Brandy Butter is not complete without the prior tasting, I love sherry trifle and I used to make one for the New Year but unfortunately I'm now lactose intolerant so I have to be careful with my diary intake, but I can still dream.😍

Certainly we have a heavy influence.

It's a great time of year, with the kitchen full of all the wonderful baking smells of Christmas. I love gingerbread, my favourite is from the Grasmere Gingerbread Shop, I'm lucky enough to holiday in the Lake District sometimes and I pick it up then.

I have a special love of anything lace, and her work is so beautiful.

That's not it and like most MAGA she's out of touch with reality!

This is a perfect example of why our legislation regarding political funding has to be strengthened.

This is reflective of the funding for Reform over 90% of funds raised comes from companies connected to fossil fuels and obviously anti green policies. Climate change is real and environmental policies are essential for future success but Reform only considers their immediate profits.

😘Thank you Bell, my recipe post usually sticks to desserts but I'm busy baking and sausage rolls are the last of my baking (Christmas Eve will be my final thing Brandy Butter, then it's on to Christmas Day) so I included this today. My favourite is with apple and cider. You are always welcome😊

Definitely don't want their finances looked at one word 'corruption'.

😂Although not part of a council (I appreciate your effort) I'm doing my best from the sidelines to also thwart them and I agree more recently they seem to be doing a super job of shooting themself in the foot.

Harborne based in Thailand was pals with Johnson and helped fund the Brexit campaign, he is part of the wealthy circle surrounding Farage looking out for their own interests. This is further proof that Labour needs to legislate to stop foreign influence in our politics.

As Trump's America is holding part of it, I have issues with this World Cup anyway.

I was hoping that with Macron in Beijing there would be some success with negotiations over Ukraine, with comments like this from the Chinese Foreign Ministry I now doubt it.

Too many journalists aren't doing their job and don't challenge the lies of Reform, in their silence they are as culpable as those that directly support the right agenda. It is clear should Reform ever govern, the atrocities we are seeing in the US now would be imported here.

In which case I appreciate your comments even more😊

I agree that it is more important to put the right people in the right posts, but unfortunately local councils are governed by politics and Reform has to take some responsibility for their words and actions, or in this case inaction.
