Old white male. Aspie. Straight. 1. Buy British, eg 70% PRUK 30% GILS 2. HODL 3. Profit! One party for the 5% (aristocracy, oligarchs, elite), and one for the 95%, choose wisely! #diet #lcl6 #fifo #paleo #keto #politics #BrainEnergy

They could look at a recent example, e.g. the Gaza War. It started on 7th October, 2023, over 29 months ago. Israel stopped hostilities ... errr ... they haven't stopped.

This is ridiculous.
"In 2025, the government announced plans to explore a revised form of private finance to help deliver new neighbourhood health centres ..."
Maybe some of the big charities could look at bidding for some of these contracts??

Yeah, it's hard. Years ago, I didn't like Blair to start with (didn't trust that perpetual smile!) and then after the illegal Iraq war I refused to vote for Labour. This felt like a mistake after we'd had 14 more years of Tory gov but we can only decide with the info we have at the time. 🤷
The assumption has to be that the US will bomb Iran into dust, as they have done to Iraq twice during my lifetime.
If that is true, then it doesn't make much difference what Iran do! "May as well be hanged for a sheep as a lamb".
The US is creating the incentives ...

It seems like the left just love to criticise; the other party, their party, it doesn't matter who.
If more people voted Labour *all the time*, the right of the party wouldn't be pushing right so much to try and get into power.

What do you think about the absolute nutters that leave money to charity?

Yes. I'm embarrassed that I've only recently realised that these reforms might actually make the HoL worse!
I've never been a fan of the argument that hereditary lords are relatively independent but it does seem that recent PM choices have been even worse ☹️

In similar news, I've entered the EuroMillions tonight, so I could be a mega-millionaire soon!

I suggest ignoring what they say, and watching *really carefully* what they do.

Agreed. The US is a rogue state now.
Tell them they have 3 years to plan, then they will have to start dismantling their bases on our soil.
In the meantime, tell them they are not allowed to use them even for "defensive" operations against Iran.
