Making a stand while I sit on my arse. Technology and sustainability PR. Pro EU, democracy, tolerance, and nuanced debate. Beer, wine, sailing, song, rugby.
MusK is like the Zorg character in The Fifth Element. With all his power and with all his scheming he's suddenly choking on a cherry stone. In this instance the cherry stone has a name, Mamdani, the new Mayor of New York.

Between being called The Butcher's Apron and right now, the Union Jack had a period where it stood for fairness, justice, tolerance and welcome and I bloody well resent it being appropriated by those who have in their hearts none of the above.

Israel's a country where for many the red mist's descended. The blood lust's up and kept up by those whose political lives depend on the genocide continuing. But when the last medic's been bombed, the last journalist shot & the last family buried alive, who's next?

For those bitching about lowering voting age - young people will be the most impacted by the climate change. They see many of the supposed adults in the room - mainly those doing the bitching - doing Jack Shit and decrying Net Zero targets. It's only right they should have a say.

Just figured out why Trump's head is orange.
He is, in medical parlance, termed PP - Pumpkin Positive
Shine a torch in his ear and the whole head lights up.

Would all those, on the Right and Left, who were so enraged by Bob Vylan at Galastobury care to weigh in with the same level of vociferousness on this?

The @BBCNews' motto is "Nation shall speak peace unto nation". The motto was adopted by the BBC in 1927, when it was formed. It now now has a caveat: "unless it's about the Israeli genocide in Gaza, in which case we keep silent."

Prophetically fitting that the Deranged Orange Demagogue should have a cameo in the 2001's Zoolander - a film that centres on all that's vain, self-absorbed, jealous and without substance.

Trump is the physical manifestation of all human vices stuffed into a three-week old party balloon onto which the face of a lamprey has been painted.
