Not just Starmer, lots of them. There are a few that hold the old Labour values but not many. Unfortunately the press evicerate anyone who openly holds left ideology so unless they moved right there was no way they could get elected.

Do they know lying is not very Christian?

Oh but they didn't give him the Nobel Peace Prize, so he isn't doing that any more, if he doesn't get a prize!

It was the same here with Boris Johnson and his cabinet. It seems that British politics works on the gentleman's agreement that people will behave with a level of decency. And Mr Johnson did not operate that, even tho he is technically a gentleman, related to most of the Royal families in Europe.

Lucky you. OK the editor is forgiven 🙂. Although I am actually quite enamoured of elephants 🐘 🐘 🐘. Too much Disney probably!

In some ways I think that maybe an editor could have tightened it up a bit but then I think that something unique about it would have been lost. However, I am not a reader of GAD that is fixated on the mystery/plot I enjoy the time travel more. 🙂

If you think this is true you are deluded.

Not sure that's actually a thing, sure it's the reason for everyone having guns, guns that kill 4,000 children a year, but when it actually come down to it, not so much.

I agree. None of your politicians are going to step up here (there are notable exceptions but not enough), the citizens of the US have to take responsibility, after all, it's why you have all those damn guns????

They haven't been that much better, with a few notable exceptions.

The constitution is worth nothing, the famous checks and balances are worth nothing. Honestly, pathetic!

It's worth exactly nothing. The constitution is nothing, the checks and balances are nothing. And to all the Americans who have explained to me after each and every school shooting that they have to have weapons to protect their country from a rogue govt I say Fuck You!!!!

I love this book. I know others find it meandering but I like a good meander. Lots of interesting stuff about memory and the nature of remembering or not! I identify with that! 😂

Sadly, he won't get it. I dont think a narcissist at that level can be humiliated. I think you have to have some concept of morality and shame. He has neither.

That would just make him a martyr for MAGA.

I hope he goes to prison where he belongs.

This is so awful and so clearly not true, we could all see for ourselves, why do they insist on telling us a lie about something we have just seen for ourselves.

That's exactly why they like him. Nothing he says or writes is beyond their comprehension.

26.02.2026 16:50 — 👍 1    🔁 0    💬 1    📌 0

Its because he knows no one can do anything about it.

They don't get it because they are stupid. That's why they like him, he speaks like them, reads like them, writes like them. What other politicians say, do and write makes them feel dumb.

You mean other than the part about Somalians? And immigrants importing corruption and crime into the US and many or most immigrants are unable to read a traffic sign. All unsubstantiated and even if some immigrants do bad things which is statistically likely it is racist to say all....

I also think death is where the damage lies.

I think they should be legalised. It would remove the need for drug dealers and all that goes with it. Drugs would be controlled and safer, not cut with poison or unsafe products. We have been fighting it this way since I was at school in the 70s. I think it's time we tried something else.
