Don't forget "he used AI to research the laws regarding where he could hang flags", and xe is not racist because xe has been to the Philippines.
A quick look to see what the "social media posts" thing might be reveals that the nitwit is now complaining that it's somehow illegal for the pubs and the local council and whatnot to take the flags down because xe paid for them. That nonsense was probably "researched" with AI, too.
#ReachPLC news sources like that often have subtle, or even overt, biases when it comes to commercial interests. So my immediate learned response to an article about a land development project is to look for coverage by someone else. I couldn't find any other news source, though. Iliffe Media has nothing, and Nub News seems not to have a local outlet.
@wood5y #ReachPLC hacks can get money for old rope at Wales Online by submitting the same piece 10 days apart.

You should apply the same critical thinking skills as for #ReachPLC journalism. Steven Swinford (previously of the Telegraph and Sun) is not exactly an unbiased source.
Compare how that newspaper cherry-picks words to report a policy that matches the politics of its readers, versus other newspapers who also have embargoed copies of the speech text, yet are reporting it differently.
And welcome to #ReachPLC, where a single story is recycled across multiple, purportedly local, titles. (-:
Extra enjoyment can be had by seeing how very little the hacks actually wrote for themselves, by comparing their pieces (and in some articles even the illustrations) with Aldi's press release.

Aldi has confirmed it will close all its stores on Boxing Day to thank its colleagues once again for all their hard work. Britain’s fourth-largest supermarket will close on 25th and 26th December and reopen as usual on Friday 27th, so customers can pick up all the essentials for their New Year celebrations. Opening hours […]
I went straight to the Liverpool Echo for #Southport coverage, myself.
Despite being a #ReachPLC publication full of the usual #BadJournalism, it does have fairly good coverage of all this that is better than those of the nationals and the telly news.

Its court reporting of the appearances of the various hooligans in the #EnglandRiots in the area was interesting, too.
Really, that's a false equivalence.
The Nazi students who burned books targetted as many copies of specific books that they could get their hands on.
The English criminal gangs who set alight a library were doing plain old arson and theft. Not ideology of any sort; purely criminal opportunism.
Evidence of this is that (per the same #ReachPLC Liverpool Echo, anyway) two 20-somethings have already pleaded guilty to burglary of the #Spellow Library.
@neilturner inspired a poor substitute for a @lindasgoluppiart task.
Today:
Now that you have decided whether the bakery chain is Greggs, Greggs', or Greggs's, pull out Bing Maps, or Google Maps, or even both.
Also choose a county in the U.K..
For 1 minute, try to find out how many #Greggs branches there are, from the maps search results, in that county.
Afterwards, you may check your results against Greggs's own store finder, and what #ReachPLC claims in its advertorials.
