This must be a first

The first 'conspiracy theory' I believe

Nigel Farage shouted down by MPs in House of Commons for repeating right-wing conspiracy theory

This is in something called the Indy 100. I must have commented on this rag some time in the past, as I remember thinking it sounded like some kind of car race. Car crash would be a more apt descriptive

Nigel Farage was shouted down by angry MPs in the House of Commons during Prime Minister's Questions (PMQs) on September 11 for repeating a right-wing conspiracy theory.

Hmm. Right wing conspiracy theory? Bill Gates is putting tracking chips in Covid vaccines? Passenger jets are spraying chemicals that turn us gay? Thatcher is still alive and working in a chip shop in Garstang?

The leader of Reform UK claimed there is "two-tier" policing in the country, which is a conspiracy theory that those who are right-wing are treated more harshly than those who are left-wing.

Two tier policing is a conspiracy therory? Well if the news tells us it is, it must be, huh?

Thugs attacking police at Manchester Airport two months ago, and so far charged with nothing, while people who commented on Facebook about the recent riots are fast tracked into prison. That's not two tier justice

White people who rioted arrested and sent down within a week, while brown people who rioted in Leeds not even nicked. That's not two tier policing

Fully equipped riot police turning up to white people kicking off, yet running away from the darker skinned demographic in Leeds. This is not two tier policing

Communities with 'community leaders', such as areas in Brimingham wich recently saw armed people walking the streets and atacking non-whites, including the Sky News crew and the unfortunate guy outside a pub, allowed to police themselves, while white areas get the full crackdown. This is not two tier policing

Weekly pro-Palestine marches through London, attended by screaming racists, allowed to go ahead, while counter protestors standing and holding signs are thrown to the ground and cuffed. This is not two tier policing

 

Weekly pro-Palestine protestors allowed to disrupt London every week for almost a year, in support of a terrorist group that kills and kidnaps kids, while dispersal orders are put in place for the day of the Euro football final. This is not two tier policing

And going back a bit, BLM marching and setting fire to stuff while the police take a knee, then turning up to anti Covid lockdown marches and cracking heads with batons. This is not two tier policing

As quoted in a much better attempt at journalism, "Let’s be frank, two-tier policing is not only real – it is also impossible for any honest person to ignore."

Unfortunately, if you are looking for an honest person, our Government, opposition and legacy media are rocks not worth overturning

England ain't so bad after all

I just had a very strange conversation with a friend. We were talking about visiting the UK on holiday and I asked why anyone in their right mind would want to come here. I may have mentioned the words, shit hole

His faced blue screened for a while, as his brain engaged my thoughts, then he said:

"Nah, it's not that bad. You can play the two penny arcade machines"

He then pulled a small car out of he pockect and said, "That's how I won this".

At which point, he proceeded to put the car on the floor, draw it back and let it shoot off

"I built a ramp for it yesterday and it cleared three foot"

That was when my brain blue screened, before I changed the subject

Mpoxy

There are a large number of stories about Mpox in my MSM feed today, most of them obviously trying to drum up a scare story

 

"Surges"

The scariest thing is not the media doing what the media does, it's all the people in the comments demanding borders be closed, flights grounded etc. Seriously, about 50% of the comments are looking for a return to 2020

I honestly don't think the government would have the gall to do it all over again, for what is essentially and STD for gayers. but you can never be sure in these uncertain times. Two Tier Kier may well be looking for something to take the heat off him at the moment. Something that also gives him a reason to order everyone to stay indoors

And going off his form to date, he may just be looking for another way to totally screw the country. He seems to hate us all, anyway

Of course he will only reluctantly do it, because it's what the people want:

 

Fiction Prediction

Some script writers are good at predicting the future

Some not so good

Anyone recognise the film?

Feckin Cars

I always own older cars, because it's far cheaper and I have a fair bit of mechanical knowledge for keeping them in good condition

Mostly it works out well for me, but sometimes I end up with a car that hates me

 

I'm currently driving an 07 Mitsubishi Lancer. Not the fast boy racer version, the 1.6 family saloon version

 

Five months back, the ABS light started coming on on the motorway if I went over 60mph. It's the kind of thing I'd normally ignore until MOT time, if it's not causing an actual problem, but I also discovered that if you accellerate to overtake between 60 and 70mph, the ABS actually kicked in and using the breaks caused the car to skew to the left and the brakes to totally fail until you came off them and pressed the pedal again

 

Wierd problem and not something I've encountered before, so I took it to the garage

ABS Rings, he said. I've never heard of them before, but apparently all four wheels have little cog things fitted behind the wheel that the ABS sensors read. Mine were all rusted and the sensors were not reading them properly

I bought the front two off ebay for about seven quid and recieved them in a week. I eventually had to get the back two from Germany and it was about two months before I booked the car in the garege with both sets

Niether fit. I'd ordered them from actual  parts suppliers, gave them my reg number and got confirmation they were correct, but no, on both counts

 

The guy at the garage stripped and cleaed the rear ones while he had the car in bits and told me they would now be ok, but we still needed the front ones, so this time I left it up to him

He did manage to find some after a lot of trouble, a little more expensive, and I booked the car in again

Did they fit? Did they fuck

He then suggested buying the whole CV joint assembly, that comes with them attached. With a lack of an alternative, I agreed and booked the car in again for Monday

He rang me Monday night to say they had only just arrived and he would have to fit them tuesday

He then rang me Tuesday night and said they also don't fit (The internal connections were wrong) and he had broken one of the old ones taking it off, as they were siezed. I couldn't borrow the wifes car for work on Wednesday, as she was working, so he lent me his works van

Eventually he had to buy the entire drive shaft assembly for both sides at £94 per shaft. All for a seven quid ring of metal

I finally got the car back last night at 9pm

He originally estimated £200 for the job. £50 per corner for fitting the parts I supplied. After all that fannying about, his all in price came to £260

His original estimate was a bit high because he knows my car is a piece of shit and all the parts are siezed on, but the final bill was a lot lower than I expected. It's a good job I've known him for so long. Any regular garage would have spanked me for that, plus VAT

And I fail to see why the drive shaft assemblies on my model should be different from all the other Lancers on the market. Which reminds me of a story about an old Cavalier...

Swift justice

The two thugs who attacked police officers at Manchester Airport two weeks ago, have yet to be charged
