So Parliament went to the expense of a special sitting (which we pay for) for no other reason than a condolence motion which could have been performed at the beginning of a normal session. How stupid is that?

What an incredibly well-educated ICE block. Or do you think this is a bit of the brainwashing that is part of their so-called "training"?

It has been weird that he still wrote for them. I stopped looking about 20 years ago. Sad for him and for his followers. But he probably feels ok about it.

2/2 There is also a perception that the British Museum claims to be holding the collections so that people can educate themselves about everything from around the world. It is hard to find a concise statement of that function. But the point is that London is not the only place people could travel.

There is a common perception that much of the stuff in the British Museum was "stolen"--Parthenon Marbles, Benin art, Rosetta Stone, Egyptian stuff. In many cases there was a financial transaction but often not seriously and involved a payment to the thief. 1/2

Why does it say it is really really bad. Surely these numbers are something that the US can take a little comfort from. Now they need to vote in the mid-terms and send a really unequivocal message.

I would think that there might be some sort of archaeological project that. Record all these abandoned stone-built houses. Identify their chronology, consider the settlement patterns of whatever it is (18th century?). Before they all collapse.
