I love that he's doing this but why's the donation in a shabby folder? Makes it look like he's handing over used banknotes.

Isn't that just a stock image of Farage?

Yep, pretty rich coming from them when you could lay the blame for us being in this mess at their duplicitous time in bed with the Tories. Unforgiveable and unelectable.

I guess Starmer was on there but has slipped out to the right of the frame?

Sad state of affairs everywhere. Like we learned nothing from the last century.

You're completely right. But we had some Irish folk move in near us. When we said how much we loved Dublin they launched into a tale of how they hated it and how it was ruined by 'foreigners' Sadly i didn't think they meant the American tourists. Knobs gonna knob wherever.

Did you see that Jon has launched a very worthy petition - www.jon4highpeak.com/petition-sto... It'd be great for people to support this and comment about how stopping genocide would be more a thing he should focus on.
Petition: Stop Selling Disposable BBQs
Please sign this petition if you want to protect our local environment and stop retailers in High Peak selling disposable BBQs this summer.

I heard a rumour that his mother was a nurse and his father was a toolmaker. Not sure who said it.

“Clinched“ doing some lifting there. Red Tories inked a deal that the Blue Tories negotiated. Adding less than 0.2% to GDP whilst propping up another regime with an alleged corrupt politician at its head. I'd sooner see free trade with China.

One part indicative of the modern obsession with disposable junk, the other some garden chairs.

It was, of course, Thatcher's mob who got rid of MMB and allowed supermarkets to contract with huge dairy businesses like Arla to hammer the cost down and the quality.

'fraid not. Agricultural Marketing Act 1933 established the Milk Marketing Board who were the central purchasing body for milk sold by milk men from the 1940s up to the 1990s. Same milk wherever you were (in England at least, accept you might be from a more civilised part of the realm).

Just to add, I'm not anti-green. But as a 18 year old who was woken up by these noisy milk monsters every hangover day, I bear a grudge.

Can't argue with you there. Except the milk in your glass bottles came from the same dairies that the supermarkets get it from now. If you pop down to the local farm and milk a cow with your pail then you'd have a point. Most of the rest of Europe uses card and recyles. Just the UK that is stupid.

Ok if you ignore that those were lead acid battery vehicles with a limited lifespan requiring some serious recharging; cost and effort involved in sterilising glass bottles every day; the need for hundreds of local delivery sites. All for a greener option but maybe cardboard/supermarket is it?

So far down the centrist rabbit hole you can no longer see the daylight. Like the rivers you mention - just full of shit. If people like you had any real principles then we would have had a real socialist government in 2019 and wouldn't have suffered another 5 years.
