Fairness crusader and curmudgeon with a big heart. Golf, running, hills, nature, politics, science, centrist, humanist. Not so keen on conspiracy nutters, anti-vaxxers and despise post 2010 Tories. Hate Brexit and Reform. USA, what have you done?!

I've just done a Gemini prompt on my phone and it was pretty accurate and unbiased.

He stokes, then reflects them. There needs to be a collective acknowledgement that the UK has gone backwards and is in very serious trouble.

But they enable him, they get into bed with him, they campaign for him and then wonder why it all goes wrong. They choose to do a deal with Trump, for what? Money, Fame, Power? He's been known for decades, a chip off his father's terrible block.

He's gone again? I missed than. When?

Richard Morris @drunkenbakers.bsky.social · 11d

I'll bet they will be flown upside down too.

Richard Morris @drunkenbakers.bsky.social · 11d

Yeah, but he's back now, right. Reform are right that this country has gone to the dogs, but not for the reasons they think.

Let's try and find out. I live in Notts and have replaced tyres on more than one occasion from poor surfaces.

Richard Morris @drunkenbakers.bsky.social · 11d

And how many potholes could this have filled. Notts CC were effectively bankrupt last year.

Great use of loot, this one. £500 per flag, utterly pointless.

Criticism as Reform-led council set to spend £75,000 on new flags

The council says union jack flags will be flown in 82 locations in a bid to foster

150 flags, £75,000. £500 a pop. Fuck sake.

I live in Nottinghamshire and was unaware of this incredible waste of money. Further pissed off because the clandestine flag erectors were being paid by some dodgy far right supporting groups.

I wholeheartedly disagree - it would simple grow the echo chamber. We need a 'call Farage (he's not my friend)' on J O'Brien. Ferarri is a toe tickler, we need Farage, the Tories and the likes to be interviewed by people vested in asking proper questions and thoroughly exposing them.

To add a little colour to the controversy around Katie Lam's comments, courtesy of Wiki, Katie's grandparents were either suffering at the hands of the Nazis or were killed by them. The survivors fled to the UK to avoid persecution and murder.

I didnt think there could be something so terrible as to be a pound shop Truss.

Nice to be surprised once in a while.

Richard Morris @drunkenbakers.bsky.social · 14d

Mine would show lots of swearing about how bad my golf is. I can recreate any of them here if anyone cares.

Richard Morris @drunkenbakers.bsky.social · 15d

Ah, well done, despite the ticker. You might have to move to Dunbartonshire for the rest.

Richard Morris @drunkenbakers.bsky.social · 15d

I think my pal is more concerned about the politics and soap opera surrounding the owner and the worry that nstability will create havoc. Lets hope he does a good job.

And well done on completing the Wainwrights. I wish I lived a little closer to make a better dent in them.

As someone living 20 miles away from the ground and whose best mate is a long standing Forest fan I will report his reaction verbatim seeing what has happened to his club in the last few months - For Fuck's Sake.

It seems Tory and Ref currently hate each other but we saw with Johnson and Farage and Brexit that they are prepared to do a deal with the devil to get the outcome they want and by nature they dont give a shit about anyone but the rich and powerful and are more ruthless. Living on hope isnt enough

Richard Morris @drunkenbakers.bsky.social · 15d

I despise the tories and ref. and wanted nothing more than for KS to win and do well, but the polls are suggesting he isnt tanking, they are stating he has already tanked. I know we are still a long way off the next GE but as it stands we will have a landslide Farage govt. Let's hope ref blow up

Richard Morris @drunkenbakers.bsky.social · 15d

Im no arty-type but sometimes a picture just makes you want to go and visit/live in the subject matter and if that is the measure of good art then this is good art.

Richard Morris @drunkenbakers.bsky.social · 15d

He is unpopular because the rags keep telling us he is. He is unpopular because he's tanking at the polls and also because he has been very disappointing.

But, does any right thinking person think Farage will be better for our country and for its people. Or Badenoch? Davey is the only alternative

I fear you are being a little generous with 'melt'.
