The Baltic States Prepare for War

Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia are readying themselves to fend off a Russian attack—with the help of the United States, or without it.

My designers were off sick and on holiday, I was trying to put together ads on my own for the paper. Did a decent job of it in the end, but... We had a pet parlour client advertising that week, so seeking an image I Googled "dog in a dress". Reader - never, ever, Google "dog in a dress".

At no point since (or during) the creation of democracy in Athens have the politicians or the system ever been perfect. It is, broadly speaking, still the best system we've come up with. And once in a while we get politicians such as Burnham who actually try to make it work.

Brexiters should be rejoicing at Burnham’s speech. They can campaign on all the ways Brexit has improved our lives and the fortunes of our country. They can set their case out clearly and with facts for all to see. Bet they can’t wait.

This, this and more this. "A bit drunk", "stupid mistake", "misread the signs", "a lifelong regret", "otherwise upright young man"... ... none of this is mitigation or a reason for lenient sentencing. If you rape someone, you deserve to have your life fucking ruined.

www.theguardian.com/politics/202... And if there are no jobs? (Which there aren’t outside the big cities). Do any politicians ever ask these questions? Or are these questions a bit awkward? They’re conveniently brushed under the carpet - along with the lives that don’t fit certain criteria.

Avg GDP growth 1945-79: 2.8% Since then: 1.6% And this apparently "broken, economically stagnant" basket case kept its AAA status right through the Winter of Discontent We lost it under Cameron, and it fell again under May, then Johnson, and then Truss: i.e. the whole time Clarke was in govt

We're repeatedly told that asylum seekers pose a threat to the good people of our country... Reading about the threatening and violent treatment of elderly and open minded locals in Crowborough I get the impression that the real threat comes from closer to home. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

On Facebook and other platforms, people
who are known to support the asylum
seekers have been threatened with acid
attacks, petrol bombs and rape. The dossier.
which has been seen by the Guardian, also
claims that several local businesses have
been threatened by far-right agitators, along
with a church where some asylum seekers
worship. One man was punched in the throat
after he held up a "Love Thy Neighbour"
sign, while an elderly couple were falsely
accused of supporting sex offenders. In yet
another case, a 92-year-old church volunteer
was reportedly woken at 3am for two nights
in a row by a man standing outside her
home, shining a torch through her window
and shouting abuse

Bad news, everyone - Brexit has apparently caused the entire United Kingdom to detach from Europe and drift several thousand miles west. We are now slowly approaching Newfoundland. Can someone please let Eurostar now there might be some issues.

“The question is not whether we can afford to remain within the Convention [ECHR]. It is whether, in an increasingly dangerous world, we can afford not to” Political liars and lightweights, like Badenoch and Farage, must never be allowed to take that risk. www.lawgazette.co.uk/commentary-a...

The Law Society
Gazette

In short, if Britain were to leave the ECHR, it would not be
'taking back control. It would be surrendering influence over the rules and institutions that help keep us safe.
The debate about the ECHR is too often conducted as though it were a choice between national sovereignty and international law. That is a false choice.
The Convention advances British interests because it reflects British values: liberty under law, democratic government and the accountability of power.
Walking away would not make Britain freer. It would make Britain weaker.

I keep seeing comments about the US *now* being a "rogue state"... I'll remind those in the US, that their country has continuously interfered with countless countries elections. Here are 14 instances where the US took action because they didn't like leaders or those elected democratically. 1-10 👇🏻

In that very context, the ITV series BLAME perfectly illustrates how poisonous Alpha male group culture helps perverts, sexual attackers, and serial rapists hide in plain sight. Well worth a watch. Especially with older teens!
