“Sir Keir Starmer’s chief legal officer has likened attempts by the Tories and Reform to pull Britain out of international courts to 1930s Nazi Germany.” Imagine that.

I wrote last week how absurd it is that a rainy island nation like ours is worrying about water, and how the real culprit was not privatisation but our absurd planning system.

All right, I'll support Bringing Back Boris if its to sacrifice him at the top of a pyramid.
"The best argument for Big Dog’s return is catharsis. René Girard, a French philosopher in vogue, argues that society relies on scapegoats in order to rub along... whether a teenager dragged to the top of an Aztec pyramid or Jesus Christ hung on a cross." https://t.co/f9YKIElC2s

Just got reminded of this.
