She wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter : “Whoever thought it was funny to parasail over the village, it was in extremely poor taste. Take your twisted hatred somewhere else. There was two parachutes with engines like Hamas used at that festival, gave me a fright. Thought it was some kind of scare tactic or protest.”

The headline doesn't actually describe the article text. She did not say that she thought it was Hamas. She thought that it was some kind of protest. Which may be wrong too, but is not the same thing as believing Hamas is attacking.

It's still really fucking stupid. That lady needs to go live in a cave and never interact with or have to see people again.

She probably doesn't exist, it was all made up by The Mirror to get a good click baity headline. If she does exist, she shouldn't exist in the news because she's dumb as fuck, but that's the state of the media nowadays.

Hey man! Facts don’t sell! They don’t move content and they don’t generate clicks.

You and your accuracy are out of place!

General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
