I’m sure this will generate endless hours of chatter on the radio, & a bazillion nigh identical comments by blue ticks over on the other place…
Poppies: "Are we a joke to you?"
Trump doing his 'I'm a serious person' face when journos ask him a question, never fails to crack me up, because we're all aware what his brain is doing when that question is asked.

When we cross into a stone circle, we not only journey into the Long Neolithic, we walk into ritual, into a continuing sense of sacred. We mustn't look at it as a completed story. It is ongoing. Our being there only adds a new chapter to it. – Dr. K. Brophy #StandingStoneSunday
Farage would collapse this country quicker than Truss.

The difference being, he would not be removed from power.

Another 55mins of Farage carried live by BBC and Sky, in which he rambled for twice as long as briefed, and yet managed to say little of substance.

Why can broadcasters not simply give us 3mins of the low-lights after the event, as they would do with most other politicians? ~AA
"The best thing to do about this, is remove all child labour laws, send them up chimneys from the age of 6 and pay them 5p per day, so they actually know the value of money when/if they reach adulthood."
Yep, 100%.

A demilitarised planet is a wonderful idea. Until the inconvenient reality of people who want to bomb, shoot, and torture other people, presents itself.
When you just come out and say "let's be Russia."
"Instead of having an unqualified politician running this government dept, let's try out my mate, who has been bankrupted several times, is currently being investigated for fraud, was recently photographed sieg-heiling and who believes women are property."

Nigel Farage, whose party recently put a teenager with zero work experience of any kind, in charge of running an entire county, is currently giving a speech railing against "unqualified" politicians being put in charge of Government departments
Utopian delusions.

I get it, though. Most of us want to live in a world free of war, violence and carnage. The briefest glance at the planet (say Sudan, currently) tells you that unfortunately, we require the capacity to defend ourselves against terrible human beings.

Some people waited in line up for 14 hours to receive a food box from a church giveaway.

500 people volunteered to help and they still ran out of food.

Remember for every one person a food bank feeds, SNAP feeds 9.

By turning off food assistance the regime is starving Americans.

Amid all the horror of the attack on Saturday we see the very, very best of human beings. The passengers who helped each other, the heroic train worker who put himself in harms way and undoubtedly saved lives.

If you want to understand the emotional end intellectual malaise of British politics, this piece by @mjrobbins.com is a pretty good place to start. It effectively describes a country that has gone mad. open.substack.com/pub/martinro...
