Ageing, much travelled.
Formerly involved in nuclear power, non proliferation and politics.
Now into writing, nature conservation and real life.
Its because Starmer is empathy and charisma free. As a junior in chambers he was a valued administrator but was kept away from juries because he lacked vital interpersonal skills. He is naturally risk averse and that's why we see almost total inertia on what the public see as "big issues".

Why is Wilson there? Full explanation and justification please.
December 12, 2025 at 5:23 PM
Have you ever been there? If "shithole" required a real life definition...

Her "pay" is an obscenity and the fact that a Labour government allows this sort of thing with an "industry" which produces nothing and exploits millions is sickenly unjust.

It's just a slight tweek for the USA. It's pretty obvious if you consider the constant obsession with regime change, lust for resources, tolerance of corruption, lack of respect for international law & domestic justice, pandering to compliant autocrats and near deification of billionaires.

Well "David" is clearly not a "Democratic Socialist", why is he in the Labour Party?

Me and my pimp.

Well they've got more guns than people and a racist for a "president" so they need to be careful.

Well it is Darlington - what do you expect?

What a prize grovelling twat that man is.

Look lets face it, the UK is f*cked. All fellow pensioners need to focus on enjoyment, hoping they can afford private healthcare, avoiding care homes to retain every asset they've ever built up and hoping they peg out before a Reform government and/or the inevitable War.

Reform announce National Day of Mourning?

So having continued with Hinkley Point - 100% overspent and 10 years late, they are repeating the error with Sizewell and we still dont know whether either will actually work. As for SMR's, is there a credible design other than Westinghouse? - oh and the waste issue?!

F*ck me sideways, we're on the verge of conflict with Russia, the USA is planning to buy up the rubble Europe may be reduced to and he is using precious time drivelling about bus shelters. We're doomed.

I'm afraid she's just crossed a line for me "praising" Zionism is a fascistic act given its current incarnation.

I think you ought to rename your "Supreme Court", I can't think of anything rude enough.

A definition of insanity?

It's a disgusting betrayal - there is no other explanation.

The USA is a criminal conspiracy.
