An opinionated Edinburger mainly interested in the outdoors, science and politics.
Currently raging against the dying of the light.
Neither do many other parties.
Look, maybe come back in a few years when you've grown up a bit.
Bye.

What part of "we had a referendum and decided to remain part of the UK" do you struggle to comprehend?
January 24, 2026 at 11:28 AM
Very few.

I'll just leave this here.

Petulance mixed with the worry that Norway's sovereign wealth fund has about $1 trillion invested in the US. Norwegian divestment would certainly make their eyes water.

4% is still high isn't it?

Hmmmm.
You don't think this series of questions is leading?

Well, Europe has a €200Bn trade surplus with the US and its biggest import from the US, petrochemicals, could be difficult to replace given we can't buy from Russia either.

I don't think he understands how big a kick in the balls is coming his way.
January 17, 2026 at 6:24 PM
No, none at all.

Let's be careful out there.

I think the Channel Islands may be getting it even worse.

I saw this on an FB page about the murder in Minneapolis yesterday.
I'm not familiar with US law but it seems authoritative.

On the one hand there's a guy who won the Portuguese league and has to stand in front of the cameras every week and explain his team's performance. On the other hand there's this bloke who "sees himself as a coach".
If they fell out I know who I'd sack.

He blocked me at some point so I've now returned the compliment.
No great loss I fear.

Sadly world ool consumption is at an all time high, though it may have peaked.
It must be more complicated than that and associated with over capacity given 70% of it gets burned in ICEs.

Just a reminder that if you get one of these make sure you post the envelope back. The post office will charge Deform for each envelope it handles.

Yep.
Partly what ended Sturgeon's career. Listening to no one outside the lobby/government bubble.
