A leisurely Sunday read? Watch it, folks!

There are two themes to this post. The first concerns Cummings himself, the power he claims, all of that in the content.  The other is below the screenshot … the process of even getting it to the reader.

Straight to the second theme in this post … the issues in even getting this to you. There was a complaint across the way at our place and I quite sympathise … things were much simpler in IT days of yore. This is partly that platforms have overcomplicated it today for the sake of it … bells and whistles … but some of it is political … to do with censorship, plod at the door in Britain, incarceration.

Have you heard of a lady named Bernie Spofforth?  Maybe another called Allison Pearson? You write a hurty tweet today in this country and they have waited for the pretext.

So, in order to bring you the story, we often have to bury the link, which annoys both readers and us sommit awful.  In the one above, which is an excerpt (allowed for reportage purposes) posted by “Simple” at X, from the Sunday Times interview with Cummings … Simple himself ran a screenshot … therefore the link leads nowhere … but we know it was the ST.

The only recourse for a reader is to find it elsewhere at X, or even on another platform, blogs etc. … or even go to the paywalled ST itself.  Now I did surf a bit to find the url and was going to paste it directly under the screenshot … could not do … not sure it was an issue with plod … more with the ST and copyright/fair usage.

Fine for Ian Hislop to publish and be megafined … he can afford it … we can’t … nor can you the reader. If you’ve read it, you’re guilty of Sunday afternoon reading … a crime in Britain under this communist regime.

Sorry but them’s the times we now live in.
