Then DO something about it. A general strike, civil disobedience...there has to be something that can be done.

300mn people in thrall do the dumbest, most abysmal person to have stolen the post of US president.

Did they later shorten their name to Andwella? A mate of mine had an album by a band of that name.

He will always assert this view. Because we can't know the unknown. They never said how Brexit should be done, just that it would be relentlessly good for the nation.

An absolute fucking bunch of treacherous cunts. Should ALL be in prison.

America is fucked.

EXAMPLE #4509

Where are the members of the NRA? Those defenders of everything American?

A fantastic piece of writing. No need for sleights or insults. Just plain speaking.

The Aussies could learn from their neighbours (there's a song there I'm sure) NZ, who have done great work in trying to save their threatened wildlife, especially on islands.

And appropriately playing "Man In A Shed".

Gotta love The Gudgeon.

It's payable to the Weld Estate isn't it? It has always cost a fortune to park a car down there.

Can I recommend @jcheall.bsky.social , I buy his "work" quite often. Just a great painter.

The photo on the right was taken by me (possible on the same day but 60 miles north of John's viewpoint?).

Are we meant to debate the Mail's* statement?

You're doing a great job Zack, the traditional parties have shot their bolt, and are about to get what they deserve.

*spits in disgust at having to mention it.

Politics seems to have become the place where you can say such things and remain in a job.

If it was in industry she'd be toast.

@markradcliffe.bsky.social great #TTTT I was hoping for The Great Skua by Sea Power/ BSP.

Reminded what a great album that debut by Guillemots was.

Do you happen to know what Fyffe is doing now?

Looks like an AI-generated skull, with feet sticking out of each side.

Great game BTW.

I would have thought, as he is such a devout Christian, that he would have said "The Bybull".

Why are the country's fortunes again in hoc to the policies, thoughts, and whims of an advisor?

We had enough of that with bloody Dominic The Durham Driving Eye Tester.

Oh yeah, they're going to accept the enormous drop in their salary that would involve aren't they?

Unless, of course, there's money to be grifted from the public purse.

Is there no limit to the pathetic publicity seeking of this ridiculous little man?
He'd rather sit in the Commons public gallery - so that can still be photographed - than actually turn up for work, and do his bloody job...
Farage is waste of space, and a wasted vote 🤮

Have the vinyl and CD...although the latter has an annoying jump.

It's a very powerful exhibition. Even having had the book for quite some time I was taken aback by my emotional reaction to seeing the images "in the flesh" so to speak.

On my last two visits to London I've been stunned by the huge increase in tented villages along Euston Rd & Tottenham Court Rd.
