I never thought I would see anything like this in my lifetime. NATO troops massing to protect a NATO county from MY country--the Unitged States of America. This whole scenario Trump and his authritarian asdvisors have created is unprecedented and insane. How can anyone defemnd this?

Reminder: On his first day in office, Trump pardoned 1,500 Jan. 6 rioters. More than 600 had been charged with assaulting, resisting, or obstructing law enforcement, including about 175 accused of using deadly or dangerous weapons or causing serious injury to officers.

A true foundation, a pillar of our music, and one of the first to carry reggae out into the world

Five years ago. This did not save a single life, but ruined millions of childhoods for months and months.
Absolute madness.

I think my most nineteenth century belief is that we should all take our free time much more seriously. I wrote this on the virtues of self-education and against wasting time on screens

We’re spending hundreds of millions on a circus, designed so that those who devised and implemented lockdowns can tell us what a wonderful idea it all was…
Does it surprise anybody they’re ferociously defending their own failed policy?
It’s all so utterly depressing.

Very sad to hear of the passing of Councillor and Trade Unionist Julie Davies, a great friend who fought passionately for our community, young people and teachers in Haringey. She will leave a hole in all our hearts and we send love and condolences to her two boys Harry and Ted.
We are deeply saddened to announce that Cllr Julie Davies, Cabinet Member for Communities and Civic Life, has passed away following a short illness.
Our thoughts are with her family and friends at this sad time.

Great bit of news of to end 2022... wish Labour could come out and agree with this too.
We're putting an end to compulsory mask wearing in care homes in time for Christmas.
I hope this means thousands more people in care will get to see a smile this winter: gov.uk/government/news/mask-…

Exactly why does this justify a £65bn govt handout? You should be able to weather price movements without getting bailed out & why shouldn't govt pay 7% to borrow if inflation is 10%?
This latest QE took us into even more dangerous territory. Private profits, socialised losses.
If you're wondering what the RMT want, this is on their website:
"RMT’s position in all pay negotiations is for an above RPI inflation pay rise".
Current RPI = 11.1%.

"Working people deserve a pay rise...The British working classes should not have to beg to address the cost-of-living crisis that faces us."
This is not a race-to-the-bottom, British workers need to stand together and assert their right for a fair wage.
