Ex-Team USA doctor<br />
Larry Nassar sentenced<br />
to 175 years in prison<br />
SHE IS EVERYTHING. Judge<br />
Rosemarie Aquilina tosses Larry<br />
Nassar's letter after reading it<br />
aloud, as she sentences him to<br />
40-175 years in prison.<br />
Judge Rosemarie Aquilina has<br />
sentenced Larry Nassar to 175<br />
years in prison, where I’m sure<br />
his fellow inmates will be happy<br />
to teach HIM a thing or two<br />
about “flexibility”. #MeTooDo you<br />
understand the systemic incompetence<br />
and complicity it takes<br />
to allow a guy like Larry Nassar<br />
to flagrantly commit those crimes<br />
for DECADES? Judge Rosemarie<br />
by #LARRY NASSAR<br />
Aquilina throwing his letter to<br />
the side like trash<br />
is<br />
everything.<br />
Let the Larry<br />
Nassar<br />
sentencing<br />
be a<br />
clear message:<br />
sexual abuse<br />
can not and<br />
will not be<br />
tolerated. Listen<br />
to women.<br />
Listen. Listen.<br />
Listen.<br />
Believe them. If he weren't going<br />
to jail for 175 years, Donald<br />
Trump and the GOP would likely<br />
support Larry Nassar for the US<br />
Senate.<br />
Its great that Larry Nassar<br />
will rot away in prison<br />
as he should. Now what<br />
must be addressed is all<br />
the officials that knew<br />
about this abuse but did<br />
nothing. When they chose<br />
silence they chose the side<br />
of the oppressor, and they<br />
should suffer the same<br />
consequence.<br />
My kink is Judge Aquilina tossing<br />
aside Larry Nassar’s letter<br />
like the judicial equivalent of a<br />
mic drop what happened to larry<br />
nassar is what should happen to<br />
all sexual predators. no slaps on<br />
the wrist, no bullshit minuscule<br />
sentences, and no excuses for the<br />
abuser. judges from across the<br />
country need to take notes Larry<br />
Nassar jailed, I hope this serves<br />
as a highlight to the men who<br />
“just can’t help themselves” at<br />
back door charity events.<br />
Women:<br />

Why on earth would you be<br />
involved hosting an event as<br />
apparently so degrading to<br />
women as #PresidentsClub?<br />
@DAVIDWALLIAMS exposed<br />
by FT investigation and currently<br />
being discussed on @BBC-<br />
Newsnight ? Having been a hostess,<br />
I can confirm that you don’t<br />
have to sign non-disclosure contract<br />
unless there’s something<br />
an employer wants to hide. 33<br />
years this event has been happening.<br />
They knew. #TimesUp #PresidentsClub<br />
#MeToo #newsnight<br />
What happened at #Presidents-<br />
Club is straight from Jezebel’s<br />
in The Handmaid’s Tale: “Outside<br />
the women’s toilets a monitoring<br />
system was in place.<br />
Financial Times reporters<br />
posing as hostesses filmed<br />
inside the event at the<br />
Dorchester Financial Times<br />
Women who spent too long were<br />
called out and led back to the<br />
ballroom. A security guard was<br />
on the door, keeping time.” #UnderHisEye<br />
Horrified by #PresidentsClub<br />
event and weird to be<br />
in Strasbourg when UK parliament<br />
acting - so proud @jessphillips<br />
@LucyMPowell @joswinson<br />
all there to say #TimesUp and<br />
#21stcenturycalling and show<br />
Britain this stuff isn’t inevitable<br />
or Bantz…<br />
Wonder how the 54% female<br />
staff of ad giant @WPP feel about<br />
their employer sponsoring (and<br />
CEO, COO attending) a boozy<br />
men-only event where young<br />
women “hostesses” are openly<br />
groped.<br />
Clients may not be amused<br />
either #MeToo #PresidentsClub<br />
The party of which I remain a<br />
member. Taking seriously my<br />
‘plausible’ allegation of sexu-<br />
al predation. If you’re dealing<br />
with people claiming that the<br />
#PresidentsClub story is a storm<br />
in a teacup, just tell them it’s<br />
been misreported and that the<br />
massive majority of men in the<br />
room were actually Muslim.<br />
Then watch their heads explode<br />
before explaining that you were<br />
just kidding.<br />
For the idiots claiming #PresidentsClub<br />
women were there by<br />
choice: what luxury & privilege<br />
to be able to argue contrarian<br />
view. Women don’t choose to be<br />
objectified, harassed and paid<br />
less for jobs men define/don’t<br />
want. Our ‘choices’ are shaped<br />
daily by the limits placed on us.<br />
If you are a business and you are<br />
OK with only sending Male executives<br />
to a ‘business event’ you<br />
need to have an f-ing word with<br />
yourselves. #Newsnight #business<br />

Some good #WednesdayWisdom,<br />
don't be like Larry Nassar. Definitely<br />
a sick human being. Larry Nassar<br />
is a monster who deserves to be<br />
castrated.<br />
The bitter truth is the 175 years<br />
will never restore was was taken<br />
from those girls. Larry Nassar, the<br />
USA Gymnastics and Michigan State<br />
University doctor who has admitted<br />
#METOO MOVEMENT<br />
to abusing patients in his care, was<br />
sentenced to 40 to 175 years in<br />
prison. Judge Aquilina sentencing<br />
Nassar: "I'm giving you 175 years. I've<br />
just signed your death warrant. I find<br />
that you don't get it. You're a danger."<br />
175 years in prison<br />
LARRY NASSAR, former Michigan<br />
State sports doctor who admitted<br />
to molesting some of the nation's<br />
top gymnasts, gets 40 to 175 years<br />
in prison as judge declares: "I just<br />
signed your death warrant.” larry<br />
nassar wrote a six page letter to the<br />
judge about how “hard it is for him”<br />
and her reaction is GOLD.<br />
You know you fucked up when they<br />
don't even give you a life sentence ,<br />
but instead 175 years, fuck you Larry<br />
Nassar. Not afraid to say that I hope<br />
Larry #Nassar gets "examined" a few<br />
times in prison. He deserves to get<br />

...a) seen nothing, b) gone home<br />
early, and c) not known they were<br />
providing an auction prize, I’m a<br />
trifle concerned about the eyesight,<br />
stamina and managerial grip of today’s<br />
‘top businessmen’...<br />
Some of the prominent donors at<br />
the #PresidentsClub have lobbied<br />
for lower taxes on the rich. Then<br />
they donate money to hospitals,<br />
and doubtless see themselves as<br />
saints. They do not stop to ask why<br />
public hospitals need donations. To<br />
all those shocked by #Presidents-<br />
Club: @DamianGreen has tabled a<br />
question for #PMQs today.<br />
This is what institutionalised<br />
harassment looks like. The worst<br />
thing about #PresidentsClub is<br />
that I am not in the slightest bit<br />
shocked or surprised by it. It’s totally<br />
gross & totally unacceptable<br />
behaviour but pre #MeToo it was<br />
also totally tolerated. Only in<br />
Tory Britain can an MP use taxpayers<br />
money to heat his stables,<br />
have very ‘interesting’ tax arrangements,<br />
and turn up at the #PresidentsClub<br />
for their latest men-only<br />
gropefest and still be considered a<br />
decent representative of their constituents.<br />
David Walliams won best TV<br />
judge and yet ironically this morning,<br />
it is he who is being judged.<br />
Those of us in the know are unsurprised<br />
of course. “Oh, but my kids<br />
love his-” Not now, supermarket<br />
book buyers.<br />
Not now. #PresidentsClub Just<br />
caught up on the #presidentsclub<br />
piece. Y’know, having worked in<br />
(perfectly normal) bars & restaurants<br />
in the City as an undergrad,<br />
the FT article doesn’t surprise me<br />
one jot. The grotesque, demeaning<br />
way that men would routinely<br />
treat us young women isn’t easily<br />
forgotten.<br />

Imagine living in a country where<br />
celebrating the national holiday<br />

attention than terrorism.<br />

Cher Lloyd is<br />
expecting her first<br />
baby. She married<br />
Craig Monk in 2013.<br />
Their new arrival is<br />
due in May.<br />
Cher Lloyd needs<br />
to call her baby Cher<br />
Lloyd for the banter<br />
so it’s ‘Cher Lloyd by<br />
Cher Lloyd’.<br />
I think all the fans<br />
should get together<br />
and celebrate<br />
Cher Lloyd being<br />
pregnant and her<br />
new music by<br />
listening to sticks<br />
and stones on<br />
repeat and shouting<br />
pigeons randomly.<br />
Sorry Kylie Jenner<br />
you took to long<br />
with the pregnancy<br />
reveal, Cher Lloyd<br />
just announced<br />
her pregnancy and<br />
ended all the cares<br />
anyone had.<br />
‘Kylie your<br />
time is up.<br />
Cher Lloyd's<br />
pregnancy<br />
ended yours.’<br />
‘I’ve been a busy little bee’: Cher Lloyd reveals she<br />
is almost SIX months pregnant with her first child as<br />
she shares photo of herself cradling her bump<br />
SO CHER LLOYD<br />
disappears on us for a year<br />
which is totally fine but she<br />
just dropped TWO BOMBS<br />
at once! how am i supposed<br />
to contain my excitement<br />
now that shes announced her<br />
next album is gonna come out<br />
this year; oh and also SHES<br />
SUPER PREGNANT!!!!!<br />

pregnancy reveal, Cher<br />
Lloyd just announced her<br />
pregnancy and ended all the<br />
cares anyone had *harry pops<br />
back into Cher Lloyd’s life<br />

ed sheeran’s getting married.<br />
cher lloyd’s pregnant. how old<br />
am i. Cher Lloyd is trending<br />
y’all better be making her<br />
relevant.<br />
Stop sleeping on songs<br />
like Sirens and start sleeping<br />
on songs like swagger jagger.<br />
So real celebs like Khloe K<br />
& Cher Lloyd can keep their<br />
pregnancy private for so long<br />
but the world knew about<br />
bananas ‘pregnancy’ before<br />
she even put the pillow on.<br />
Congratulations to Cher<br />
Lloyd Apparently celebrities<br />
can keep pregnancies from<br />
the public as long as they<br />
like.. CHER LLOYD IS<br />
PREGNANT FUCK KYLIE<br />
JENNER. When I saw<br />
Cher Lloyd trending I only<br />
expected to see that she was<br />

Brexit 'has turned<br />
out less badly than<br />
we first thought'<br />
DAVID CAMERON has<br />
admitted that Brexit has<br />
“turned out less badly than<br />
we first thought” and that it<br />
is a “mistake, not a disaster”.<br />
The man who called the EU<br />
referendum says what he<br />
really thinks about Brexit...<br />
In the corridors of the @wef, @<br />
David_Cameron is overheard<br />
speaking with business and<br />
political leaders from around<br />
the world - and they're all<br />
asking about Brexit. #WEF18.<br />
David Cameron is trying<br />
to brush off his culpability for<br />
Brexit by claiming it was just<br />
a 'mistake' - just a little error,<br />
ranking alongside forgetting<br />
your homework or leaving<br />
your child in a pub? Not for<br />
the next generation who will<br />
long suffer the consequences!<br />

Carillion chairman told<br />
people to vote Tory, was a<br />

Theresa May's (and formerly<br />

on corporate responsibility.<br />
says it all, the relationship<br />
between corporations & the<br />

'Brexit's turned out<br />

reckons Brexit is a mistake<br />
not a disaster, which is better<br />
than my assessment of David<br />
Cameron’s<br />
tenure<br />
at No 10, which<br />
was both a<br />
mistake<br />
AND<br />
a disaster. I<br />
think<br />
another<br />
complaint<br />
to<br />
BBC News may<br />
be in order -<br />
the 6pm R4<br />
report on<br />
David Cameron saying Brexit<br />
has not turned out as badly<br />
as he thought? How does he<br />
know? It hasn't happened<br />
yet. BBC B'Fast interviews<br />
'Pensions expert'.<br />
Steve Webb. Forget to<br />
mention he was LibDem<br />
MP and Minister of State<br />
for Pensions in the coalition<br />
government of David<br />
Cameron. #Tart. Do you<br />

convinced by this idiot saying<br />
that???? IT'S A BLOODY<br />
DISASTER NOW AND IT<br />
HASN'T HAPPENED YET!<br />
#StopBrexitSaveOurNHS.<br />
David Cameron, leader of<br />

as bad as he thought and<br />
definitely isn’t a disaster.<br />
And with that we cut to hard<br />
remainers shouting at him<br />
to shut up and stop being<br />
honest. So Play Do faced<br />
pig shagger David Cameron<br />
thinks the Brexit he enabled<br />
is a mistake rather than a<br />
disaster!?<br />

Conservatives scream blue bloody murder,<br />
if anyone disrespects the grieving & reverence<br />
around Anzac Day yet seem genuinely unable<br />
to respect or understand grieving around<br />
Indigenous massacre & dispossession. That’s<br />
racism. Australia Day and the celebration<br />
of the First Fleet is part of Anglo Australia's<br />
founding mythos. Moving the date is not about<br />
reconciliation with Indigenous folks, it's about<br />
destroying anything symbolic of the fact Australia<br />
is primarily an Anglo nation. #AustraliaDay<br />
For those interested, there’s a public BBQ and<br />
celebration today at Moran Reserve, St. Kilda at<br />
2pm. It’s not government endorsed. Not media<br />
sanctioned and promoted. There’s no shame. No<br />
guilt. It’s just some workers celebrating who they<br />
are on their day off today. #AustraliaDay #Sunrise<br />

present. I thank them for the opportunity to live<br />
on this wonderful country. I say sorry for past<br />
injustice and vow to walk with you as we fight for<br />
recognition and respect. #Australia #AustraliaDay.<br />
1788 my dudes. Happy #AustraliaDay.<br />
On this #AustraliaDay I celebrate all the great<br />
things about our country. I also acknowledge the<br />
tremendous damage colonisation has inflicted<br />
upon our First Nations people. I pledge to work<br />
towards changing the date and the flag. #auspol<br />
Tony Blair gave<br />
us the Iraq War.<br />
DAVID<br />
CAMERON gave<br />
us Brexit. Nicola<br />
Sturgeon gave<br />
us baby boxes,<br />
and is "the most<br />
divisive politician<br />
since Thatcher",<br />
according to Richard Leonard.<br />
No Dave, your dad not<br />
wearing a condom was a<br />
mistake, Brexit is a fucking<br />
disaster..actually on reflection<br />
the former was a disaster too.<br />
David Cameron honoured his<br />
pledge to give the people a<br />
vote on UK membership of the<br />
European Union.<br />

During the campaign when,<br />
even as PM he promoted<br />
Remain, he told the people<br />
that their decision would be<br />
final and that the government<br />
would honour it. We voted<br />
Leave. And we will. First I've<br />
heard of "David Cameron"<br />
since he crawled away from<br />
his responsibilities. Wheres<br />
he been and why aren't the<br />
paparazzi making his life a<br />
misery for us?<br />
“Proponents on both side of<br />
the argument will need to avoid<br />
exaggerating their claims,”<br />
said David Cameron five years<br />
ago today. He then went on<br />
to run a Remain campaign<br />
that promised Brexit would<br />
bring economic ruin, mass<br />
unemployment, migrant camps<br />
in Dover, oh, and even WW3.

‘Hate for the<br />
new Leeds<br />
United logo’<br />
The Championship<br />
club unveiled their<br />
new badge design<br />
on Wednesday afternoon<br />
and it's safe<br />
to say fans are not<br />
here for it.<br />
Football fans EVERYWHERE<br />
are laughing at Leeds United after the<br />
club unveiled their new badge... Im<br />
sorry but how many clubs have had<br />
their identity stolen in recent years &<br />
just accepted it? Within half a day of<br />
it happening to Leeds united the club<br />
owners have shit themselves because<br />
of the reaction from the fans & gone<br />
back on their decision.<br />
Leeds united. Different gravy<br />
51,000 have signed the petition<br />
against the new Leeds United badge.<br />
Almost as many as they took down to<br />
Ipswich a couple of weeks ago. A group<br />
of people made a decision which was<br />
deemed, on closer inspection, not to<br />
be in the best interest of the majority,<br />
and was thus overturned. Leeds<br />
United is officially better run than<br />
the country. How on earth has this<br />
happened? We are appalled at the<br />
new badge unveiled at Leeds United.<br />
Shrewsbury Town fans know only too<br />
well the indignity of a shameful club<br />
crest, having endured the clip art lion<br />
2007-2014. Our message to Leeds fans<br />
is to resist this change at all costs. No<br />
surrender #Salop #leedsbadge.<br />
Leeds United Football Club is to<br />
reconsider its new crest, after complaints<br />
from fans led to more than<br />
50,000 people signing a petition urging<br />
for it not to be used.<br />
by #LEEDSUNITED<br />
TODAY I wrote to the Owner /<br />
Chair of @LUFC asking him to think<br />
again and scrap that awful new badge.<br />
Leeds United - and fans - deserve<br />
something better than this.<br />
If you're ever feeling down in<br />
the dumps about your football club,<br />
just remember, at least you aren't a<br />
Leeds United fan. That lot have gone<br />
through some serious shit! It's great<br />
Angus Kinnear<br />
on @BBCLeeds:<br />
"Today's a mixed<br />
emotions. It's not<br />
been my easiest<br />
day in the office.<br />
But it reminds me<br />
of the great club<br />
I'm working for, the<br />
passion that's come<br />
from the fanbase."<br />
that Leeds United can celebrate fans<br />
being at the heart of the community<br />
bu putting them the badge, but not by<br />
reducing tickets priced at £39 in their<br />
East Stand to watch Championship<br />
football.<br />
Dear Followers. This is Leeds United's<br />
new club badge. We invite YOU to<br />
design a better, more fitting emblem<br />
for the club. Please reply with your<br />
best efforts #AltLeedsBadge. Actually<br />
this new @LUFC Leeds United badge<br />

#LUFC badge<br />

IT’S worth noting that the same guy<br />
who oversaw Leeds badge change also<br />
oversaw West Ham’s (Angus Kinnear).<br />
The bloke’s a dickhead. Leeds<br />
United say they have consulted more<br />
than 10,000 people connected with<br />
#lufc about the badge. MD Angus<br />
Kinnear: "Updating the crest is not a<br />
decision we have taken lightly... It is<br />
a symbol of ‘strength in unity’ and a<br />
proud expression of the club’s identity<br />
and history.” Angus Kinnear, Leeds<br />
United Managing Director, on new<br />
crest: “It is a symbol of ‘strength in<br />
unity’ and a proud expression of the<br />
club’s identity and history.”<br />
has potential for conflict resolution on<br />
and off the pitch...<br />
The new signing looks like the<br />
protagonist of a Cbbc show about a boy<br />
who's in a football team with a talking<br />
dog. Rumour has it that Leeds United<br />
are set to announce a new badge at<br />
midday! #LUFC. Petition calling for<br />
Leeds United to scrap their new badge<br />
goes past 40,000 signatures, in five<br />
hours. "Looks like something I made<br />
on pro evo when I was 12."<br />
Just turned on Sky Sports News<br />
... Angus Kinnear "The initial reaction<br />
has been really positive" ... take a look<br />
on Twitter Angus. #lufc #mot #alaw.<br />
MD Angus Kinnear exclusively tells us<br />
that Leeds nited will now re-open the<br />
consultation with fans regarding the<br />
new crest after today’s reaction.<br />
Angus Kinnear still beating the<br />
drum for the Leeds salute being on the<br />
badge. Message not quite registered<br />
yet? #LUFC. I spoke to Leeds United’s<br />
Managing Director Angus Kinnear<br />
about Leeds United’s new badge.<br />
#LUFC. Angus Kinnear (Luton Town<br />
fan) and James Mooney (Everton Fan)<br />
justify the new badge without seeking<br />
approval from a Leeds fan first.
