In this video we explore Burnham’s promise to implement a more representative electoral system in the UK but will he actually succeed where countless other governments have failed – and actually change the voting system?

Nigel Farage said Andy Burnham’s comments about potentially rejoining the EU had given him “the biggest boost in [his] career”. We look at why — even if it seems counter-intuitive — another Brexit debate could actually hurt Farage.

Before the Brexit referendum, a whole bunch of MPs explained to Britain how the economy would collapse post-Brexit. While Brexit hasn’t yet happened, some did say that the destruction would take place immediately after the vote; which didn’t exactly happen as expected. So in this video, we explain what’s happened and why the economy hasn’t done too badly in the end.

Just like a normal citizen with a criminal record will get a harsh sentence I believe and know all involved in organising this Genacide deserve nothing less than a life sentence. They are cowards who prey on weak vulnerable but finally everyone is waking up.

The care home deaths were nothing short of GENOCIDE, plain and simple.
Doctors still refusing to issue a MCCD unless the family agree to have 'COVID-19' put on it, otherwise they are stalling and trying to make things difficult.
The medical profession has become a DISGRACE of which Hitler would rightly be proud.
I cannot believe I have heard of several people I personally know who have had this same problem and I just wonder what sort of people we now have working in the NHS.

In Our Enemy, The State, the author notes how Justice and Law become separated.
A businessman blamed 'work pressure' after he was caught with extreme p*rn involving de*d bab*es. A businessman blamed 'work pressure' after he was caught – his "vile" library of pictures included 500 illegal images which a judge branded "seriously extreme". Sentencing Billson, Judge Garrett Byrne said: "It seems to me he's 63-years-old, he's got no previous convictions, he's pleaded guilty, so he must be in the suspended sentence territory."

This is so very irresponsible, the fact this got past its first internal meeting nevermind proposed in parliament shows an alarming amount of stupidity. We cannot as a society keep stuffing more & more people into prison, prison is necessary unfortunately but it should be reserved for those that are so dangerous they need to be removed and excluded from society- it is not something to be done lightly and should have a very high bar. Yes, people that lie about where they’ve been during a pandemic absolutely need punishment but there are many, many other effective ways of doing that without the disruption to multiple lives and the incredible cost to the state of locking someone up in prison. I am truly shocked at the lack of judgment shown by this idiot, often a minister will do something silly and you roll your eyes and move on, but this proposal is so ridiculous (and chilling for a free democratic society) it immediately excludes him from holding a ministerial role for the foreseeable future. Despite what many claim in heated comments, horrible people that have committed serious crimes do not escape prison, that is just ill informed nonsense from one or two cases that are easy to get worked up over. In recent times, I am more concerned at the speed some are put into prison for minor offenses – but this would be an unprecedented escalation. That said, I do not believe there is a judge that would be so self defeating as to impose this stupidity but that almost makes it worse – if we have a representative government passing laws that are so ridiculous, they’ll never actually be enforced.

5:16 To me, essay mills seem like the symptom of a deeper problem. What makes essays so unattractive that students pay money to avoid them? Is it their lack of time management? Are they just lazy? Maybe these are the issues that should be addressed instead.

I believe you’ve failed to see the potential of risk. It’s not just about lying on a form which is the reason for a 10 year maximum sentence. It’s the consequences of their actions which could introduce a strain which could be immune to the vaccine and then leading to thousands of deaths.

I’m an M.Ed. University of the People student. Instructors check for plagiarism and I run my work through an online plagiarism checker each time before submitting. The existence of essay malls adds another layer of reasons to cast doubt on the validity of my online course, so yes, something internationally needs to be done.
