[BREITBART] An Amazon delivery driver in the United Kingdom was recently caught on video defecating in a woman’s garden.
Rebekah Eleanor Read, who lives in Wiltshire, posted the footage of the incident on social media with a caption that read "Amazon....what a pile of [poo emoji] it is literally what they deliver to you!!!"
The footage shows a man wearing a yellow safety vest squatting behind a fenced area with his pants down. He appears to clean himself and throw a piece of toilet paper behind him, then pulls his pants up and climbs the fence.
"Did you see that?," a voice behind the camera asks. "Yeah, f‐king minging [a British term for ’foul-smelling’], isn’t it?," another voice replies.
Before she removed the video, Read posted it to Facebook where it was shared over 3,000 times.
"Yes it sounds funny but it really isn’t...he felt the need to hop over our fence and do a poo in our garden and bag up the tissue and throw in the hedge then hops back over the fence and walks off!!" she wrote.
Read continued by saying that the driver was confronted about the incident, but said he did not seem to care.
"Amazon you need to sort this out immediately!!," Read continued. "Disgraceful behaviour from an employee of yours and for you to just say you’ll sort it...48 hours later it’s still there!! Everyone check your garden for [poo emoji]."
A spokesperson for Amazon was alerted to the incident and said the company is taking the complaint seriously.
"We have very high standards for our delivery service providers and how they serve customers. We are taking this matter seriously and have reached out to the customer to apologize for the experience and offer our support."
That’s nice. But meaningless if the driver was not fired without references after being immediately brought back to clean up his mess. Unfortunately, the New York Post article this Breitbart article linked to adds that according to an Amazon spokesperson the driver works for a third-party delivery service outsourced by Amazon.

Thank you, Whiskey Mike. Exactly the perspective needed, which is what those excitable reporter types couldn’t be bothered to share.The worst flood in two years, forsooth!
[BREITBART] Former Mayor of London Boris Johnson has won the internal vote to become the new leader of the governing Conservative Party, meaning he is due to become the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom Wednesday afternoon.
Mr Johnson beat rival Jeremy Hunt by 92,153 to 46,656 votes, Conservative party officials revealed Tuesday afternoon from a meeting in Westminster’s Queen Elizabeth Hall. The scale of the victory exceeds expectations to some degree, far from the 55-45 vote split suggested Tuesday morning.
Making a brief but characteristically bumbling speech to the assembled party members after the results were announced, Mr Johnson said he would: "Deliver Brexit, unite the country, and defeat Jeremy Corbyn. And that’s what we’re going to do... I say to all the doubters, dude! We’re going to energise the country, we’re going to get Brexit done on October 31st and take advantage of all the opportunities it will bring in a new spirit of can-do.
"And once again we are going to believe in ourselves and what we can achieve, and like a slumbering giant we are going to rise and ping off the ropes of self-doubt and negativity with better education, more police, and fantastic full-fibre broadband sprouting in every household we are going to unite this amazing country and we are going to take it forward."

I predict the Oct deadline shall indefinitely extend on down into the next premiership.

I predict Boris comes away with a real free trade deal with the USA before the October deadline and Europe clambers to appease Britain hoping for the easy access to American markets such a deal would provide despite their own protections.
Good thing Oblahblah opened good relations with our Cuban Friends™
[NY Post] The brains of 40 former staffers at the US Embassy in Cuba who developed mysterious symptoms during so-called "sonic attacks" have visible differences compared to a control group, according to a new study.
The State Department has said the employees developed what became known as "Havana Syndrome" – headaches, dizziness, nausea and other symptoms that arose when they heard penetrating, high-pitched sounds.
MRI scans from the 23 men and 17 women showed changes in brain structure and functional connectivity between different parts of the organ compared with 48 other adults, according to the study by the University of Pennsylvania.
The difference in the brains between the two groups "is pretty jaw-dropping at the moment," lead researcher Dr. Ragini Verma, a professor of radiology at Penn, told Reuters.
"Most of these patients had a particular type of symptoms and there is a clinical abnormality that is being reflected in an imaging anomaly," she said.
However, in findings published by the Journal of the American Medical Association, Verma and her team said it was unclear if the brain patterns directly translate into significant health problems.

Skeptics also have challenged State Department assertions that some unknown weapon had targeted the workers.
Any of those naysayers want a job at the US embassy in Cuba? We'll pay you double what you're making now.
[AA.TR] The Venezuelan vice president announced suspension of all educational and work activities on Tuesday due to what the country’s government called an "electromagnetic attack" which caused a major power cut.
"Unless something urgently required, we recommend you to stay in your homes," Jorge Rodriguez said in a Twitter post. "Starve in the dark, proles!"
Starting from 4.45 p.m. local time (2045 GMT), a new power cut left much of Venezuela ...a country in Central America that sits on an enormous pool of oil. Formerly the most prospereous country in the region, it became infested with Commies sniffing almost unlimited wealth. It turned out the wealth wasn't unlimited, the economy collapsed under the clownish Hugo Chavez, the murder rate exceeds places like Honduras and El Salvador, and a significant proportion of the populace as refugeed to Colombia and points south... without electricity.
"Since the aggressions in March and April this year, the Bolivarian Government has implemented protection and security protocols that allow us to guarantee that we are in the process of reconnecting to restore the electric power service in the shortest possible time," the Venezuelan Presidency said in a statement.
"It's more than 14 hours of national blackout. In 7 states of the country, the service was partially restored and 9 are still without power," Venezuela's opposition leader Juan Guaidó ...Venezuelan politician, a member of the social-democratic Popular Will party, and serves as a federal deputy to the National Assembly representing the state of Vargas. In 2019 he was appointed by the Popular Will party to become the president of the National Assembly, after which he declared he was acting president of the country, challenging Nicolás Maduro's presidency and starting the 2019 Venezuelan presidential crisis.... said on Twitter.
"It is not an option for Venezuelans to get used to this tragedy," Guaido added.
While the government advised people to stay home, there is a mass street rally set for today by the opposition to move forward the "next stage" of their struggle to gain power.
After a weeklong power cut, which began on March 7, in Venezuela, the country went through another blackout on March 25.
Although the government announced that the cuts were due to cyber and physical sabotage, the opposition claimed that the electricity system collapsed due to the government’s lack of adequate efforts.

When do they implement the man sized hamster wheels?
[AnNahar] Four Chinese nationals have been indicted for financial dealings with North Korea ...hereditary Communist monarchy distinguished by its truculence and periodic acts of violence. Distinguishing features include Songun (Army First) policy, which involves feeding the army before anyone but the Dear Leadership, and Juche, which is Kim Jong Il's personal interpretation of Marxism-Leninism, which he told everybody was brilliant. In 1950 the industrialized North invaded agrarian South Korea. Twenty-one countries of the United Nations eventually contributed to the UN force opposing the invasion, with the United States providing around 90% of the military personnel. Seventy years later the economic results are in and it doesn't look good for Juche... n companies sanctioned for involvement in the production of weapons of mass destruction, the U.S. Justice Department said Tuesday.
Ma Xiaohong, the head of Dandong Hongxiang Industrial Development Co. Ltd (DHID) and three top executives of the Chinese company were indicted by a federal grand jury in New Jersey, the department said in a statement.
The other three DHID executives indicted were identified as general manager Zhou Jianshu, deputy general manager Hong Jinhua and financial manager Luo Chuanxu.
"Through the use of more than 20 front companies, the defendants are alleged to have sought to obscure illicit financial dealings on behalf of sanctioned North Korean entities that were involved in the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction," assistant attorney general John Demers said.
"Ma, her company, and her employees tried to defraud the United States by evading sanctions restrictions and doing business with proliferators of weapons of mass destruction," said US Attorney Craig Carpenito.
A Justice Department front man said the four DHID executives are not in US custody and are believed to reside in China.
DHID, according to the indictment, was based in the Chinese city of Dandong in Liaoning Province along the border with North Korea and its primary business was import and export trade with North Korea.
DHID allegedly set up front companies to work with North Korea-based Korea Kwangson Banking Corp. (KKBC), which has ties to two other sanctioned North Korean entities -- Tanchon Commercial Bank (Tanchon) and Korea Hyoksin Trading Corporation (Hyoksin).
Tanchon and Hyoksin are subject to U.S. sanctions because of their links with the Korea Mining Development Trading Co. (KOMID), which the United States considers North Korea's premier arms dealer and main exporter of goods and equipment related to ballistic missiles and conventional weapons.
Ma, Zhou, Hong and Luo face a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison and a $1 million fine for violating the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA).
They face a maximum of five years in prison for conspiracy to violate IEEPA and a maximum of 20 years in prison for conspiracy to launder monetary instruments.
U.S. President Donald Trump ...the Nailer of NAFTA... and North Korean leader Kim Pudge Jong-un ...the overweight, pouty-looking hereditary potentate of North Korea. Pudge appears to believe in his own divinity, but has yet to produce any loaves and fishes, so his subjects remain malnourished... agreed to a resumption of their dialogue at an impromptu meeting in the Demilitarized Zone that divides the two Koreas on June 30.
[AyPee] South Korean air force jets fired 360 rounds of warning shots Tuesday after a Russian military plane twice violated South Korea’s airspace off the country’s east coast, Seoul officials said in an announcement that was quickly disputed by Russia.
South Korea said three Russian military planes ‐ two Tu-95 bombers and one A-50 airborne early warning and control aircraft ‐ entered the South’s air defense identification zone off its east coast before the A-50 intruded in South Korean airspace. Russia said later that two of its Tu-95MS bombers were on a routine flight over neutral waters and didn’t enter South Korean territory.
According to South Korean government accounts, an unspecified number of South Korean fighter jets, including F-16s, scrambled to the area and fired 10 flares and 80 rounds from machine guns as warning shots.
Seoul defense officials said the Russian reconnaissance aircraft left the area three minutes later but later returned and violated South Korean airspace again for four minutes. The officials said the South Korean fighter jets then fired 10 flares and 280 rounds from machine guns as warning shots.
South Korea said it was the first time a foreign military plane had violated South Korean airspace since the end of the 1950-53 Korean War.
South Korea’s Foreign Ministry and the Joint Chiefs of Staff summoned Russia’s acting ambassador and its defense attache to protest.
Russia’s Defense Ministry said in a statement that its planes did not enter South Korean airspace. It also said South Korean fighter jets didn’t fire any warning shots, though it said they flew near the Russian planes in what it called "unprofessional maneuvers" and posed a threat.
"If the Russian pilots felt there was a security threat, they would have responded," the statement said.
The airspace that South Korea says the Russian warplane violated is above a group of South Korean-held islets roughly halfway between South Korea and Japan that have been a source of territorial disputes between them. Russia isn’t part of those disputes.
Japan, which claims ownership over the islets, protested to South Korea for firing warning shots over Japanese airspace. South Korea later countered that it cannot accept the Japanese statement, repeating that the islets are South Korean territory.
South Korea said the three Russian planes entered the South Korean air defense identification zone with two Chinese bombers. South Korea said the Chinese planes didn’t intrude upon South Korean airspace.
The Russian statement accused South Korean aircraft of trying to hamper the flights of Russian jets before "a vague missile defense identification area" that it said South Korea unilaterally defined. Russia said it had raised its concerns about the zone before.
Before their reported joint flights with the Russian planes, the Chinese warplanes entered South Korea’s air defense identification zone off its southwest coast earlier Tuesday, South Korea’s Defense Ministry said. Seoul says Chinese planes have occasionally entered South Korea’s air defense identification zone in recent years.
[Business Insider] Environmental activists blocked congressional staff and lawmakers after super gluing themselves to doors and each other in a building on Capitol Hill on Tuesday afternoon.
The Washington, DC, chapter of Extinction Rebellion glued their hands to one another and to door knobs, forming chains around entryways and exits at the basement in a building for House lawmakers.
The protesters hung signs around themselves imitating emergency notices and calling for the passage of the Green New Deal.
"DECLARE CLIMATE EMERGENCY," one sign said.
"We're sorry. Due to the CLIMATE EMERGENCY Congress is shut down until sufficient action is taken to address the crisis," another sign said.
Republican Rep. Jim Banks of Indiana posted a video of his staff navigating through the hallways of the Capitol: "Supergluing yourself to a door is a very dumb way to protest," the video's caption said.

Break out glass and haul them away. Severe fines and appropriate charges for door/window replacement and labor. No one is released from jail until fines are paid and time is served.
#4
Compost them, not just the bits stuck to the glass. Their heads are already full of compost, so it should go pretty quick.

Leave them there. No food or water. In a day or two they will tear themselves away. Then you arrest them and clean their open wounds with alcohol/salt water.
#15
I'm against leaving them there. Then everybody else would have had to deal with them. They should have been released to a natural habitat, like central Antarctica. I'm sure it isn't cold, as global warming is such a horrendous problem.

Good. Now let him put his money where his mouth is. Ooop ! He has no money !
Aid is sunk in pakistain, not spent. It is all misappropriated by the military bureaucracy that propped up Imran Khan, and he serves at their leisure. They won't be denied.
