An old friend wrote to me with a letter which I received today. I feel flattered that someone bothered to write an actual letter.
I shall respond in kind this weekend.

Hey Richard Smith, get ready for a rollercoaster week ahead.

Fucking hunt.
This is Richard Smith of the South Durham Hunt and he thinks it’s ok to hit a horse over the head. Make this ‘man’ famous.

Cutting 30,000 jobs at the VA, which will put veterans' services at risk.

Firing federal workers across government, many of whom are veterans.

Gutting SNAP & Medicaid, which millions of veterans need.

Our vets defended us, and this is how the Trump regime is repaying them?

The government needs to stand up for a truly independent BBC free from political meddling.

That means sacking Robbie Gibb and ending the political grip on the BBC board.

England homelessness grown by a fifth since 2022, now 300,000.

Successive govts cut local authority funding in real terms, cut real wages/benefits, no curbs on profiteering, lack of social housing.

Cheaper to build social housing than using temporary accommodation.

Misery is a political choice.
Homelessness figures higher than data suggests, research shows
Official data for England underestimates the scale of the problem, according to research for charity Crisis says.

I think all Christmas advertising and Christmas Music should be banned until 30 days before Christmas Day. I am not a Grinch, it just can be too much.

Now 67.5Kg, 2.5kg off my target. Nearly 20kg lost.
It has not been easy even using one of those weight loss drugs, there are a range of downsides. DM me if you are thinking about it. Some advice would have been welcome before I started.

Quick background for those not in the bad place.

A parent filmed some men apparently going in to get English lessons and claimed they were going into a primary school.

In the background of the video was a sign mentioning a school

This video obviously went viral with all the RW outrage.

No one using the community learning centre can access the primary school or nursery.

And the Daily Mail knew this. They mention it twice.

And they went for that shocking headline anyway.

Amazon just announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Farage gets voted down on leaving the ECHR… for now.
Ed Davey quite rightly tears a strip off him.

But really, the corrupt leader of a racist party threatening to remove our protection from abuses of power by our own government, should be the biggest red flag going.
