The Gareth Sheridan thing is a potent reminder that no matter how normal an Irish man between 18 and 60 presents himself as, there’s a disturbingly high chance that he consumes Rogan, Carlson, Peterson, Shapiro etc and passes it off as “they just speak sense”

It's December, and I'm a single thirty-something-year-old motherless woman lacking direction in life, which means I'm dangerously close to having to save a beloved village inn by rediscovering the true meaning of Christmas with the help of a handsome but non-threatening local woodworker

Finland ended homelessness with a housing first strategy that gave people apartments before they secured employment
Now they’re proposing a 4 day work week and 6 hour work days
True work life balance
Meanwhile in the US, people work two jobs and can’t afford food or healthcare.

A constant blazing terror that somewhere, somebody might be getting a free cheese sandwich. Or indeed brief use of a wheelchair.

If you oppose bloodsports then voting for any of the three main parties won't achieve that.
For my Irish compadres:
On December 17th your public representatives will likely choose not to ban fox hunting.
Almost 8 out of every 10 people across Ireland have chosen to ban fox hunting.

I don't think there is much grassroots support for foxhunting of greyhound racing, this shouldn't be treated as a very divisive issue.
If farmers don't want hillwalkers on their land, they definitely don't want wildlife-murdering berks on horseback trashing the place!

So why are they still empty?
Record homelessness, children being traumatised

Introducing compulsory rental & sales & custodian squatting would be transformative

We're watching the wholesale burning of every scrap of dignity afforded to trans people in the UK, their rights, their medical services, their employment, their place within society, their bodily functions.
It is a disgrace, and a disgusting stain on the government and media of this country.
