@nilansaha “Your Scientists Were So Preoccupied With Whether Or Not They Could, They Didn’t Stop To Think If They Should” Please delete this tool, it’s makes everything shittier for everyone.

@Kilsally A sign of the incompetence we've come to expect from Unionism that it took him over two months to fully understand the policy his party adopted while he was ... *checks notes*... DUP Policy Chief. 🤦🏻‍♂️
