Another reason to hate Reform, they are making me consider breaking the habit of a lifetime and joining a political party.
Nigel Farage is probably delighted today that Reform have the most members of a political party.
It doesn't have to be this way.
180,000 and rising. Hope ready to overtake hate.
Stand and be counted.

I’ll never be barred from the USA, because Americans absolutely love and understand sarcasm and there’s no way they will misinterpret any of my posts.
Getting barred from the USA because the ICE agent doesn't know who Ace Rimmer is or why I keep misattributing his catchphrase to recently dead celebrities and is angry that I didn't write out the context in full in case an American stumbled upon it

Man made fire 350,000 years earlier than previously thought, discovery in Suffolk suggests
Groundbreaking find makes compelling case that humans were lighting fires much earlier than originally believed

Scottish UFOs was a project I did last year in collaboration with myself and my photos. There’s 12 altogether. Spoiler. They’re not real. Cathedrals and office blocks and in one case an industrial chimney at a sweet factory manipulated over (mostly) the west highlands. marswasrubbish.etsy.com
