The 43-year old Redditch native says that his incredible talent is “impossible to explain”, but it has enabled him to spot up to 17 suspects in crime per day as they walk the streets of England’s second city. He is even able to identify suspects wearing Covid-19 facemasks.

With much humility, I can identify any woman just looking at their figure. I'm French.

I thought Frenchies were so bad at that, that they couldn't tell which women was their wife ;-)

They are using US faces I guess. ("Liberal" vs conservative.) I am sure they could do the same in the UK but the features would be different. E.g. in terms of smiling. I agree with what they say about the US, but the opposite in the UK, where only Conservatives smile. From my door-to-door canvassing days I found it very easy to spot Liberals.

At the risk of stating the obvious, you weren’t observing Liberals. You were observing Liberals opening their door and meeting you.

"The thing it's got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll's eyes. When it comes at you it doesn't seem to be livin'... until he bites you, and those black eyes roll over white."

What about Lib Dems? We need lots of training examples.

Leftist, Alt Right, Marxist, Nihilist, Neo Celtic Reconstructionists, and splitters, all opinions appreciated. (Obviously that doesn't include Liberal Democrats.)
