Neutral Density is a good description of present UK Labour Party. I feel fortunate to have emigrated to Scotland. My photo is in 1 of a couple of portfolios (linked in petition 2) submitted to Scottish Government to inform its decision on the proposed Coul Links golf course. bsky.app/profile/groa...

Starmer is a centre-right fence-sitter & not a credible left leader, either in power or opposition. Him & the likes of Streeting are making a mess of the UK, in the recent Tory tradition, although not as egregious as those aberrations, Johnson & Truss. I hope SNP doesn't follow his bad example.

You may know that ND also means neutral density, a dark photographic filter to allow slower exposure to blur action, like flowing water. I use graduated ND filters when I'm not feeling lazy, to darken the exposure of lighter areas of images, especially sky. 📷 Loch Fleet, Sutherland.

FT is troubling. I wondered briefly what the OA ND means & am not entirely certain about many such OAs (obscure acronyms) but presume it's neurodiverse. I'm ASD + ADHD = SPUD. I 'diagnosed' myself in my 40s, then professionally confirmed as ASD in early 50s. Some educators thought me BD, PTSD & OCD.

I don’t want Farage to apologise. Because he wouldn’t mean it. We know he doesn’t care about the harm he does.
I want him to carry on with his denials, accusations and tantrums. Let people see what Nigel really is; angry, thin-skinned and racist.
