minor things that make you fume

Obvious, blatant misinformation by the BBC when reporting news.

The attack on people in a hospital in St. Helens by an Afghan man with a crowbar reportedly triggered by his ‘frustration at not getting an appointment’, which is pure speculation. It totally downplays the established fact that he went to a hospital tooled up with a crowbar in the first place.

Instead of reporting the facts of this premeditated attack, it has been reframed and softened in to ‘someone lost his rag because he couldn’t get an appointment’.

And people wonder why extremism is rising, when people are constantly lied to and manipulated.

The local drug dealers have gotta do something with their money

It's like Passchaendale and the Somme combined here.

They should invest in their raw material commodities and logistics infrastructure for a more profitable 2026. Maybe buy a LinkedIn premium account.

All them 3 for 50s throughout the year guarantees them fireworks for 6hrs constant on bonfire night and new year and is the dealers way of giving back to the community.

How do you know it’s speculative? Or are you speculating?
