Hmm, what is this news source? I'm not familiar with The Spectator. Who owns that?

Sir Paul Roderick Clucas Marshall is a British hedge fund manager, philanthropist, and media baron. He is the owner of UnHerd and The Spectator, and co-owner of GB News. According to the Sunday Times Rich List, he had an estimated net worth of £875 million in 2024, up from £630 million in 2020.

Who is the writer of the article, Jane Stannus?:

Oh, I see. A PP glazer and writer for Catholic publications. Not Canadian, btw. Ok then.

I find it odd that the post article is not stopping extortion but stopping Indian extortion.

This post has more investifative reporting than the editor and "journalist"in the Spec.

Also, don't forget to sign petition e-6879! Don't be distracted by the fact that the biggest imposition on your quality of life is by billionaires who are winning the class war:

Not to be confused with The Hamilton Spectator https://thespec.com/

If we can get rid of the Indian gangs, then we are just left with the Chinese triads and tongs, the Vietnamese gangss, the Sri Lankan gangs, the Russian gangs, the Italian mafia, and let's not forget the homegrown biker gangs.

Fallacy. South Asian gangs are becoming a real problem.

So is blatant racism masquerading as a news publication

[-] lautan@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

Another logical fallacy. I hope these criminals get caught. Have a good day.

Took you a business day to come up with that banger?

[-] eezeebee@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 months ago

What I said is fact. I'm just asking questions.

Time for you to unplug from f***book and right wing (mostly US owned, or in this case British oligarch owned and written by a USian) media for a bit there buddy.

Go touch some grass and maybe read an article from a competing viewpoint once n awhile so you start to notice the blatant lies and brainwashing you are falling victim to. Its disgustingly obvious if you just bother reading both viewpoints and think even a little critically about the information you are being fed.
