Christopher Jones @chrisjones.org.uk · 16/09/2026That’s the banana plant, not the banana itself. Since the banana plant doesn’t produce a persisten woody tissue (trunk), it’s herbaceous. And it’s the largest flowering herbaceous plant. 110

Christopher Jones @chrisjones.org.uk · 21/07/2026Criticising a politician for the way they look is missing the mark. I’m guessing he’ll be no different from Starmer - slightly more charisma - and that’ll be the problem. More abandonment of Labour’s founding principles in favour of optics. 110

Christopher Jones @chrisjones.org.uk · 27/06/2026Yeah, not on board with gravy at all. All that delicious potential of perfectly roasted meat and veg… people want to swamp it in a freeze-dried ready mix, making everything taste the same? Awful. And, technically, I wouldn’t have thought gelatin had much effect above 35°C anyway. Gotta use a starch. 240

Christopher Jones @chrisjones.org.uk · 23/05/2026The Earth could have capacity to support a human population 7 or 8 times as large. It’s the false scarcity, dysfunctional logistics, and the hoarding by the rich that puts us at risk. 161

Christopher Jones @chrisjones.org.uk · 12/05/2026I think the lack of talent make them easier to control by the likes of Mandelson and rest of Labour Together who put them there. If they had any charisma, policy ideas, or ideology, there’d be a risk they’d go it alone, become popular and disconnect from their masters. 082

Christopher Jones @chrisjones.org.uk · 28/04/2026Oh, just saw how autocorrect miscorrected that. Is that what you’re reacting to?
