All households contain working people.
A lot of work is unpaid.

For that matter, I think the Welsh Green party should be separate. They are separate countries as well.

Aah, that's what it was. I knew they were completely separate, and understand the reasons why.
I had misunderstood the bit about talks for relinking formal relations as talks about unifiying them.
To be honest, I did wonder at that because they really should be separate.

A slight uptick in recent weeks does not mean a lot, especially since Starmer's latest utter clusterfuck and the ongoing repercussions surrounding the Epstein files and their open support for genocide.
And being beaten into third in Gorton and Denton will make a serious dent in their credibility

Come to that, it's not even the correct link for GPEW.
I mistyped. πŸ˜‚ Lucky I am not an official spokesperson.

Well spotted and thank you.
Although I hear there is serious talk of reuinting the two organisations?

Yep. Collapsing.
Cherry picking your polls is not wise. It leaves you unaware of how dire your situation is.
But that's fine. Keep kidding yourselves.

That would be good

Okay. 🀣
Plenty more are, and Labour is collapsing. Good

Really? I think it is hilarious.
The utter shit-show that is the Labour Party right now is a fucking delight. Pass the popcorn and join the Green Party. πŸ˜€

The Corbyn era, when they had more members than at any time in history and got more votes than Brown or Starmer.

Can't quite believe that this nonce might potentially go to prison for financial crimes and not for shagging children. 😑

He should absolutely be in prison.
It should not matter where you are born, who your parents are, or how much wealth or power you have.
NOBODY should be above the law.

Okay, so, whoever this Bad Bunny is, it's cool to like them, based purely on the Tango Turd's reaction. πŸ˜€
Saves me watching the video.
Right, back to work.

Please be aware that you will not get rich from this. You will be doing well to break even. But you will have a professional ---- which you will rightly be proud of.

Starmer's Labour have achieved a remarkable increase in renewable energy by attaching generators to Kier Hardie, Clement Attlee, Nye Bevan, etc. to harness the power of them spinning in their graves.

Did political correctness have extreme manifestations that sometimes divided people ? Yes it did.
Was it preferable to racists being back in charge & allowed to spew their divisive filth?
Yes it fucking was.

We might be kindred spirits.
For an appraisal I wrote
Best thing about working here? Nice customers.
Worst thing? Obnoxious customers.
Manager said, "You can't write that."
I said, "Yes I can, otherwise what is the point in asking me the question?"
He had to agree.

Die on it then. Nobody will mourn.

Articles like that make me more determined to say thank you, sincerely and effusively.
Having worked in public facing roles myself I know just how demoralising it can be.
Civility or politeness, are the true hallmarks of a decent society.

In Wales they have made some attempt to prevent liars and cheats from being in their Sennedd.
Lots of commentators said "But there will be nobody left!"
And I just thought, "Okay, that's fine." πŸ˜€
Better to have an empty chamber, or just one or two honest people, than a room full of liars.
