This was published by the Telegraph minutes (seconds?) before Boris Johnson pulled out of the race. It's vanished from their website, but of course the internet never forgets. Schadenfreude is best served with snacks. So grab your 🍿 and follow the link! archive.ph/LRm6c

Conservative Christian @Dom_Perrottet deliberately pursued his ideological agenda. Despite warnings against lifting too many #COVID19 restrictions too soon, he refused to reconsider, created a mess & wrecked Christmas for millions in NSW. I hope he’s held accountable

There is an obvious difference between Churchill and Johnson. Churchill defeated Germany. Johnson defeated Britain.
Can anyone imagine Churchill pissing about on a visit to a Tyneside shipyard or a West Midlands armament factory? Johnson is the UK PM and in his 50s.

"One reason the full promise of business transformation -- often enabled by technology modernization -- is being missed is because of a consistent inability to properly inform, motivate and integrate key people and talent." -- Listen to Michelle Kent from…lnkd.in/gYzTKSx

This video shows a police officer shooting a black man several times in the back while his three sons watched on. The officers say they were responding to reports of a domestic incident in Wisconsin.

The Latrine Fall of 1184 was a disaster in Germany where a large group of noblemen gathered in a room above a latrine pit to discuss the distribution of power in the Holy Roman Empire. The floor caved in, causing up to a hundred of them to fall in and drown in liquid excrement.

Bill English, wizard behind the scenes of seminal computer technologies, dies at 91. If you've never seen the "Mother of All Demos" (1968), you gotta see it now -- perhaps THE most impressive demo ever. The article has a link to it on Youtube. latimes.com/business/story/2…

Media Watch focused on funding cuts to ABC. we all need to watch out: the government is planning to sell ABC to Murdoch and will say the sale is important to fix our budget. Don’t let them get away with it. #SavetheABC

What a rorted system. It’s somehow against “due process” to spend $120,00 to try and save a nursing home in Murchison but ok to spend $10m on a building in the PMs electorate that has already been built.

Searched the web for one of my old news stories. Found it -- quotes and all -- on the Daily Mail website under a different byline.

In his closing statement, @RepAdamSchiff spoke directly to Republicans. “History will not be kind to Donald Trump. If you find that the House has proved its case, and still vote to acquit, your name will be tied to his with a cord of steel and for all of history.” DAMN.
