I’m not a big labour fan but they got a respectable vote share despite having low popularity right now. Hardly grounds for panic, there’s still over three years until the next general election.

I was shocked when I found out… then I felt old

They love to threaten, don’t forget the ‘violence’ promised if the Brexit vote went the wrong way

Ffs, that is stark when you put it like that!

Same with my kids, although I have spent the last 15 years of their lives trying to influence their politics 😂

Gen X? Really! That’s depressing.

But! Sov rin tea!!!!

Meet the Millionaires

Possibly he’s referring to these guys. Plus there’s a uk version too.

Or as I saw it so simply and effectively put
1 million minutes ago it was 2024
1 billion minutes ago emperor Hadrian visited Britain
And that is the scale of wealth we’re talking about

Have you read stark by Ben Elton ? If not then you should as I swear that it’s literally coming true!

Well that’s a bit simplistic, ancient Britons were farmers, had a system of localised laws and their own monetary systems. Stone henge, Avebury, they made huge chalk artworks visible across the landscape. They were herbalists, it was more nuanced than sacrificing animals.

And a healthy dose of ideocracy

A series of photos of the moness waterfalls

Breathtaking (if a little damp) stagger round the falls of Moness at Aberfeldy. A little late to start but keen to return and explore again.

We did leave though, we left with hard Brexit, as requested.

True, they were happy enough to crow about the win and call us sore losers, I’m at the stage where it’s their turn to suck it up for a bit!

It’s felt like we’re being ‘talked into’ a reform government since the last election, the media treatment of labour, Lib Dem’s, snp, greens and plaid is atrocious

Saw this beautiful work at the national gallery last month by Edwin Austen Abbey. Not an artist I’d ever heard of, I was completely captivated by it.

Can you link to an article stating this please as I can find evidence that he’s said he wouldn’t work with the current labour leadership, which is fair as they’re opposed on a lot of issues, not that he’d rather see Reform win.

Grey squirrels are not supposed to be here, they are invasive and kill the native squirrels, which are a red list species here in the uk.

It’s as good a place as any! Arborist’s pie?

The brass neck of these people!

my grandparents used to thrive on rabbit and pheasant, all free and abundant, all invasive species and a practical solution to not having enough money for cuts from the butcher. I’m sure some enterprising bod out there could set up a hot squirrel softie stand! Or bettered deep fried squirrel.

Lovely birds, one of my favourites

It’s a good idea, we just need a chef to sell people on it. Although we are a rather beige nation when it comes to food, game meat is not very popular!

I spotted a little red dart across the road near St Michael’s in Fife so they must be hanging on nearby us somewhere, it was one of those moments where you almost crash the car 😬

They most definitely are not when they are living in the wrong location sadly

No one excelled at it quite like victorians, with plants, fish, animals and insects exported all over the world for ornamentation or cultivation

I saw a white grey once in Exeter along with a few patchy leucistic ones. Where I used to live in Hertfordshire we had a black squirrel belt (not a black belt squirrel 😂) with a disproportionate number of melanistic squirrels!

Sadly despite their cuteness they are a real issue in the uk, where they outcompete and carry disease which has decimated the red squirrel population

I was in London last month, some bloke saw my bag and called out “Stradivarius?! Isn’t that a type of violin?” I replied it was, he said “brilliant, I thought it was” and walked on. Literally crapping myself in fear 😧
