'The Hand That Signed The Paper', by Dylan Thomas.

This is a very powerful poem, and I think it speaks for itself.
This was #PoemOfTheDay no 99/365 which I uploaded to social media in 2016/17

I've got the mother of all chest/throat infections, and the antibiotics haven't kicked in yet. My singing voice is gone, and my speaking voice sounds like this infamous scene😱🙄

PS - if you haven't seen the movie, don't bother - it's💩

It's not a grassroots working class movement.

"Wherever we looked for prominent flaggers and leaders of this movement, we found people smugglers and sex doll salesmen, people with dubious criminal pasts and people willing to put in a good word for Adolf Hitler."

Nigel Farage says this summer’s movement was led by ‘ordinary people’ expressing their patriotism. That’s not what we found

I became a mathematician by accident, because my school wouldn't let me combine my favourite subjects, History and Chemistry, at A level.

Quite recently someone asked me "why history and chemistry - they don't seem connected?"

My answer was "think of Guy Fawkes!"😈

Absolutely insane.

Labour would have purged and smeared someone like Zohran Mamdani.

Wes Streeting's politics align far more closely with Andrew Cuomo.

The lessons from Mamdani are about how to defeat both the right - and the bankrupt "centre".

Why is Rachel Reeves panicking?

Apart from anything else, she's out of her depth.

The government spends £2.7 BILLION a year on TAX BREAKS for oil and gas companies

Those companies pay billions to their shareholders

And then lay off their workers

Think that's unfair?

Tell Rachel Reeves to stop propping up oil and gas companies and back workers instead…

This is over an hour, but well-worth watching, as Andrew Lownie explains the background to and context of all of the scandals involving the former Yorks.

They were all part of a breathtaking and much wider web of corruption and worse

In the Church calendar, we are in the midst of Allhallowtide which encompasses All Hallows Eve (Halloween). All Hallows (All Saints' Day), November 1st, All Souls' Day November 2nd, plus other observances.

But I feel there is something missing:
I feel this would fill the gap😻

Perils of private clinics

Use unqualified and poorly trained staff for baby scans

Pregnant women incorrectly told that babies are malformed, must be aborted.

Failing to spot problems in pregnancy.

Anybody can call themselves a sonographer.

Profits and deregulation cause tragedies.
Warning over dangerous high street baby scans
Some high-street clinics are risking lives by letting untrained staff do baby scans, warn experts.

"Mr Andrew MountAnything Sandringham" ... always read the small print in Mr Rowson's cartoons😈

Persnally, I think the Royals will come to regret the decision to append the name "Mountbatten" to the lesser Royals. Philip was actually Glücksburg, but renounced that for political reasons.
