Retired and very happy
So, the BBC have decided to isolate the country even more by depriving their expats, the joy of access to British radio in the name of “copyright infringement” How progressive!

Haha!
Less than 24 hours after the European Parliament voted to ban plant-based foods across the EU from using names like “burger,” “sausage” or “steak” — the institution’s canteen in Strasbourg served up a “vegan burger” as its healthy lunch option.
EU Parliament votes to ban veggie burgers — then serves them for lunch
The ink was barely dry on the European Parliament’s prohibition across the bloc when its own chefs dished up “vegan burgers,” leaving lawmakers choking on the irony.

I'm sorry, nine HUNDRED former DOJ lawyers all signed this letter opposing Emil Bove's nomination to be an appellate federal judge?

To watch Sabalenka at Wimbledon. You have to go to iPlayer as the main BBC channels are ignoring her!

Tell me, why is justice in a jury trial decided ONLY by a unanimous decision of 12 people, then why is it not the case with Supreme Court decisions that they have to have unanimous decisions and wouldn’t that avoid obvious partisan votes? 6 people deciding what 300million have to accept is ludicrous

At least they had a warrant

Not even worthy of entertainment classification, this is the result of faux news scooping up a fresh load of their own shit, throwing it high in the sky, having it rain back down on them, then turning around and blaming everyone else for shitting on them.

Zelensky and the Ukrainian security services, have pulled off a massive military success and you had no idea it was happening. The mightily US intelligence machine has been humiliated by a small yet highly significant player in their war with your buddy Putin! You’re all traitors to America

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

I cannot believe that people are shocked with the passing of Pope Francis. He was 88 has had many medical issues for years and he kept himself alive to see the Holy Week done. I said to myself, when I saw him on Sunday - “better call the cardinals” !

Well, it was bound to happen eventually- Trump showing his true colours! Unable to take criticism or to be questioned about his grift, he resorts to rudeness and real disrespect. He’s created a true hero in Zelensky. Finally, he reacts to being told “NO” the USA is being destroyed from within!

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

This is an outstanding idea. I’m a Brit partnered with a New Yorker na born in Virginia and I’ve been saying this for weeks and weeks. The Dem elected Ken Martin as their DNC Chair - what’s he doing? The Dems need to pound the message and Pete is the man to do it. Give him the authority Dems!
You need to do this Pete, and Congress needs to make it happen.

The US The Supreme Court are irredeemable because of their ‘immunity’ decision on POTUS by the republican judges!

If we say that all of the Covert CIA activity in the Bourne movies is ALL fiction - but isn’t, will the spooks take this attack on their organisation from Trump by playing dumb?

The USA main grand slam courts are called Arthur Ashe & Louis Armstrong. Australia - Rod Laver & Margaret Court. Roland Garros - Philippe Chatrier, Suzanne-Lenglen & Simonne-Mathieu.
At Wimbledon - it’s just Centre Court non1 etc - Why not Fred Perry & Virginia Wade?

The access to data by the Chinese government of Tik Toc users, is aimed at the youth, many of whom will be in positions of political and economic influence in their future careers. Do you truly want the Chinese to have that access to their information? Think about it. Not available in China!

That’s it - I’m closing down my Facebook and instagram and threads account. Zuckerberg is a modern day quisling (look him up) and his comments about the Biden administration “shouting at him” is disgraceful. His only concern is PROFIT!
