“Starmer’s other paedo problem: silence on links of new Zionist peer” by Skwawkbox with The Canary @thecanaryuk@independent-media.co.uk @UKLabour@mastodon.cloud @uk_politics “[UK Prime Minister] Keir Starmer’s Number 10 is refusing to say whether new peer — and ‘Labour Friend of Israel’ member — Matthew Doyle ended his friendship with paedophile former ‘Labour rising star‘ Sean Morton after Morton’s [child sex abuse - my edit] conviction. The PM’s office is also refusing to say what Starmer knew about the status of the pair’s friendship before Doyle was made a peer last month” https://www.thecanary.co/skwawkbox/2026/02/05/starmer-other-paedo/ #Press #SocialMedia #UK #Labour #Starmer #Paedophilia #Doyle #Morton #ChildSexAbuse #Conviction #Mandelson #Epstein #LFI #Zionist #Nonceberg

Since #Trump pardoned every member of the #J6 mob, 33 out of the approximately 1,500 released have been convicted of other #violent #crimes, a rate of 2.2%. Elsenet, sumdood is arguing that this is no big deal because, and I quote, "The national violent crime rate is 4.4%." He argues that therefore, J6ers are less violent than the average person. Unfortunately for him (but fortunately for everyone else!) he's not even close. There were about 1.3 million violent crimes *reported* in the US last year, out of a population of about 330 million. Assuming one criminal and one victim per crime—which isn't necessarily the case, of course, but it's a reasonable approximation—that's a rate of 0.4%, not 4% or more. The #arrest and #conviction rates are much lower. There are about 500,000 violent crime arrests each year, or 0.15%. I can't find conviction numbers at the moment, but they must be lower than arrest numbers: for convenience, let's say 0.10% of the population, 2/3 of those arrested, are convicted. 2.2% is a lot more than 0.10%. Even a #Republican ought to be able to figure that out.
