Only 2 leaders talked about "kindness" the evening of their won election : Carney in Canada and Albanese in Australia. Watch at around the 17-minute mark.

"Do the right thing."

The cherry on top of the ridiculous charges cake.

Will we see a lawsuit now from Kneecap for lost earnings and opportunities as a result of these trumped up charges?

I certainly hope so. Literally only banned from Canada as terrorists last week.

The terrorism case against Kneecap rapper Mo Chara (Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh) has been thrown out by the chief magistrate sitting at Woolwich Crown Court following a technical error in the way the charge against him was brought.

You could literally just toss meth in any (open) fire, or destroy it even more easily without using fire at all, but for some reason the FBI used an animal carcass incinerator in a negatively pressurized animal shelter to smoke 2 pounds of meth with all the staff and animals in the building
