Photographer mostly shooting in Banbury, illustrating words from @thebanburian. The #TransatlanticCats will feature largely. Yes, I rant about politics. No, I'm not interested in DMs. πŸ“· #OMSystem

5k achieved - and with a couple of hills included too. Ahead of schedule too, just 5 weeks to get it back. 😊 #running #runfatboyrun

News this morning that Air France-KLM is the latest airline/group to have exposed customer data via a third-party supplier platform penetration.

Sounds suspiciously similar to the ongoing series of attacks: here's the why and the how:

I see the numpties have reverted back to "use vinegar on the sky" from "force feed vinegar to tear gas victims"

Secession is unthinkable, but this is the kind of thing that triggers it. The reporting says the FBI "has agreed" to help, but on what basis? Apparently a senator's request, which is not a law. So, we're looking at a lawless action by FBI targeting another state entity w/in its plain legal authority

Article 1, Section 9 & 10 have been removed from the official Govt website on the US Constitution. Among numerous points:
β€’Section 9 forbids suspending The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus
β€’Section 10 forbids ex post facto laws

This better be a joke. Ignoring these is full blow dictatorship

The 'land of the free', who have allowed their own children to be slaughtered by the thousand to protect their right to own guns to 'defend against tyrants', largely seem pretty willing to submit to dictatorship.

Once again, Democrats could hold daily press conferences relaying the details of one Republican pervert or pedophile after another

So, Corbyn’s β€œparty” is actually like Farage’s β€œparty” in that it’s a private company. Such a progressive left-wing approach innit

β€œTreason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.” U.S. Const. Art.III, S. 3, Cl. 1.

So Obama was levying war against the U.S.? Giving aid and comfort to Russia…by accusing them?? Confused

There seems to be an emerging view that the country will turn to the far-right in 2029 and that it is something we need to go through in order to reject it. I find that complacency extraordinary. Once the far-right gets in, it will not give power up.

I hope everyone notices that Trump is trying to normalize the idea of arresting political opponents for no reason

(Trump attempted a coup in 2021 so miss me with the false equivalences)

There's a tendency to view the history of British antisemitism as a story of subtle prejudice, codes and euphemisms expressed by wink and nod in the club and the drawing room. Occasionally, however, the mask was properly ripped off. #OnThisDay 1920: advert for The Morning Post newspaper...
