People saying they don't understand why Trump is doing things that will make him unpopular in the polls..........

Trump doesn't care about polls because he's convinced himself there won't be another election to lose

Coin used as Leeds bus fare was 2,000‑year‑old currency The coin was handed down to Peter Edwards from his grandfather in the 1950s.

This is the sort of thing a cashless society robs us of, the opportunity to try to get away with paying the bus fare in Carthaginian currency www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

β€˜Illegitimacy tax’: new UK border rules for dual nationals throwing lives into chaos Two women who have lived almost all their lives in UK, but whose British fathers were not married, tell how they are having to battle for British citizenship

Many Labour MPs persist in believing that because the public support strong borders in the abstract, they will tolerate any consequences of β€˜strong borders’ measures in practice, despite there being a live example proving otherwise *right now*.

Not a religious person but believing in hell is an exceptional comfort to think that Trump will get what's coming to him.

Every time a woman runs for president I hear that she’s too emotional and unstable to make wartime decisions, unlike the men in charge who make really reasonable decisions like bombing kids to death, starting water wars, and poisoning the entire planet

'You shouldn't put that you've worked in so many aspects of books. It's a little unrealistic.' to paraphrase one indie bookshop rejection

Well, yes it turns out it IS impossible to get a simple part-time job based around books after you've had your own bookshop, worked in bookshops, published books, illustrated books, consultation edited, ran book events & generally just want to support bookshops.

Turns out you become overqualifed.
