Rest of the UK government 🤷🏼♂️
Also, now do Palantir
Better late than never.
Since when was the UK government interested in truth?
When the bullshit personally affects them and their hold on power, easy
The Ministry of Truth has always existed and always tells the truth.
Riots? I haven't heard about this, which riots is he referring to?
Northern ireland.
Theres a whole other post here about the way the uk perceives NI for you to not know this, but its systemic so dont feel too bad.
Get with the times man. You don't need real riots to happen just so you can say there have been riots.
