My children "did their best" too, making me a cake in a mug last mother's day.

We all know who's calling the shots. The question is why.
Money? Kompromat? Strategy?
Empires dividing the spoils?

In strong need of some peace and stillness.

Lumumba was one of the most powerful voices in Africa's anti colonial movement at the time.
This tooth (kept as a trophy) was all that remained of him after he was murdered and his remains dissolved in acid.
This is what the west did to those threatening its hegemony.
Not sure that much has changed.

To be honest I thought giving its alumni a sense of privilege, entitlement and omniscience was the whole point of Eton.

This one - from Gov Bob Ferguson to Pam Bondi- equally worthy of praise.

Israel is acting like a rogue state.
The IDF like a rogue militia.
And on and on this goes.
Whilst the UK can't even bring itself to call it what it is.
And criminalised those protesting this depravity.

The UK's policy when it comes to Israel completely thrashing IHRL, the Geneva convention and any rudimentary standards of human decency.

Maybe even Yvette Cooper and David Lammy (when it no longer threatens to harm their career prospects).
