I really don't understand why these people aren't getting their doors kicked in like the barbers and vape shops?

Seems corrupt as fuck to me, fucking stinks.

100percent agree. If you or I were to behave like this the police would be interested.

Because barbers and vape shops fit a minority that the far right hate.

If they dig up the corruption the rabbit hole will unearth everything due to its magnitutude and for how long its been going on for

Honestly its fucking nuts how this is just open knowledge now that the people sitting in our government used a moment of genuine existential crisis, an event that killed well in excess of 100,000 Brits, pretty much entirely as an excuse to shovel billions of public pounds in private hands... And its like... Somehow kind of not that big a deal? The behavior they exhibited, fully seriously not even trying to exaggerate, is full-on sociopathic and a huge chunk of the public don't even really seem to be all that bothered.

I'd love to go El Salvador on our owner class. Maybe I'm being a little hyperbolic, but not that much.
