And more than a hint of baby oilUgh. That pretty much proves its the laziest of lies, then - if she'd thought about it even a little bit, she'd have said something more believable like "smells of cheap shower gel and disinfectant".
I don’t like the Daily Mail for a lot of reasons, and I can’t imagine ever buying it. However, even though I was very young at the time, I was aware of current affairs, and I’ll never forget that they were the only paper repeatedly drawing attention to Stephen Lawrence’s murderers and the failures to investigate properly. Even though they do plenty of other sh*t and always have done, the sheer hideousness of what was done to Stephen, and to his family in the aftermath, means that for me there’s not a lot that can totally outweigh the Mail having been the only media outlet at the time putting themselves on the line to highlight the injustice. The MURDERERS front page was seismic. https://www.theguardian.com/media/2012/jan/04/stephen-lawrence-parents-daily-mail
Thank you for all you do, tender one! I’m sure we’d all chip in to buy you a mansion- you deserve it!I blocked Godley for being a dullard prick. She’s not edgy or funny and having cancer doesn’t give the pass she thinks it does for being vile to people.

Dave you look HAWT
BIB has ended me lol...yes that's exactly her fanbase!!! And they're probably all so disconnected and unrealistic as to the Ways of Woman that they actually think they're in with a chance.There've been two (and a half) other aspects of the VBI that I've seen mentioned:
1) That better-off people are able to trade down, so the person who had been spending 60p on Heinz can avoid the 30% price increase by switching to the 48p Smart Price - whereas the people who had already been buying Smart Price have no lower-priced range to fall back on
1.5) That the better-off people who trade down are now competing with the poorest for the limited supply of Smart Price products, meaning that some of the original Smart Price shoppers will face a rise from 32p to 80p because they now can't find anything other than Heinz in their local supermarket
2) That the better-off people are able to use their resources to buy in bulk which is usually cheaper in the long-run. For example, they might be able to buy a six-pack of Smart Price beans and get 25% off the individual price. This is the aspect that's closest in spirit to the Vimes' Boots Theory - but it's the one Jack talks about least, it's more something that's come from helpful squigs.
How Jack and her crack team of divorced dads ever intended to turn this into a single price index is beyond me.
It feels more like the sort of thing that a big university's Sociology and Economics departments could collaborate on for a year to produce a really interesting paper that no-one will read. The best Jack could do would be to push for that to happen, and then to amplify their work at the end of it.
Yeah, excellent point. That overdone sentimentality is very reminiscent of that.Like 1 of those Saturday Mcdonalds dads who loves them most in theory.
You know they backed the Lawrence family because Stephen’s dad had a trade and he’d worked on the editor’s house? Like he’d redone their electrics or plumbing the year before. They contacted him and that’s why the Mail made it their mission.I don’t like the Daily Mail for a lot of reasons, and I can’t imagine ever buying it.

So yes it was the right thing to do, and I’m not saying itwas exactly nepotism but it would never have happened if that connection
They’re happy to dress up as Batman and climb a roof, but will they turn up every Saturday at 9am for 4 weeks in a row to see their kids, will they shiteLike 1 of those Saturday Mcdonalds dads who loves them most in theory.
Starting in Doctor Imposter.Completely off topic: she really looks like Suranne Jones in this photo.
Ahh...I'm not sure they'd risk big lawsuits, credible death threats and contempt of court just because the editor knew the plasterer. The Mail owners at the time would've had to sign off on their strategy. I mean, maybe Neville's knowledge of Dacre helped him to get in contact but I think the Mail journos, who took a long time to get to know Doreen Lawrence and review the evidence she'd collected, pursued the story and were backed by Dacre because they were convinced of its rightness (at huge personal and financial risk) and not just cos the boss man liked his new plastering job?You know they backed the Lawrence family because Stephen’s dad had a trade and he’d worked on the editor’s house?

I dunno...I know this isn't what you were trying to do but the idea that the huge social justice achievement of the Lawrence family, platformed by brave journos at significant personal and professional risk, can be minimised to, Stephen's dad did some manual work for rich editor man, gives me the ick, a bit. Sorry....
I love you @HotesTilaire and I really value your posts so I'm sorry if I've misread you. Maybe we should stop derailing now and return to the mendacious one.
Never underestimate the ability of the Daily Mail to be cunts.![]()
