Within six years they elected a gay PM (Taoiseach)

He seemed to be a true believer though. I don’t know if you saw going clear but he kept practising scientology even after leaving the church calling it “independent scientology”. If anyone who spoke out was going to go back, it was going to be him

I have no idea why he had the knife be it defence or antagonising, it doesn’t make a difference, its illegal to carry and therefore a crime no matter his intention and from what we’ve been told he didn’t use it. An underdeveloped teen mind will be why he will not have been tried or sentenced as a adult.

So you think everyone should be allowed to carry deadly weapons, that makes things better? Were you glad during school shootings that those men were able to exercise their 2nd amendment rights

I did grow up in a poor area and knew many people who carried knives to look tough which is why I campaigned to make carrying knives illegal. Its not illegal to carry a knife in DC it is in the UK.

It is 100% illegal to carry a knife in the UK. Under 18's cannot legally buy knives in the UK, if you look under 25 you have to show ID when buying a knife. The search was not illegal either

To imply it was an arrest of just a minor implies it was a vexatious arrest of an innocent person. The woman who was strip searched was associated with and in close contact who with someone carrying a deadly weapon who could have handed her anything during the incident and her being strip searched may have had…

Its 100% illegal in London and all the UK and there have been a lot of campaigns to make sure that everybody knows its an offence to carry one. Knives are not sold to under 18's because knife crime is such a problem. My point is that she was interrupting a legitimate arrest. To describe someone who is holding a deadly…

I never said anything about the womans strip search, I made a point that the article and the commenters were describing “the minor” as an innocent person who was also unfairly searched when in reality he was carrying a deadly weapon.

So do I, so do most people and thats not a crime, it is a crime if you carry that kitchen knife with you when you go around town. I’ve been mugged by someone in London with a knife,I was lucky to be uninjured unlike the 1,299 people who were stabbed last year or the 102 who died. If you don’t think its a problem that…

And he could have passed her anything during their contact, it makes searching her more important

Helping a minor who was found to be carrying a 6 inch knife during a search

“announcing that both “sold out in a day.””

Except for women with PCOS are not going to be caught by this new policy because as you said its a minor deviation, its not the same as being intersex and its unfair to compare our struggles to theirs

They stopped chromosome tests in ‘99 back then they used to test every female competitor, now they only do hormone tests in “suspect cases” as far as I’m aware

Sex is binary not gender

I have PCOS and I am no “more manly” looking than any other woman so no you can’t just spot women with PCOS. 95% of women with PCOS have testosterone under 3.1 with 99.9% being under 4.8 (the IAAF limit is 5).

They used to test every female olympian (except Princess Anne) lets go back to that

Its not his wife at the awards ceremony, its his Mother. The first line of his acceptance speech is “I’d like to thank my Mother” and then he points at the woman who takes the phone call.

Yes, I did watch this film too closely, you don’t need to tell me

I liked it! It was campy and fun, made me genuinely laugh at points and bawled my eyes out at one point. It was mostly B sides but its still ABBA so they were great.
The only problem I had with the film was the actor who plays young Colin Firth has a super distinctive voice and I can’t see him as anyone other than…

It was last year, season 3 episode 19. Wasn’t even playing himself so there really was no reason for it, a job could have been given to an up and coming actor without a history of violence instead they gave him another chance
