The real Gem and Molly, adopted separately, were good pals together and good fun. Both gone some time ago. Their photos are on the wall (the Rogues Gallery) so I can smile at them every day.

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

So federal workers are working without pay, and furloughed workers will only get the back pay required by law IF Trump deems them worthy?

Did I get that right?

Surely a Prime Minister and former lawyer should have all the facts at his fingertips… where’s the evidence Mr Starmer??

I don't like these memes, and although I'm British, I'm definitely not a loyalist, but must say that Queen Elizabeth, when a princess, joined a military corps & driving army vehicles. The King & Queen could have gone to Canada to sit out the war, but they stayed in London as it was being bombed.

One of the (many) legal gaps that needs to be filled after this nightmare is over is to prohibit federal law enforcement agencies from using federal funds to create propaganda videos with anyone in custody. This is all about spectacle and content creation, remove the incentive and the means

Opinion | You can tag as much faux spirituality on this as you like, but these are traditional (read patriarchal) gender roles, repackaged for the modern dating scene – and it needs to be consigned to the dustbin
