A screenshot of black text on a white background. The text says: 10 symptoms of woke mind virus: 1 You read books and don’t burn them. 2 you embrace science 3 you are willing to change your mind when new information becomes available. 4 you understand that most issues aren’t black and white 5 you believe in true equality for all people. 6 you like to share 7 you embrace cooperation 8 you respect others rights 8 you believe culture and the arts has value 10 you care for the planet and all of its life.

Louder for people at the back!

This is not the behaviour of someone who considers themselves to be a temporary resident.

We have free speech and we have a lot to say which he is not going to like very much.

Brexiteers calling Remainers Remoaners has always been ridiculous to me. The Brexiteers moan more than anyone. They moan about people from overseas and they moan about all the jobs foreigners apparently take and the GP appointments which foreigners apparently steal. Moan moan moan. It is constant.

Reform has lost 11 councillors and 2 MPs in a matter of months… and when I say ‘lost’ I mean, they’ve quit following rows, impropriety or inability to do their jobs.
So, if Brexit weren’t proof enough, then this barrelling shitshow should confirm forever that they should be nowhere near govt.

The World's Best Cities

London has been ranked the world’s #1 city for 2025—for the 10th year in a row.

This recognition speaks to the strength and vibrancy of our capital. From our cultural institutions to our nightlife, London remains a place for everyone.

Conventional medicine is amazing and has saved so many lives. However I think we reach out for it too often and that causes us harm. If I needed conventional medicine in order to stay alive, of course I would take it but I also think we need to get back to the basics of good nutrition as well.

👇🏻‼️

Now I seem to recall someone saying that if there was a war in Europe, we were on our own.

Surely, that should work both ways.

Stephen King’s Truth

I’m so confused right now. If a POTUS gives the military an order which is illegal because it is without the consent of congress, why would the military take the illegal action? Does it serve the POTUS or the US constitution? I can’t understand how there is scope for this within a democratic system.

I know a woman who uses ‘woke’ as an insult constantly. Multiple times a day. Once I asked her what woke means.

Her answer: ‘It means stupid. It means you are stupid’.

I have been explaining this to my Christian mother for years. She still quotes fire and brimstone at me 🙄.

I have spent a lot of time in India. They are far from ‘spit and ramshackle parts’. It is a diverse and varied country. The media tend to only show one extreme.
This is one company who have cut huge corners with devastating results. There are many Indian airlines which do not cut corners.

I also think he is attempting to appear ruthless and powerful while actually doing nothing. His supporters will quote what he said and forget what he did or didn’t actually do.

Exactly. Christianity is born of Christology, the study of the life of Christ. Anyone who calls themselves a Christian and then quotes the Old Testament, is wrong on every possible level.

Is he literally trying to kill everyone?

I think we have stepped up our financial contributions in order to fill the hole left by the reduction in the contribution from the US but other than that, not much has changed for us. We have always been there, doing the work. It is just that previously the US were doing it with us.

Is this the same Mark Carney who, while Director of the Bank of England, foretold the disaster of Brexit and was ridiculed by successive Tory prime ministers and other top Conservatives, who implied he was part of Project Fear.

In fact, he could see what was/is happening and made the right call.

Agreed. A BBC news article described Starmer as ‘falling to his knees’ 🙄.
He just crouched to picked up some dropped papers. The drama around this tiny episode is laughable.

I use to give very small amounts of cod liver oil to my cat who had joint pain. It helped a lot. I would just pierce a supplement for humans and squirt about an 8th of it on her food. I didn’t take professional advice though so maybe check with a professional to make sure it is safe if you try it.

I am not a Londoner (so I don’t think my opinion really matters very much) but I am there frequently and I think this is long overdue.

Elderly confused man drops paper. Younger guy kindly picks them up.

What a beautiful message at such a tragic time.

😆

Celebrating diversity is a British value

The news from India is deeply distressing. My thoughts are with the family & friends of those on board the Air India flight—I can only imagine how devastating this must be.

I’m in close contact with the Government & Indian High Commission. More information from Air India:

This is heart breaking and awful to watch.
