Later this week, in the UK at least, a new film about the post WW2 Nuremberg trials is being released. It’s currently being heavily promoted. I’ve not seen it, but I’m guessing this guy will feature prominently in the portrayals. He’s buried in the grounds of the lovely Jevington church, in Sussex.

It was a particular privilege earlier this year to visit the (relatively new) Bomber Command memorial site, at Canwick, not far fron Lincoln. Sited in an area full of RAF bases in WW2. #neverforget

Remembering today these guys, commemorated by the Bomber Command Memorial in London’s Green Park. Always controversial, but they had to wait until 2012 for this permanent recognition.

This morning, the Met Office surface pressure chart on their app currently shows five distinct low pressure systems in our part of the planet. However, that’s small beer compared to the _twelve_ on this chart below, screenshot on 27 January this year.

A 1931 Douglas Strachan #stainedglass window from St Thomas, Winchelsea, in East Sussex. Some great detail - notice the Red Cross armband in the lower left. One of my personal very favourite windows anywhere. Spike Milligan is buried in the churchyard. #alwaysremember

For Remembrance Sunday. This is from Kettlewell village, in Yorkshire. It is a stunning, large #stainedglass window, all the more imposing because it’s the east window in this little church, and the congregation sit facing it, all year round.

2/2 Clayton and Bell, 1850s, with the same scene at Algakirk, Lincolnshire. It depicts Numbers 13:23. One from each of the Twelve Tribes of Israel has been sent out by Moses to spy out the Land of Canaan, and ordered to return with 'the fruit of the land'.

The myths are seductive, the reality is very different – without the ECHR your freedoms rest on whichever Home Secretary wakes up grumpy

A video claims the Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine contains “cancer-causing SV40”.
This isn’t correct. The vaccine doesn’t contain the SV40 monkey virus, which can induce cancer in animals. It uses a fragment of SV40’s DNA sequence, which doesn’t cause cancer.
