I'm actually impressed by how low she gets without losing her balance.

As she's been doing it for quite a while now, i would have thought they'd have installed a patch to fix that with one of her firmware updates.

I think she is out of support now and so doesn't receive updates.

Bristol bus firm sorry after driver told woman to remove niqab
A bus company has apologised after a driver told a woman to remove her niqab.


The woman was travelling from Easton to Bristol city centre, on 1 July, when the driver told her "this world is dangerous" and demanded to see her face.

She told Bristol Live he "continued to insult" her and made her out to "be a terrorist".

First Bus apologised to the passenger and said the driver had been disciplined over his outburst.


But Rowan Atkinson said Johnson's joke was funny, so that's OK.

It's a pretty good place if you want to make them miserable.

More HOT CORBYN ACTION, as he’s the lead on tomorrow’s Mail, and is also one of the main stories on Sky News tonight:

Jeremy Corbyn is facing fresh accusations of comparing Israelis to the Nazis after a video emerged of the Labour leader claiming actions in the West Bank are like World War Two occupations.

Footage shows Mr Corbyn speaking at an event in which he suggested Palestinians in the West Bank live "under occupation of the very sort that would be recognised by many people in Europe who suffered occupation during the Second World War".

An internationally-recognised definition and examples of anti-Semitism, which Labour has chosen not to adopt in full, includes drawing comparisons of contemporary Israeli policy to that of the Nazis.

Mr Corbyn is now facing claims Labour's refusal to endorse the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance's (IHRA) working definition of anti-Semitism, including all its examples, is being "overwhelmingly driven by his own appalling past statements".

In a video clip, posted on Twitter by a user called "The Golem", Mr Corbyn highlighted "endless road blocks, imprisonment, irrational behaviour by the military and the police" in the West Bank.

He also said: "The Palestinian people are generally very poor and in the case of Gaza, virtually imprisoned within that very small area and facing environmental disaster and catastrophe."

https://news.sky.com/story/labour-anti- ... s-11469216

A memorial wreath in his hand, Jeremy Corbyn stands feet from the graves of terror leaders linked to the Munich Massacre.

The picture was among a number taken during a service to honour Palestinian 'martyrs'.

Buried in the cemetery in Tunisia are members of Black September, the terror group which massacred 11 Israeli athletes at the 1972 Olympics.

One picture places Mr Corbyn close to the grave of another terrorist, Atef Bseiso, intelligence chief of the Palestine Liberation Organisation.

Bseiso has also been linked to the Munich atrocity. Another image shows the Labour leader apparently joining in an Islamic prayer while by the graves.

Last night sources close to Mr Corbyn insisted he was at the service in 2014 to commemorate 47 Palestinians killed in an Israeli air strike on a Tunisian PLO base in 1985.

But on a visit to the cemetery this week, the Daily Mail discovered that the monument to the air strike victims is 15 yards from where Mr Corbyn is pictured – and in a different part of the complex.

Instead he was in front of a plaque that lies beside the graves of Black September members.

'It beggars belief that anyone would wish to honour the terrorists behind the brutal massacre of 11 Israeli athletes at Munich,' said Jennifer Gerber, director of Labour Friends of Israel.

'However, it is sadly utterly unsurprising that Jeremy Corbyn appears to have done so. Others will rightly regard it is as totally sickening.'

How could she possibly come to that sort of conclusion? I am genuinely baffled, unless it is just a (several leagues worse) Boris Johnson 'letterbox' style marketing strategy?

I'm completely exasperated here. What is this gooseberry fool? The UK is facing one of it's most monumental changes in decades, one that profoundly effects my home region, in just over seven months with still no clear plan in place and rather than focusing on that politicians are flinging mud at each other and stoking racial divisions.

It's like sitting on a plane, watching the pilot and co-pilot having fist fight and wondering who the hell is flying the damn thing. Probably that guy from this morning.
