You wonder if she hasn’t considered herself lucky to not have been struck down by dementia and had to sell the home to pay for a care home. Having said that £4m would last longer than she likely will.

👍🏻 You both look great by the way. All that running is doing you some good from what I can see. Have a brilliant weekend.
November 29, 2025 at 9:59 PM
Big Love to you both. What a Power Couple!! PhDsquared to the power of the East. ❤️

Anyone who still thinks Farage isn’t a danger to our democracy after listening to this is a complete fool and is seriously delusional. The truth has burst the Farage balloon. He is a horrible person who has no positive characteristics. The truth should remain the weapon against his lie and bullshit

And the top banding is £320 in 1991 valuation. That means a Saudi owner of an unoccupied mansion in Hampstead Heath circa £5m pays the same as someone in a relatively modest family home. And you can bet the Saudi is claiming unoccupied housing discount on his council tax. Time for a change.

No doubt they’ll invent a Millenium Bug equivalent to sustain credibility, and investment of course. General AI isn’t happening beyond widespread use of LLM. I’ll have my long promised jet pack before then.

Perhaps if these “concerned parents/community pillars” took a pause and thought for a minute they might just conclude that their actions look decidedly racist in an ugly way.

The Israelis watched the Russians in Syria doing exactly the same to Aleppo for Assad with the same impunity that they are currently enjoying. I truly hope I live to see Netanyahu and everyone in his cabinet behinds bars in The Hague. I just hope the mythical “West” don’t fail to do it.

Fagash Farage is loved by the 24/7 media machine because they can fill their inane scheduling with shit chat and politics that largely resonates with them anyway. Far from a left leaning media we have the opposite in the UK, owned by those whose interests are served well by them.

He’s been wall to wall on news agendas since the Labour Government took power and he entered Westminster. Where is he today of all days? He should be front and centre, as leader of the party who claim patriotism for every action and policy, answering questions on what he knew, when he knew it.

After sun still occupies some space in my emotional attic years after I watched it. Such a wonderful film about how we try to understand the world looking backwards while living looking forwards but with some things to work out

Entirely of a piece with a state that believes that no international laws apply to it and that it can do as it wills against any enemy, real, perceived or simply because they can. Israel of course is only able to do this because of US money, weaponry and intelligence. Fuck them both. Free Palestine

Must be one of the famous Hartlepool parakeets. A rare flash of colour in an autumnal park. What a joy.

Yeah, yeah, your debating society chat works well in 140 character format. Cooing fine thanks and probably better for not engaging with you since you are safely beyond ever being a union supporting, UK Labourite who is happy for Scotland to know its place. Keep singing the Internationale…. Bye, bye

Insufferable smart arse and someone with no ability to take any ribbing. To be honest I’ve had enough of your sometimes logic/sometimes feelings/sometimes defending Labour UK/sometimes not, and your generally holier than thou discourse. Cheerio Duncan. Enjoy Holyrood 26 when Scottish Labour implodes
November 13, 2025 at 4:02 PM
Could say the same about your Scottish Leaders criticisms of ScotGov. You’ve some nerve defending him on the two child cap, WASPI etc. or any of the actions taken by them to mitigate the impact of UKGov policies. And you’re right, I’m not remotely sorry because you’re an insufferable smart arse.
November 13, 2025 at 3:52 PM
Sorry Duncan but that’s you giving off massive “but we did good things and everyone hates us” energy

This is already happening in the US with the funding that used to go to universities being taken from them by the Trump administration and given to tech companies due to their investment in AI failing to come to anything because it is an Emperor’s New Clothes Project.

Fully concur for many reasons not least of which is the changing demographic in the loyalist community and lowering birth rate. There may not be many left in the coming decades and notwithstanding some nefarious activities it is to be hoped that Ireland would be reunited after over a hundred years.
November 12, 2025 at 11:12 PM
True. I’m sure you would also have a limited interest in integrating the six counties and their deep rooted sectarian behaviours having left them behind since the new border was agreed in 1925.

It’s hardly surprising given he only entered the parliamentary world in 2015. Ten years later he’s PM! His experience of politics is as limited as his courage. Perhaps wielding the law gives you something to hide behind? I cite his ruling on the Ian Tomlinson case whilst head of CPS.

The Good Friday Agreement is certainly a good thing, perhaps the only good thing in the history of British involvement in Ireland. Ignoring the colonial past and plantation of crown loyalists the partition of Ireland can only be regarded as an appalling trial of a tactic used subsequently in India.
