I think California should separate from America. And New Mexico should go back to Mexico.

Ukainians' concern for pets and other animals is a striking national characteristic. Warms the heart a little, amid so much destruction.

And I believe Suella Braverman let in a lot of migrants, including 2 Iranians who arrived by boat and now arrested on terrorism charges.

It's conference time. They even interviewed Ed Davey during his conference. It's not some sort of planned support or propaganda effort, just conference fluff.

So? It's conference time. Even the Lib Dems got airspace during their conference. Back to normal next week... Farage gets top billing... (only joking)

Have any of us ever missed not having a 'garbage disposal'? and drying clothes outside is free and just the natural thing to do. In america they actually ban it, can you imagine!

Nuclear War: A Scenario by Annie Jacobsen details just how intimately involved in every stage of a US repsonse to nuclear attack thepresident is. Go read it and imagine Trump as the president in it... You'll be utterly petrified.

It's a twice baked biscuit. Rock hard. And it was full of beetle grubs after a while which (the guide on HMS Victory told me) were regarded as a delicacy.

It is a murky, mysterious story, but not a non story. Removal of the bombers is a significant development in UK/Us relations for example. (Yay! they ae gone!)

Abolish fraternity houses... I don't know of any other country which has them or their culture. Here in the UK we have mixed sex university accomodation.

Nonsense until Trump actually nukes LA and claims it was the Iranians.

Well we all here can point out Lowe talks nonsense and that he is driven by hate. But we have a problem: he isn't speaking to an empty room. Around 5,000 people left comments on a Mail article on Gosport yesterday, 90% of them backing the ideas in Lowe's post.

Excatly. This means not only those awaiting asylum claims, not only everyone granted it for years back, but people who have legitimately settled in the UK.

Plenty of material on the museum walls to engender debate - this Dore work, 'the riddle of the Sphinx' always struck me, a pointed comment on war.

And ironically the Labour govt are already trying to 'relax' planning laws... And when their voters find it means more houses, solar farms and data centres outside their green belt homes...

Who is paying his legal costs? I could never afford to challenge a police search on my house. How on earth does ruling searches which took place illegal help his case??

And the UK police don't bail genuine bombers the next day. Lord knows we've arrested enough terrorists over the years (many of them equipped with explosives paid for by US citizens)

Frankly I wish my country had never let these planes in in the first place. We don't want any part of America's failed, ponitless, illegal, forever war.
