Anyone heard that Marigold flower juice applied directly to a sty in the eye can cure it? I've seem to remember being told that when I was a boy, but I just wanted to make sure.

I've said it before, but recent images of the hellish visage of Tony Blair remind me. he's committed so much evil that it shows on his face; It's like he is his own picture of Dorian Grey

10 years ago, the legend Tony Benn died. This pic is when he and I were the only two people to turn up at an anti-animal testing event (for Europeans for medical progress that is now Safer Medicines) so we took the opportunity to have our photo taken outside number 10. He was a lovely charming man.

CHRISTMAS GIVEAWAY. If you’d like to gift a copy of Who Wants Normal? to someone who needs it this Christmas (but can’t afford it), I’m giving away my last author copy I just found. I’ll sign and dedicate it. RT and I’ll pick an account at random. Ends Wednesday 3rd December 8pm. U.K. only.
A copy of Who Wants Normal? (with its orange and yellow striped cover) stands upright on a small table. Next to it is a small snow globe with a Santa inside.

What makes you think that? Oh, maybe it's because Nigel Farage was a member and promoter of the National Front, there his is in his flat cap, turned up jeans, and boots.
Image of some nasty white men and a woman, a Union Jack flag, with a younger Nigel Farage wearing his National front badge, next to their leader, on a march for the ultra right wing National Front, in the 70's or 80's.

Today the House of Lords begins its scrutiny of the assisted dying bill They've got the opportunity to prove their worth by doing a better and more honest job than MPs Me for @theguardian.com www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

It’s not too late: the House of Lords can still protect disabled people from this dangerous assisted dying bill | Lucy Webster
MPs passed it without sufficient safeguarding. If there is any point to the upper chamber, it is to give the legislation the open debate we need, says political journalist and author Lucy Webster
