Except the ICRs will just show a TLS connection to twitface (or whatever it is the cool kids are using these days)...

It does make it easier for them to get twitface to hand over a list of people who were a right twat yesterday, thobut. And makes it legal to pwn the phones of suspected twats in order to read the unencrypted messages.

And send the Sweeney to smash your door in at four am because someone with a vaguely similar name to yours called someone a cunt on Twitter.

Jermey Vine - just listened to him interview Gina Miller on Radio 2.

Reminded me again why I can't stand him.

Welcome to the YACF Super-Twat nomination service.

Please select the area of expertise in which your nominee operates:

Press 1 for so called politicians and journalists, 2 for vacuous 'celebrities', 3 for faded sports stars or 4 for an unholy amalgam of twatishness across several fields.

5 for Bear Grylls
6 for Nigel Farage

(Let's make this as efficient as possible)

"Or, if you don't select any of the suggested options, Michael Gove will be auto-nominated on your behalf."

Please press zero for Trump, one for Farage, etc.

Works for me.

Perhaps this should be something like the UN Security Council, with a limited number of permanent members whose twattery is so well-established as to be beyond doubt (let's say 10, determined by popular vote from a larger selection) with others coming in and out according to recent behaviour. We could also restrict it to British twats since there are too many foreign twats to include, especially if you count each one that voted for Chump.

My 10 nominations would be:

Aaron Banks (highly regarded historian)
Jeremy Corbyn (non-leader of non-opposition)
Paul Dacre (editor of the Daily Mail - need I elaborate?)
Richard Desmond (Pornographer)
Matthew Elliot (Taxpayers' Alliance)
Nigel Farage (Sponger)
Katie Hopkins (failed "Apprentice" contestant)
Boris Johnson (liar)
Owen Jones (know-all do-nothing)
Keith Peat ("Alliance of British Drivers")

I was tempted to include that two who rides around London with about 10 cameras attached to his bike, picking quarrels with motorists, but that discussion probably belongs elsewhere.

Whoever nominated trump, farage and erdogan for 'Time person of the year' shortlist.

hatler · « **Reply #2187 on:** 07 December, 2016, 02:05:18 pm »

That's a sort of meta-Super-Twat.

With all respect, it appears that people are missing the point...

The Person of the Year issue of Time magazine features and profiles a person, a group, an idea, or an object that "for better or for worse...has done the most to influence the events of the year"

If you look at the list of winners, it's not exactly an exclusive list of Good Samaritans - not when it has Hitler, Stalin (twice), Andropov, Nixon (twice), King Faisal, the Ayatollah Khomeini, Deng Xiaoping (twice) and Vladimir Putin on it.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_Person_of_the_Year#Persons_of_the_Year

Was the person who picked Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi (leader of ISIS) for last years's shortlist an uber-clunge? Al-Baghdadi finished in 2nd place behind Angela Merkel.

Right, that's the PSA done, now back to the auto-patellar (sic) reflexive Two Minute Hating...

Time did bottle it in 2001 though - they gave it to Rudy Giuliani instead of Osama bin Laden.

Hoo yuss! And I'll add pinbrained cheese-botherer Liz Truss for her contention that barking dogs will stop drones from being used to smuggle contraband into prisons.

Sheffield Councillor Jack Clarkson (UKIP)

Quote

A UKIP councillor has been accused of racism after saying a Chinese construction firm planned to turn Sheffield Library into “the biggest takeaway this city has ever seen”.

Councillor Jack Clarkson said plans to turn the library into a five-star hotel were a “sham” and said officials had no idea what the building could be used for.

Asked by a fellow councillor to withdraw the remarks Cllr Clarkson refused to do saying: “No I won’t. It could be the biggest Chinese takeaway the city has ever seen.”

Well, you would take away books, so it could just be a really bad pun. But, given his clarification, probably not.
