn't. One side isn't telling the truth. 

I liked Ceno's back in the day. No way would I have gone there over recent times though. That's not because of the hotel residents, but because of the knuckle draggers hanging around. 

Of course the police would publicly lie, it’s been proven beyond doubt in recent days. 
“Baying for brown blood”, you say- surely that means the protesters were threatening death to the hotel guests, and as these protests were filmed they should’ve been arrested and charged?

Completely different situation, and force. The Ceno's owners ruined a decent establishment, paid the price, then laid the blame. The police challenged what they said, and it'd be ballsy in the extreme to be dishonest about that at the public level. I prefer the police account here.

If the police in this instance were trustworthy as you state, why haven’t they arrested the protesters for threatening death and injury to the hotel guests by baying for their blood?

No idea, and it's daft asking when neither of us know the facts/evidence. I didn't ask a question if you as I'm not interested in a discussion with you on this.

The problem with the narrative that police are lying is that this was in Southampton, it's been regular as clockwork every Friday, and several hundreds of people, myself included, saw it with our own eyes, chatted with the police and passers by, seen eg the homophobic ticker tape messages, seen and heard the behaviour.

So the idea that ceno are pure and divine and that the police are lying doesn't go very far.

Their business is damaged by decisions and stances they took, they chose a side and got dealt the consequences.  Their name has been mud around Highfield and portswood ever since they started welcoming the flag shaggers. They'll do fine in Pompey if that's where they end up.

In that case best not to type like you know the facts, when in actual fact it’s assumptive cliche ridden twaddle.

 Unsure if this is serious or not? Doesnt this apply to both ends of the political spectrum? I blame X-Files for letting people think that everythig is a conspiracy including conspiracies.

Disgusting. 

Maybe not charging for waste disposal and providing facilities where it can be disposed of free of charge would be a help?

Many moons ago SCC had a bulky refuse service which was popular and would save on clearing up costs in the longer-run. The council here has a brown bin service for lighter waste from gardens and lighter jobs which is about £40 pa, decent value.

If that is how you feel, good for you. Very forgiving, very Christian.
