It was hard to convince Americans torture is wrong as a moral principle during Bush's term, and that was with the debate about whether torture makes us safer. I'm afraid for a portion of Trump's base, that calculation matters less. Idea of torturing undocumented immigrants may even bring pleasure.

The same people who are raging against Erasmus are the same ones who want cuts and restrictions to Higher Education.
These people fear well-rounded, adventurous, educated, confident young people, relaxed about the rest of Europe.

Remembering the crew of the Solomon Browne and the Penlee Lifeboat disaster, OTD 1981. Headed out into the unforgiving storm to rescue those in peril. Cornwall and the nation mourned these brave souls then, and we do today. May their light shine on. 🙏

TRUMP REPRESENTS ALL THAT’S WRONG WITH AMERICA, A MANIFESTATION OF DECADES OF CORRUPTION AND FRAUDULENCE.
America has to find a solution. The rest of us should not be bullied or intimidated. We must stand up to the moron Trump, whatever the cost.

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful.
They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone.
Don't fall for it.

It is very difficult to think of anything Trump has done this year that does not denigrate the USA’s staunchest allies and delight their once shared enemies, most obviously Vladimir Putin. And apart perhaps from Mark Carney, Western politicians are not rising to the unprecedented challenge he poses.

70 years of The Ladykillers: how the locations look today
As the classic Ealing comedy turns 70, we went walking around King’s Cross to see whether Alec Guinness and his motley band of robbers would recognise it today.

FFS!!! The project's been hacked by crazy idealism. Why does nationalisation have to come with shoving a tacky flag in our faces? Might as well paint human blood over the trains for that disgusting red. BAD start to the day and a coming headache every time I see one of those trains. NOT happy!
