Brendan Cox is a relatively young, alleged, perv. He’s got many years of perving ahead of him. Especially if no one gets to hear about his past, alleged, perviness.

That's true, but don't forget that you're against basing judgements on allegations.

What? You remember everything I write? You’re worse than my wife. At least she doesn’t read anything I write, she only remembers everything I say. Anyway, nothing I say or write is meant to be taken seriously.

up in soviet canuckistan, a politician named patrick brown was recently forced to resign as the leader of the opposition party in ontario following some lurid allegations against him in the media. He was  alleged to have plied young women below the drinking age with alcohol in an attempt to get inside their pants
Now it seems that the allegations may be untrue and the broadcaster knew that when it ran the story,
New information raises questions about allegations against Patrick Brown

@You’re worse than my wife.

Allegedly, I'm the worst wife in the world, but that's based on anecdotal evidence and prone to cognitive bias.

Brendan Cox has stepped down from a couple of charities. Am looking forward to the BBC’s reporting of this. But nothing as yet.

The BBC were the last major news outfit to run this story. I think they waited until it disappeared. Which it didn’t. Then they got lucky that all the usual leftie luvvies crawled out to support him. However I don’t think they’ve got any quotes from the women he allegedly grabbed by their throats while making obscene propositions.

Hey, let’s get a sense of proportion. What’s worse grabbing someone by the throat or making a joke on Twitter? That’s how you determine whether you are on the left or right politically. On the right we think throat grabbing is generally bad. On the left they think that joking is worse.
