The point where I wished I was closer to home 😂

Ominous black clouds dominating the sky during my country walk.

Possibly a government ruse to reclassify “photocopying the newspapers and translating them into a foreign language” as “major #espionage on behalf of a hostile foreign state” so they can prosecute the #China2.

Grasping the nettle?

Has he invited the FBI over on a fact finding trip, or simply asked Andrew not to call himself’Duke of York’ (the one only the BBC ever uses) in favour of ‘Prince’ Andrew (which everyone else uses, and gets him his intro to corrupt business deals)?

With thirty people on the oversight panel, disagreements were guaranteed.

It’s like the 17,410,742 different Brexits we voted for.

Every single Tory period in government has ended in defeat.

By their logic, they should abandon the policy of standing for election.

You missed a juicy cornucopia:

The Papacy making peace with Hanoverians, maybe ending more wars than Trump ever will;

A building with offices, a pub, and (soon) overnight rooms, so you can work to death without ever encountering the real world; and

Latest updates on Ringo Starr’s drumming career.

I imagine there are a few people willing to drop him a few quid to keep quiet, including the occasional head of state of a western ‘democracy’.

Maybe the “We’re in this together” email went to more than one recipient?

I know of a London firefighter who travels from Lincolnshire.

The shift patterns make it easy; the cost of living in the capital makes it desirable.

Who would go into a major inquiry with the thought: “If it goes wrong, hopefully we can get it right next time”?

No inquiry will ever produce the results they want.

No inquiry will ever give them the outcome they want. It is heartbreaking to see them convince themselves it will.

Weird how Charles is hoping to change the narrative by visiting the Vatican

… to meet the head of a paedophile protectorate, who comes from a nation that elects paedophiles 🤷‍♂️

Even the guest couldn’t name a single song.

All he knew was “It’s on The Black Album; the one with the cardboard sleeve, and a hole in the middle”

Maybe it’s his accent, but I think he even said “da da da” when it should have been “ta ta ta”.

When Emmanuel Macron speaks, or Xi Jinping, you engage a voiceover to provide an English translation.

Why not the same for Stewart Copeland, since Nick Robinson was clearly out of his depth trying to keep up?

Don’t you vet guests, to ensure they can speak coherently?

“We follow that report on a #paedophile front organisation tolerating Hanoverians to tell you about a new building that has even less relevance to our non-#Christian nation of people with no interest in living, working and drinking completely isolated from reality.

“Now, drumming …”

#BuckinghamPalace hopes #NotMyKing Charles praying in Italy will distract from his support for his brother, a wrong ‘un.

He will kneel next to the head of an organisation that has protected paedophiles for generations, from a country that elected a #SexOffender.

All in it together.

Confirmation #Andrew receives no public money, although his finances are “resilient” (Daniela Relph).

Seems it is possible to lead an affluent life purely on “commission” for business deals - ‘bribes’ and ‘corruption’ - and hush money from POTUSes, #paedophiles and #SexOffenders.

Calls to abandon government policy on unlawful #migration after a man deported to France has subsequently returned.

#KeirStarmer is later expected to announce the replacement for #prisons, which have been failing on a far greater scale for centuries.

I’m 🤞for #’rehabilitation’.

Any confirmation on the number that can dance on the point of a needle?

I usually find that more useful to give an idea of scale than “about the size of a common house mouse”, since mouses (mousi?) are not actually common in my house.

#Andrew to be questioned about the lease on his home.

Not defending him, but doesn’t the landlord, rather than the tenant, set the rules?

… and #NotMyKing #Charles has long history of friendship with, defence of, and support for, #paedophiles and #SexOffenders.

If only!

My current fridge magnets are from my (soon to be) solar panel provider and the Rammstein / Iron Maiden Sonisphere festival 🤘

Sadly, what he sees as “things” are all too often people like me and my fellow citizens.

We did not choose him; he is not “our” king; and many of us would prefer to vote for a head of state.

Despite current evidence, and lack of guns, we would also be more likely to use our checks and balances.
