Not debating a return to the SM and CU is a dereliction of duty by our government. Maintaining the downwards spiral the UK is currently on is not in our best interest.

Time Magazine wrote a relatively good story about me, but the picture may be the Worst of All Time. They "disappeared" my hair, and then had something floating on top of my head that looked like a floating crown, but an extremely small one. Really weird! I never liked taking pictures from underneath angles, but this is a super bad picture, and deserves to be called out. What are they doing, and why?

I think we can call them fascists and Trump is their leader.

"Together, the messages reveal a culture where racist, antisemitic and violent rhetoric circulate freely — and where the Trump-era loosening of political norms has made such talk feel less taboo among those positioning themselves as the party’s next leaders."

Can't call them fascists?

Inflation remains high at 3.8%.
Food and non-alcoholic drink inflation is at 5.1%
Fresh food quality at an all time low (Just my opinion).
