Teesside airport

[kippers]

Reporting of higher volume of flights and passenger numbers.

Boreme will be going into another meltdown shortly.

[Bill Buxton]

They do love a good meltdown.

[Bill Buxton]

Lee Anderson is the latest target for their insufferable hate filled virtue signalling.  I don’t suppose it will bother him though.

[Bernie]

I'm using it for work next week. 

The Bore me mob want everything publicly owned.......yet when the local councils bought into the airport they wet the bed

Hairy Vagina just had his pants pulled down on there 

Claims Anderson was a scab but someone just pointed out he didn't become a miner till after the strike

This the guy calling on a review of the death penalty?

Its a popular punishment that politicians wouldn't dare put to a public vote, regardless the thoughts of the Guardians handpicked constituency punters.

[Henry Chinaski]

The uneducated generally favour mob justice including death penalty because they think "clear cut cases" are a common thing, and the legislation will never be abused by people in power or those obsessed with revenge. Police framing and incompetence are still a factor. They still think it will never be them or any other innocent party...

Will be a very dark day in England if it's brought back after the proof that innocent people were executed when we last had it

Mob justice  

Ffs, the same principle of justice would take place.


And when you glibly use the term uneducated, you mean people who are not as clever as you...in your own mind ?

[Henry Chinaski]

Decent people know the murder by the state of even one innocent person is an abomination that can never be justified, hence why we abolished it

Supporters of bringing it back are either naive in the extreme in thinking you can operate it in a way that no innocent person is ever wrongly executed, or they think a few innocent people murdered by the state is a price worth paying

Most likely they never thought about it all - just got whipped into a frenzy of rage and hatred by right-wing tabloids and web-sites

What's it like being so superior Henry old chap?

Dunno Bill. Surely you've read 1984 and "The Trial" by Franz Kafka?

Common thread in most dystopian writing is the powerlessness of the individual and logic/reason in the face of the machinery of "justice" of an authoritarian state with the power to execute

Any system of justice is fallible since it depends on human beings. Unreliable witnesses, incompetent police, corrupt judges and prejudiced jurors. Plus the human tendency to scapegoat outsiders and project negative attributes onto them

Anyone who thinks all that can be relied upon 100% in UK to ensure only those truly guilty of the worst crimes are put to death is very naive in my opinion

[Bill Buxton]

I have read 1984 several times. It's one of my favourite books. I've tried Kafka but his books are akin to having your teeth pulled out. As for the death penalty I used to be very much against it. Now I'm not so sure. Forensic evidence especially DNA can establish with absolute certainty the guilt of some criminals. In these cases the death penalty could be suitable retribution for the crime,as well as saving the taxpayer a whole load of cash.

[Bob End and his Sexy Bitch]

The death penalty certainly has proved itself to be a huge deterrent.

[Squarewheelbike]

So if we reinstate the Death Penalty, will they be carried out at Teesside Airport?

[Bill Buxton]

Could be a tourist attraction. People flying in from all over.

[Bernie]

So if we reinstate the Death Penalty, will they be carried out at Teesside Airport?

Only if the traffic is marshalled better than when they had the airshow on
