Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 10/10/2026But you surely the Swedish option is there. A commitment to joining the Euro but without the commitment to ERM2 which is the precursor and so never joing the Euro (even though I would prefer Euro). 030
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 09/10/2026NHS Blood is crying out for donors. Try and donate after a little period away and they refuse me for no reason. Seriously annoyed! 000
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Weren't they called 'Bin Ladens'? Criminal and rarely seen? 130
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 04/10/2026I was thinking something along the lines of the Earth Party - gives environmental focus but also the sense of social justice. 110
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Would the Scottish Party ever consider changing its name to make the difference clear? 200
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 02/10/2026If they get expelled from Premier League then its up to the EFL to place them and I can't see why they wouldn't do League 2. 080
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 29/09/2026It's a pyramid scheme though. Do you want the average person to get more, the same or less than they put in (plus growth)? The average pensioner lives about 15 years but paid in whilst life expectancy was lower and pensioners received less. 000
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Would you class Fiji as an example? It relates to colonialism but it was the UK bringing in Indian workers. Prior to the 87 coup there were more Indo-Fijians than iTaukei. 111
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Only got 27 in 5 minutes. When the pictures came up, I could pick out the constituencies but names are a blank (e.g. Tottenham and St Albans). Others, I know your name, no idea how to spell it so not bothering guessing. 020
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 23/09/2026With a mixture of LDs either being nowhere or winning, Lab not doing well in LD areas so can add a few % elsewhere and evidence of large anti-Ref voting, I suspect it'll be disproportionately Lab. However, there will be some absolutely wild results. And I suspect winners on less than 25% in places. 080

Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Tempted to email my MP (and Immigration Minister) and ask for border controls to be set up around Piddington. Let them see the consequences of their actions. 001
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Based on these, is there anyone in the country who doesn't class themselves as working class? 021

Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 02/09/2026To become PM you need a good number of 'tribes' to back you. You can build your coalition before the election or you can build it afterwards. She seems to be saying she will do neither. 010
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 01/09/2026He has blamed #Brexit as a negative for 10 years of shit. Was not expecting that. Let's see if it leads to any concrete changes (yet to be convinced). 000
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 01/09/2026When these results came out last time (a year ago?) there were some seriously weird combinations of opinions. Based on that - Liking Ed Davey and Restore simultaneously is possible. 000
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 31/08/2026And It's 2 years from the election, that number will shrink further. 120
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Home in bed - dad told me first thing in the morning. At school in the English block. On the way to a holiday in Lincolnshire. Agreed not many events that I could do but can do those three.school.in 010
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 11/08/2026Chilli works in antiques, bandit in airport security..... 100
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 05/08/2026Also, I met Jacques at a book signing. The queue was massive but he had time for everyone. Of course I wasn't just happy with the new book in my hand - I had to ask him about the next book which I'd seen mentioned in the fan club letter as well - which he gave a full poem about. 010
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 05/08/2026Amazing thread. The Redwall series was my favourite as a child. In the next year or so, I'm going to read them to my children, can't wait, although I will now be reading them with this theory in mind. Thank you. 110
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 04/08/2026I'm sure there are people far more qualified than me to answer but since 1066 there have been changes on: Normandy, Aquitaine, Scotland, Ireland, the Empire. 160
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 02/08/2026When would they normally be harvested for gin? Can you eat them raw? 110
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 28/07/2026At the very minimum 14 of the 34 will be lost. I would be shocked, however, if there aren't at least 30 (and I expect 32). 110
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 28/07/2026I remember from school seeing cartoons from 1912 (?) showing it as an unearned handout. 001
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 27/07/2026PC will be nowhere near 1.5-2 (they stand in 0.5% of seats). They'll be a few minor parties as well. 100
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 25/07/2026And yes, I am the sort of guy to talk about their race all weekend :) 010
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 25/07/2026It's actually 10 mile - quite a rare event. Also well done B - good time there (I do know that guy not random stalkering). 230
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 24/07/2026I think that is the only horse in the series. It is big enough to be able to pull a cart with a whole army on. 130
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 24/07/2026There is obviously a size difference in the animals, but the Redwall Mouse to Badger size ratio is nowhere near the real world size difference. (10:1 v 3:1?). So would Redwall basically be suitable for humans? 1150
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 24/07/2026If she's doing all that driving, maybe she is driving to restaurants, or, like my next door neighbour, gets takeaway twice a day. 020
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 22/07/2026Both this and the VAT cut have had some awful reporting. They're not enough, they are going to bankrupt the country, they don't benefit me personally... FFS, they are small easy measures done on days 2 and 3. Give him a chance! 030
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 20/07/2026If that's the plan - hopefully he will realise that he needs to find some funding for a proper Sheffield to Manchester train line. 020
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 20/07/2026My 7 year old is on her sixth. I was 28 on my sixth (and there are those who are eight years older than me who had the same first six). 000
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 16/07/2026If the Falklands want to become independent, no one would stop them. 010
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 16/07/2026That's surely a repeat of half the rest rolled into one. Also, are they good pieces of legislation? 001
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 15/07/2026Atrocious idea. All for India and it screws over the three teams would would have played against the big nations - it's essentially another qualification round. 000
Chris B @chrisdb9.bsky.social · 15/07/2026My first thought was Tristram Hunt, head of the V&A. Is he in public life? 100
