That is very interesting. My quote is attributed to the right Wilhoit but I didn’t know about the confusion. Bizarre.

Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect...

On a (very) serious note: check out what’s happening with Tehran. A city of 10m people is about to run out of water. When that happens it will become the first major casualty of the climate crisis. And will probably take down the Iranian regime with it.

I'm sure the plumbing could be better, but in the long-term a water crisis is inevitable.

Drought is what will tip the climate emergency into a crisis. The signs are already visible.

In Tehran, pop. 10m, they are close to Day Zero for water and the President is talking about the need to evacuate the city. 10m people with nowhere to go!

Definitely true. And maybe even worse.

The tipping point calculations are all just estimates. They could easily turn out to be overly optimistic. 🔥🌎🔥

What the lobbyists and their paymasters needed was predatory delay.

Brilliantly well done. Will there be a list of MPs who attended so we can chase those who did not?

I did the calculation recently and the overall rates for wages and dividends including NI are almost identical.

It’s finely adjusted to prevent self-employed people using dividends to avoid tax.

Capturing politicians is so much cheaper.

The Iranian president has announced that Tehran (pop 10 million) may have to be evacuated.

Get your head around that if you can. 🤯🌎🔥
