I don't understand why the Cornell rapist would flee to Dubai when he could've stayed in the US and become a Republican politican, pastor, SCOTUS justice or maybe even president.

Particularly, I suspect, Women. They think it looks cool. They think they’re discreet and no-one knows they vape. The vape can be like a fashion accessory. They vape non-stop without a break, worse than chainsmoking.

bbc.co.uk

One million UK people who have never smoked are now vapers

Latest statistics also show, for the second year in a row, more over-16s vape than smoke.

Ed Davey’s media team wishing they’d thought of this first. They’re currently sequestered in a room doing feasibility studies on Ed being handcuffed to a celebrity while at the same time driving a bulldozer or going down a water chute. Looking good for Spring Conference!

Their manifesto was until quite recently just Corbyn era Labour. They were never that good on the environment. Until recently were in favour of leaving NATO. Their membership clearly swelled by all the magic grandpa clan who brought their antisemitism with them. A National shame.

I had thought Pressure was going to be an all male type war film but my son said it’s really about new meterelogical science. So now I’m interested.

Yes, usually see everything at the cinema but want to watch that one with my son so timing is key. We weren’t sure about Digger. I discovered that Pressure is still on, haven’t seen that yet and want to watch the Charles de Gaul epic before that departs. Apparently Sense & Sensibility isn’t great

Where I am- Heart of the Beast is at odd times or on small screens but I’ve found I can buy/rent it on Prime. Cheaper than cinema for 2. So watched Verity at the cinema and next weekend we’ll watch HotB at home.

By way of example, see the prosecutions in absentia against Lee Hsien Yang + wife here in UK and against their son at Harvard. Defend or don’t defend, the ruling regime always wins in its own courts. Trial by jury is our basic democratic right and I’m glad there has been a U-turn on this.

And saying this or any indeed any criticism of the lack of jury trial or of the judicial process would get me arrested and charged with, “scandalising the judiciary” a ridiculous but still criminal offence in Singapore.

Amanda Jeyaretnam (she/her) @liberalisms.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

In Singapore there are no juries. It was hard to explain to people the peril my husband was in should the AG have decided to press charges for whatever. Judges are essentially appointed by the PM. For anyone who dissents, a guilty verdict in absentia, is the inevitable result -See Lee Hsien Yang etc

No car. I get heavy stuff delivered. Locally I buy little & often. I’m surrounded by supermarkets but tend to use the specialist greengrocer and middle-eastern store more. Buy cheese at the monthly cheese market, bread from local baker. There’s an artisan butcher too. Nothing goes off/gets wasted

Exactly. The rudder and parts ripped off during the descent. I’m just saying the plumber had extraordinary luck as well as courage & presence of mind that based on watching tv shows, he pulled up just enough to recover the plane but not too much so that he damaged it further. We’ll never know.

But Sully was a pilot and the captain of that flight. Just saying the “plumber” was lucky for a complete amateur.

2/ or his intervention was actually minimal and brief before the reserve pilots came in and took over. I do find flying massively enjoyable by the way.

Sure, fighter jets have ground avoidance control systems. However, whatever smart system was in place for this commercial jet must have been disabled for the suicide pilot to have put it into the steep dive in the first place. Maybe plumber was just lucky 1/

Anybody who thinks the plumber was actually a plumber but also thinks you can just pull a plane out of a deep dive without causing the wings to be ripped off or the plane body to be torn to pieces - while also avoiding extreme stress on the human body - doesn’t know much about Israel …or planes

Bill Nighy has got a whole podcast devoted to this! I think it was the Australians who imported that trend though. Barbie, arvo, avo, mossie etc although they shorten and add an ending. In Japan they love portmanteaus. Can be very confusing. Eg sumartoho, pasokon, appuri,

My son is visiting and has made spaghetti Bolognaise* for dinner. Probably the best SB I’ve had for years but then he did get a lot of help from The Ginger Pig butcher in the high road. First time eating red meat in ages too. *NB: if you call it “Spag Bol”, Bill Nighy will cancel you.

Bobby is one of my favourites along with Josh but then I’m a little biased in favour of Indian and/or ethnic minority heritage. However the people who vote and influence on these things are Tory-lite and will usually go with a Kinder, Küche, Kirchetype candidate.

I’d favour Max Wilkinson because every media report would reference the time he did not call Nigel Farage a ‘stupid cunt’. Even though he didn’t say it, I would personally derive a lot of joy from seeing Nigel Farage + stupid cunt being repeated everywhere

EG- rice pudding, apple pie, ginger bread. But more, the idea that British food has “no spices” in it only works if you think the average British person is Tommy Robinson. Even then, you can get a curry at Wetherspoons. If you eat the food my family eats there is no shortage of spice.
