@cstross There's none so blind as them that cannot... read? think?
Jesus H. Christ on a nuclear-powered pogo-stick; are "The Fash" really that thick?
@cstross The DVLA has already asked for extra security.
@cstross Strikes me that the only excess we have is idiots.
@cstross The Foreign Office needs to be worried
Similarly... https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/aug/09/confused-anti-vaccine-protesters-storm-bbc-hq-years-after-moved-out
Unfortunately, I don't think their stupidity is going to save us.
@cstross I hear the RSPB are *very* welcoming of migrants, maybe they should be next
I've heard the SBS is just full of people who loves everything about small boats and clandestine landing on beaches. Maybe we should point these "protesters" in their direction.
@skjeggtroll @georgexcollins @cstross and conveniently based just round the corner from the RNLI in Poole
@ben @skjeggtroll @georgexcollins @cstross I know this is a UK-based reference but the Australian in me went "what, old Sex-By-Satellite?" SBS is the name of Australia's *other* public broadcasting channel, famous for showing extremely horny international films late at night.
They also ran Australia's (in)famous migrant comedy, Fat Pizza, the most Lebanese gross-out comedy outside of Lebanon (which rules). So perhaps it's still fitting!
"Stop the boats" is an Australian export after all :/
Huh ... you mean they failed to discriminate between the two acronyms. There's irony.
@cstross It’s recursive (or maybe fractal) idiocy: however, idiotic you think these people are, there’s always another layer of idiocy underneath.
@cstross architects looking nervous.
@cstross it's the same people .....
@cstross What's the British equivalent to #NotTheOnion ?
@cstross Up there with certain rightwing newspaper getting a paediatrician's house firebombed. Apart from *both* versions being honourable, decent organisations.
@cstross
The ignorance about the RNIB and the RNLI is astounding
@cstross if we wanted more proof that right-wing hate and low intelligence go hand-in-hand…
