  1. L- Now that P.M. Keir Starmer is recognized as the former Prosecuting Attorney, in charge of
    deciding policy on the prosecuting of the Mu…. Rape Grooming Gangs, for many years. That
    he achieved the position of Prime Minister is an infamy, that is reminiscent of that line in
    Macbeth “Out Damned Spot!” screamed at the indelible stain of a crime most foul.

    A national reconciliation with the Magna Carta and the Rule of Law is required !

    1. You would have thought that folk like Farage already knew of his past positions.
      The whole think is Kabuki theater.

    2. 5 PM’s in 5 years. I don’t get why the Conservatives during the last election didn’t hammer Starmer over the whole Rotherham thing. This stuff started when Labour was in power. Mind you, Conservatives did pretty much SFA when they got back into power, but at least they started prosecuting the offenders.

    1. Fag = cigarette
      Bollocks = testicles
      Pitch = soccer field
      Tosser = masturbates constantly
      Hate speech = Free, unfettered speech

  2. I don’t think the UK uses the term felon. I think it is a American term, but I ain’t sure.

    1. I am an ex-pat Brit, and can confirm that felon, and it’s derivatives are American terminology. We use crime, etc.

    2. The UK (strictly, England and Wales) stopped using the felony definition for crime in 1967, and it had been much reduced in use before then. At the time of the American Revolution the British felony laws were extremely harsh and their reform was a priority for the newly independent USA, although they continued with the felony / misdemeanor distinction. Nowadays the US system is much harsher than the British especially in regards to post sentence consequences for felons / convicted.

  3. The silver lining here is that the UK may actually be more messed up than canuckistan at the moment.

    1. My next door neighbor was named Dick Johnson … as my kids said … “a name so nice he had to say it twice”

  4. so there ya have it. not so much a legal thing as merely cultural and linguistic
