Sorry but that is a sweeping generalisation. The SWP locally has been a driving force for the anti-racist movement and fighting fracking. Without them often nothing gets done!

So many complex issues to overcome. The left needs to get their act together and act in unity and solidarity. Bigotry has no place on the left.

They always trot that out! Sweeping generalisation about every member of the SWP. Your experience of members of the SWP is vastly different to mine. If SWP members are brilliant at campaigning with fighting fracking locally. Using their time and energy making banners and getting people together.

All well and good if you can afford a decent dehumidifier. Some people can barely afford to feed and cloth themselves and their families. That's even when they are working :-(

Also more likely to give harsher sentences if they are hungry! They are more likely to have class or racial bias. 🤷

So what do you suggest we do if we live in a wet climate? Where do you suggest the poorest households dry their washing?

That would be enough to cause a horse to worry 😜 You probably know about as much as many equestrians! So much anthropomorphism and cognitive dissonance/bias abounds in the traditional equestrian world. As you have probably gathered I have severed myself from it for the most part.It's grim for horses

They blink more when they are stressed. A relaxed horse has floppier ears and bottom lip, with a relaxed eye. A triangular eye with worry lines is a sign of worry, if the whites are showing they are scared. Hope that helps 😃

It's a worried face. Pinched nostrils, tight jaw, upper lip more prominent than lower lip. Ears orientated in different directions, so conflicted about attention. Not super scared but more concerned.

It's the tannins that cause the issue. Some horses avoid them and some get a taste for them, that's a problem. They can be a problem for sheep and cattle too.
