Absolutely right. No point rubbing it in - doesn’t get the job done. But why is it always us that has to be the grown ups.

I get the joke. It’s a good one. But the black shirts were Italian fascists (so much more stylish). The Sturmabteilung - Hitlers paramilitary force vital to his rise - wore brown.

Stags just shouldn’t vape. Not good for them.

Signed & shared. We also need the report into Russian interference in the Brexit vote unredacted and reissued. We are being played like harps.

Lord knows why we let the US anywhere near wars. They make a fortune flogging the armaments then dole out the β€œpeace” contracts to clean up the destruction caused by the arms. Viz: WW1&2; Palestine; Ukraine.

Wait till you see what they can do with the war that’s coming up. It’ll make Covid contracts look like pocket money.

Loads of people are non-resident Spanish home owners. Would we expect a non resident Spanish owner of a home in UK to have special rights? We only had special rights as EU members. Now - nowt.

Here we go.
Oh look there’s a BBC squirrel over there.
Sky is about to spend nearly Β£2billion buying ITV.
Trump is suing the BBC.

We don’t need the BBC any more.

I have always thought they saw National Trust as having National Rifle Association potential - not re guns, but as a respected powerful cultural marker.

Women in support of the trans+ community - Not in our name

We want the media and politicians to recognise that there is a large number of women who are supportive of the trans+ community. We call on them to report truthfully about the sources of violence against women and to address the systems that perpetuate harm. notinourname.org.uk/petition/not...

Well I’m sure there was very little intelligence to be found, but surely there was plenty of information to grab.

Sorry Port Talbot but I think this comes down to geography & security. Iron, coal & lime nearby. But Scunthorpe was impossible to bomb in WW2 because of scarp slopes. I know bombs are smarter now, but strategically Scunthorpe is easier to protect.

Scunthorpe geographically interesting. WW2 Germany failed to bomb it bcs of location. Scarp slopes hard to find. Also close to iron/lime/coal. But does need to be modernised to electric.

Petition: Hold a referendum on re-joining the European Union I want the government to hold a referendum on whether the UK should Rejoin the European Union.

Things have changed A LOT since Labour published it's manifesto.
America is no longer a trusted ally.
It's clearly in our best interests to #RejoinEU
If they don't change tac then we'll vote tactically to get them OUT and @libdems.org.uk and TheGreenParty IN!

Ok. But at least let’s prep for telling greedy business that they can pay proper taxes or eff off. And be ready to take back our assets & freeze their accounts.

I so want us to work with the EU to set up our own satellites and boot the US out of five eyes or whatever they call it. We really need to get to independent in double fast time.

Great opportunity to work with EU again. We also need our own satellite system independent of USA - preferably shared with EU.
