@timfarron.bsky.social Well done Tim, following your success finishing the Tory party with agent Truss you have managed to infiltrate Zack Polanski into the Greens.

Know so many of Tom Lehrer’s wonderful phrases- two of my favourites “He was into animal husbandry until they caught him at it”and “he specialised in diseases of the rich” #TomLehrer

Michael Rosen’s poem:
I lay in bed
hardly able to breathe
but there were people to sedate me,
pump air into me
calm me down when I thrashed around
hold my hand and reassure me
play me songs my family sent in turn me over to help my lungs
shave me, wash me, feed me
check my medication perform
I lay in bed
hardly able to breathe
but there were people to sedate me,
pump air into me
calm me down when I thrashed around
hold my hand and reassure me
play me songs my family sent in turn me over to help my lungs
shave me, wash me, feed me
check my medication perform

@andrewsparrowgdn.bsky.social Look at Transfer pricing. If Bentley sell a car to a Bentley company in New York for £1 they pay 25p tariff. Then they sell the car for $300,000 . Bentley UK then charge Bentley in the US $295k for use of brand - so profit is in the UK. I exaggerate to make the point!
