Use Google To Find British Prime Ministers

[royfromaus]

What do you notice?

[naomi24]

To be honest, Ken, I find this quite sinister. My stomach turned when I read the post at 08:54.

Donald - USA
Alexander Boris - UK

Why do I think of the song American Idiots ?

"We’re exploring why the first terms for Churchill, Wilson, MacDonald & Baldwin are not shown. It might be that our systems are only displaying the last term of prime ministers who had non-consecutive terms. We’ll seek to address this to avoid any unintentional concern."

If it were deliberate, why are the other PMs affected? It sounds more like a glitch to me.

[THECORBYLOON]

If it were deliberate, why remove the image, why not replace it with an offensive or mocking image?

[ToraToraTora]

TCL, they took it down then fabricated the Bovine faeces when people noticed and complained.
Wiki still have it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_prime_ministers_of_the_United_Kingdom

[naomi24]

An inconvenient time to suffer such a 'glich'.

[THECORBYLOON]

Not every mistake is deliberate.

[THECORBYLOON]

TTT, where's the proof it was deliberate and that Google was behind it?

[ToraToraTora]

well I have no proof but a bit convenient wouldn't you say?

[THECORBYLOON]

What about "unfortunate"?

" We’re exploring why the first terms for Churchill, Wilson, MacDonald & Baldwin are not shown. It might be that our systems are only displaying the last term of prime ministers who had non-consecutive terms. We’ll seek to address this to avoid any unintentional concern."

It's only the picture of Churchill that's missing, the other three are still being shown.

Hyphens in the wrong place and pictures missing

What on earth is going on this morning ?

[THECORBYLOON]

VULCAN, it appears there are other omissions, not only the missing image.

[naomi24]

But Churchill's is the only image missing.

[vulcan42]

TCL, what other omissions? The only one in your quote refers to first terms are not shown for the four Prime Ministers which they are investigating. It doesn't explain why the photograph of Churchill is the only one missing. I believe in coincidence but not to this extent.

[Ellipsis]

So the claim is that Google deliberately removed the image, hoping nobody would notice, and then when people did notice Google made up some lame excuse rather than stand by their reasons for removing it. Is that it?

[ToraToraTora]

Ellipsis, yes, that's how it looks.

[ToraToraTora]

I'm amazed I've not been told to change my avatar TBH.
