I like cooking, photography, reading, music and wine. I have two Westies who I love dearly and I am in a civil partnership. History is a passion of mine, also Wargaming. Take a look at my blog https://hippolytastinyfootsteps.blogspot.com/

Abuse by UK’s β€˜most prolific sex offender’ was ignored at Medomsley detention centre, report finds Neville Husband committed hundreds of offences while working at facility in County Durham from 1969 to 1985

Here's another case of historic sexual abuse the flag-shaggers won't be getting outraged about;

Procrastination Is Starmer's special power.

And that is because two of the three things you list were lies and the other one misguided.

Indeed. I remember predicting in 2016 that Brexit was just the first stage in a right-wing coup d'etat, at least a decade or more in the planning, organised from Tufton Street with lots of backing from the USA. Now, with this and calls to leave the ECHR and Reform on the rise, I am sure I was right.

Gibb is part of the anti-BBC Fifth Column.

Yes, Trump's words were edited, but that doesn't make it a false narrative. BBC insiders have colluded in attempts to destabilise and overthrow the BBC, people like Sir Robbie Gibb who helped create GB News and owns the Jewish Chronicle. He thinks that the BBC is too "woke" and anti-Israel.

Farage's head is so far up Trump's arse you can't see anything of him from the waist up.

'BBC Bias' Memo Was Authored by Lobbyist Tied to Pro-Trump Tech Giants The leaked memo that fuelled Trump’s attack on the BBC was written by a lobbyist at a firm paid by US tech giants tied to the President

In case you were wondering about the background to the BBC resignations and who Michael Prescott is, it all becomes clear. We are seeing a right-wing plot to destroy the BBC.

The Labour right has always been very Atlanticist.

No, nor can I. Under Starmer, Labour is happy to see the UK turn into Airstrip One.

And the UK government should tell Trump that it won't take any notice and, if necessary expel all US diplomats and spooks.

Yes, and they are being aided and abetted by Farage and his clown troupe.

True, but I'm still glad to see him go. He's mostly to blame for the BBC's anti-EU, pro-Reform shift to the Right.

The Menin Gate is a very moving place, as is the Thiepval Memorial.

I've been there twice, in 2020 and 2021. They were twin sisters, Maisie went first at 14, from diabetes complications and Daisy went almost a year to the day later from cancer. Knowing when to let them go is the last loving gift you can give them. You have my deepest sympathies.

It was later changed to allow for the conscription of married men.

Yes, in 1916, I think, but not for married men and there were exemptions for a lot of areas of employment.

My parents were teenagers during the war. My father was horribly racist when I was growing up in the 60s and they were both homophobic. Their attitudes were very much the norm back in the 40s and also in the 50s, 60s and 70s.

Conscription was always the plan in the event of war, because it was widely understood after the previous war that relying on voluntary enlistment wasn't going to be enough. It was recognised that war in 1939 would require mobilising the entire country.

Glasman is a menace. To me, he looks very much like a PΓ©tainist. He certainly shouldn't be involved in Labour politics.

What a great word, even better than lickspittle, which seems applicable to so many of our politicians.

I suspect that there are some people in this country who would support burning at the stake and public executions too.

Lunatics are never far away.
