What language is this??? "Over the seas and it comes right over our land. And then they want us to have clean, l said wait a minute, we're gonna have clean but it's all flying. Just remember that. Does that make sense? In other words, it's all coming through the currents through the air. It all comes. You can, they can name it, they can say exactly where it's going to be and when." - Donald Trump
Even Google can't translate this...
With this large of a sample size and ability to control for external variables, the conclusions of this study are more robust and well-supported by evidence.
WELL NOW, would you look at that?
A massive, 26-YEAR-LONG study of MORE THAN 2.4 MILLION people in Sweden found NO EVIDENCE to support a causal link between acetaminophen (the API in Tylenol) use during pregnancy and increased risk of autism, ADHD, OR intellectual disability in children.
Oh my God, just hearing Paul McCartney‘s latest song, such a shame to hear someone so talented, not know when to stop, his reedy weak voice, dull lyrics..
Utter crap❗️ Some people never know when to quit 🤷🏼♂️
Seven people have been arrested in the U.K. on suspicion of conspiracy to commit an arson attack targeting the Jewish community in London.
Even more insufferable than Trump.
Actually worse than David Brent, Richard Madeley, and Alan Partridge.
Totally
Shocked.
I tell you.
Shocked.
Importantly that neutralises the accusation of lying, or deliberately misleading the Commons.
The remaining criticism is that Starmer and No10 put too much pressure on FCDO to appoint Mandelson no matter what.
Whereever your stand, this foreign affairs committee process is very impressive, as is Robbins. Everybody incredibly forensic, precise, polite, yet unyielding. Relentless.
Yeah.
Perfectly normal location for petrol pumps
Totally believable

'the world of lentils' sounds like Britain's strangest theme park
Child: I know your name. Mamdani.
Obama: What’s his first name?
Child: Mayor.
photo of someone in the Olly Robbins parliamentary evidence session wearing a black suit jacket with a black and white striped shirt with what appears to be a brown rollneck jumper underneath but might be a strange necklace, hard to tell. Red handkerchief square in breast pocket. Frowning.
Photo of The League of Gentlemen's Edward Tattsyrup, co-proprietor of the Local Shop on the outskirts of Royston Vasey. It is a Local Shop for local people. He's wearing a very similar outfit to the previous person and looking incredulous.
Edward?
Oh, yes!
Yes, it's a bit weird!
Looks like he might be ghost who once lived in that building...
He was also joining in dramatically with his body language responses, too!
Trouble is: Where does the box go?
Who sees to this?
When you have 1000+ phones to look after every day, it gets a bit unmanageable.
They won't get the staff, anyway, even if given extra money.
Who would want a job, on a pittance, confronting children about phone use???
I thought exactly that!
Phones to be banned in schools by law in England under govt plans.
Who will do body and bag searches, confiscations, fines, appeals?
How many more school staff will be needed? Cost?
Why not put Faraday's cage on classrooms to block signals?
He's also let himself go pretty seriously from the photos the
media are using!
Do you want know what’s wrong with this country?
I mean what’s really WRONG with this country?
A senior civil servant holding high office at the heart of government called…Olly.
Olly?
OLLY?
For God’s sake…😡
This would never have been allowed in my day.
😤
Do you know, I thought that straight away!

BREAKING: Pressure came from No10 private office Sir Olly Robbins says in evidence to Parliament's Foreign Affairs Committee on Mandelson's appointment
My photo shows a Paleo-Babylonian clay tablet inscribed with cuneiform text, still partially enclosed in its original clay envelope. The clay is pale orangey-brown in colour displayed against a grey display case background. The outer envelope has been broken open, revealing the inner tablet beneath. Both surfaces are covered with densely packed wedge-shaped characters, which record a contract for the sale of a house purchased by Mannum-balu-Samas at the price of 1/3 shekel and 15 grains of silver. This is followed by the names of the numerous witnesses including the mayor Sin-magir and the courier Apil-ilisu. The same text is repeated on the envelope in the event of a dispute, which was broken to inspect the internal document. It is dated 32nd year of Hammurabl's reign, 10th month, c. 1750 BC. The clay envelope measures 87 mm (height) × 55 mm (width), while the inner tablet measures 64 mm (height) × 43 mm (width). On display at the Museum of Antiquity in Turin. Collection number MAT 740.
A 3,750 year-old contract for the sale of a house recorded on a clay tablet, still in its original clay envelope!
