Le 13 novembre 2015, Paris était frappée en plein cœur.
Des vies furent violemment fauchées à la terrasse des cafés, dans une salle de concert, dans l’insouciance d’une soirée ordinaire.
Dix ans plus tard, la France se recueille.
Nous nous recueillons avec elle.

Anyone recommend a French Tutor in the midlands for an adult learner who want to be able to actually talk with people while in France rather than the basic platitudes?

Anything to do with recent polls showing the Greens beating Labour I wonder?
I'm not complaining, I would rather they be pushed left than continue to be Temu Reform.
Maybe they could try stopping persecuting the disabled, trans people and immigrants next.

Weird that the Indie is able to defend the BBCs accurate reporting on Trump and pro-Israel bias but when it comes to their clear anti-trans bias crickets - even though it is mentioned in the article.

I see the Guardian now thinks it has the final word on Vegan Sausages. Trashing the meaty tasting ones as processed.
Dude, they are all super processed - they are sausages made out of non-meat products. What did you expect?
And sorry the squishy ones plan ones you like, taste awful.

Will our survey of supermarket meatless sausages reveal hearty but healthy veggie bangers or rubbery tubes mechanically stuffed with joyless compost?

I’ve seen on the media how pundits amusingly refer to Zack Polanski as if entirely propped up by social media & youngsters’ ‘vibes’ but to this middle aged women (who has no TikTok account) he seems the most serious political leader in sight talking about real issues with conviction and directness 🤷🏻♀️

A for profit company inherently needs to earn more money than a public one becuase it needs to pay (very large amounts) to it's shareholders. A public company doesn't, so it costs less to run.
We pay for them either way. I'd rather the one where my money pays for the water, not the shareholders.

Duncan almost every other country in the world has nationalised water and many of them have far less shit in their rivers. Most of our private energy companies are literally other countries state run companies. Privatisation of national monopolies has patently been a disaster.

Join the Greens the if you want progressive left. The husk that is the Blue Labour Party has not a single progressive viewpoint and is running itself into the iceberg in an effort to chase voters who will never vote for them with their right wing policies but has convinced itself that it isn't.
Labour need to sort themselves out. Chasing Reform is a fools errand. Good on Plaid Cymru for seeing off Reform and letting Labour know they have to do better. The progressive left and centre need to work together as they represent a majority who don’t want divisive nasty Farage taking power.
