Does speak volumes that you feel the need to make a post about it though, just to remind us that the parties position isn't always 'doing horrific right wing shit.'

Got some old 1920s oak doors that need stripping/dipping and couldn't find anywhere local. You have no idea how timely this post is. Ta!

A steep sided gorge with moss and Autumnal leaves covering the rock faces. Water is rushing through the gorge with the distant trees in full Autumnal foliage. Ffos Anoddun, Eryri, North Wales.

The problem isn't really the clocks or the time changing its that its fucking winter and we are should not be having to do 8 hours of work a day but like 4 tops and most of that should be pickling and knitting stuff.

Met her once at a house party in Chester in the late 90's. We were discussing ongoing tensions between India and Pakistan and her view was 'to leave the dirty sand n***ers to it. We've tried to educate them and this is the thanks we get.'

She was off her tits at the time iirc.

Damn, I guess it turns out getting into power entirely through fraud (sometimes literal illegal fraud), calling your entire base scum who can fuck off, and then continuing the 14 years of Tories ideology that people rejected, isn't a recipe for popularity.

That scene of the Welsh BBC correspondent being the only person interviewing Caerphilly's new Plaid AM while the rest of the media interviewed Reform's loser in the background was far too on the nose.

David Bull there, adding his name to the list of Reform people who knew Nathan Gill well, after Farage's attempt to claim that he was an unknown.

A graph to show how welfare costs have remained conaistant over the last 40+ years

A graph to show how welfare costs have remained conaistant over the last 40+ years

The welfare bill has been consistently 4-5% of GDP for the last 40 years+. That’s rubbish that politicians tell people, along with implying benefit claimants are scroungers to justify cuts

It's almost like he never had those views in the first place and he's duped people twice. First the Labour Party members and second, the electorate. This is who he is. A spineless shit of a man.

This is why Starmer said we wouldn’t be getting closer to the EU. It’s because we can’t, he’s signed contracts with big corporations who will then effectively govern Britain and these corporate zones aren’t allowed by the EU.

Confused as to why there’s not more publicity? Me too.

1. Yes ( GTTO )
2. Green, like I should've done.
3. Deceit, lies, betrayal, more lies, Starmer being a fraudulent cvnt, his cabinet packed with Israeli shills, lies, stoking division, punching down, lies, pandering to the far right. Oh and more lies.

Yup. Bite your nose off to spite your face. Or to appease xenophobic, bigoted little eNgLanDeRs who want everything to be like the 1950s with cocaine and the internet.

Β£20 for a pizza. Last time I went I couldn't pay with cash, had to order through their app, had to sign up and agree terms to use their in house wifi to do so. Open app, enter card details, approve payment on banking app and accept t&cs via email. At no point did I speak with anyone.

I found one ladies sandal at the top of Middle Black Clough in the Peak District a few years ago.

It was a size 11. That's no small feet.
