From the page alchresearch linked to:

24/7 news channels usually have a half hour cycle for reporting all the topics they are covering (which isn't everything in any case). It's usually much quicker to press the red button and look up the text for the things you're interested in.
-
In this case, the victim was handcuffed to a bed in the prone position (known to be risky) at a hospital, not out on the street looking for an opportunity to run away.

Bondi Junction was the shopping centre stabbings, the church stabbing was in a different district. The difference in the level reporting could be down to several people killed versus four injured. But the church stabbing is not going unreported. The Guardian's report on the church stabbing includes this about the attacker: A search for "sidney church stabbing" will produce reports from other mainstream media sites with similar details.

I do like they way they called it the National Conservatism Conference even though it is very much an International event. Presumably their supporters wouldn't like them using 'International' because it would imply they were cooperating with foreigners - even though that is exactly what they are doing.
-
It would have been very useful for poor families trying to do online schooling during the pandemic.
-
People don't get called conspiracy theorists for being skeptical of western mainstream media, they get called it for the sources they trust, without any skepticism, instead.
-
I suspect the Post Office will find it very difficult to bring prosecutions themselves now. If they tried, the first thing any defence lawyer would do is point to their misuse of their powers and request that any prosecution should be brought by the CPS rather than POL. After all, if there is a reasonable prospect of a case to answer, the CPS would be happy to prosecute.
-
The Tories have even criticised Starmer for saying he supports Raynor even though he hasn't personally seen the legal advice she received (his team have). That positively invites a response of "I can trust my team to tell me the truth. If Rishi Sunak can't trust his team to tell him the truth that speaks volumes about his party and his command of it".
-
Keep in mind that Iran is supporting proxy wars in the region by funding Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthi's and supporting the Syrian regime. Hezbollah attacks on Israel have increased since the Hamas attack and Israel's response to it. That said, I do think the attack on the Iranian consulate was Netanyahu poking Iran to discourage the US from pressuring Israel to provide food/etc. to Palestinians in Gaza.
-
Keep in mind the police have already investigated this and decided there was no evidence of an offence. If a political party tries to slur another party's MP by making unfounded allegations they'd better be sure that the whole of their party is squeaky clean because they'll have just invited the targetted party to declare open season on all their MPs (including prospective ones, since Raynor's actions were before she was an MP).

So you think she was too stupid/naive to realise the implications of her saying 'every prime minister needs a <slang term for penis>'.
-
Nothing dishonest or deflective about it. It was merely pointing out that they both made the same knob gag and if you had a negative opinion of one of them for doing it you should have a similarly negative opinion of the other. Or do you think Thatcher wouldn't have realised the implications of a female PM saying 'every prime minister needs a <slang term for penis>'?
