The lads and lasses who seem eternally surprised by every minor adjustment that takes place in the entity that we were formerly part of.

Seems unlikely

The US NSS specifically stated that the US has no intention of being a partner. It's intention is to leverage nato to boost us arms manufacturing. They have stated it in words published on their website.

Starmer is a liar or a fool. Neither is acceptable in these times.

Ah, yes. I've done a lot of rambling to say this.

about this, but the history stuff feels the same to me.

I don't know how to communicate my stuff to non needs except through good enough for now analogies.

People never want to go deeper. Curly ds are scary. Spose the techbros have found an answer.

Hmm. Currently stamping down quite hard on my curiosity. Which is difficult.

Senedd? What is this Senedd thing of which you speak?

Starmer's ability to find the exact sweetspot which pisses off everyone is extraordinary. He's a savant.

Lack-of-vision-creep is, simply, Total Starmer.

Ffs.

Bendigedig.

Nope. Only one of us, Jim.

I have to admit it's quite surprising to see a Merkin embrace public ownership with such relish, though.

Maybe civilisation can flourish.

I'm not green for, waves hands, reasons. I woke up on Friday morning 10 mins before the count. Probably cos my subconscious is so tuned to faffing around in leisure centres in the early hours.

Spencer's speech moved me immensely. Wilson's moral crusade or nothing. Labour currently nothing.

A Wolves fan wanting to have a pop?

Pyrrhic victory or sumfink

And is tending towards the Tolkien spelling

Something something Germans have a word something.

Christ, that's bleak.

Even bleaker that it's true.

Lovely to see anarchy out in the wild.

Lovelier still to see someone looking at the consequential kaleidoscope of political choices such as this.

There was no just transition when my works were murdered 20 years ago.

PT looks to me like a similar fate is in store.

🚨 But the Greens put out two 'foreign' campaign videos!

Yes they did. They put out many, many English ones too...

🚨But they shouldn't 'target' specific nationalities or ethnicities!

Oh really? So what was this all about then?👇
