Best choice ever. We have been eating Geta's for years! Delicious.

Used to follow you on twitter but left that platform. Started bluesky follows slowly. When I saw your name yesterday I remembered enjoying your posts so hit follow.

I have resigned from the party and am so disgusted. I used to put in so much work doing things like canvassing, leafletting, polling station work, get out the vote tasks etc etc. I am deeply ashamed.

I tore up my membership card a few months ago. I have campaigned for Labour for 40 years and done lots of work in between elections and on election days. I am in despair at what the party has become. I feel bereft. My children, now adult, were all members and have all now left, too.

Congratulations. I know how hard you must work for it every day. My beautiful brother achieved sobriety after 35 years. I am so proud of him. Sadly, I lost him unexpectedly three years ago but my pride shines strong.

Hurray. I have been furious about this for years. It extends the reach of the right wing press.

I got so close to leaving over the benefits cuts but thought I would give them one more chance. I have now left in despair at the lack of opposition to the racism and a failure to defend immigrants and asylum seekers.

Absolutely. I resigned my labour membership yesterday in despair.

In our house they are known as Healeys, in honour of Dennis. My husband now has his own collection as four became forty.

And my lovely mum, who is 89 today. She is a reminder that every one of us is special, even if we have never composed great music, wrote wonderful novels, or painted beautiful pictures. It is enough to move through the world with kindness and grace.

We had a parent each, followed by pancakes and dinner in the evening. Total cost less than 500 quid. Forty years and still going strong.

A currency. Commonly found in many ancient societies in SSA. The time taken to knock the hole is the labour value of the currency

That privilege costs money amd contributes to the US balance of payments. Unbelievably short sighted!

Covid kept many away artificially depressing numbers

My 88 year old Irish mother moved to London at age 18. She struggled to find a room to rent and tells her grandchildren of those signs. It is her living memory and lived experience. For those who want to know, she trained as a nurse and devoted her working years to the NHS.
