In the early 1990s I was a cameraman at ITN, and worked on one of the major of D-Day. I was filming in a café in Normandy with a group of British veterans, when one of them took me by the arm and said “Don’t ever let anybody tell you that the Holocaust never happened. I was one of those that… 1/2
@mrjamesob.bsky.social I know it’s not logical, but the world of football came up with their own resolution of the pronunciation issue: eg Paris Saint-Germain and Ajax are pronounced in the ‘local’ way. Madrid, both Milans, Barcelona and Bayern Munich are not. No one ever pronounces the J in Ajax. 👍

@mrjamesob.bsky.social The ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas is the same agreement Biden proposed late summer of ‘24.
Both Hamas and Israel initially agreed to it.
Then Trump called Bibi and told him to NOT agree because it would help Trump and hurt Biden's reelection chances.

@rachelreevesmp I doubt you’re on BlueSky, but I have suggestions to help get us out of the Tory created fiscal hole.
1. Introduce the Neil Kinnock ‘Wealth Tax’. 2% on assets over £10m.
2. Increase the tax threshold and reduce the 20% tax rate to 19 or 18%%.

Can you imagine that awful Tory mayoral candidate (Susan something?) coming up with a plan like this? No, me neither.

These ‘tariffs’ that Trump keeps saying other countries have been imposing on the US for decades, are actually trade deficits.
He doesn’t know the difference between trade deficits and tariffs.

A friend drove two hours today for her breast cancer chemotherapy only to learn it was canceled due to NIH cuts. Clinical trial ended midstream. No treatment, no restart, no plan, no information. Her bro-in-law's chemo was also canceled.

Re your interview with Dr Aron D'Souza.
You know you can ask a supplementary follow-up question, right? You gave this highly dubious character a ridiculously easy ride.
His arguments were so weak, that he left the door open for you, but you failed to take advantage. Doping is boring.

He couldn’t even run a charity without breaking the law—Now he believes he’s in charge of the Supreme Court, Congress, our rights, and the U.S. justice system. Who’s going to stop him?!

@meidastouch.com guys, it’s not ‘Macrone’ it’s ‘Macron’ with a silent ‘n’.
No one has ever heard him being called Macrone before. The French pronunciation is widely used in Europe and the rest of the world.
