When I was 17 I got myself into trouble trying to withdraw more than I had from the bank. I pretended my mum had sent a cheque. They wrote to her. I intercepted the letter and replied ‘for her’. They replied, I replied... Every lie grew another. I ended up looking like this 👇

I think I've been spotted!

Stunning photo. Rare to see a shot of a curlew in flight. Great work!

Great news from America. It’s always wonderful when the bully gets his comeuppance.

I don’t understand anti semitism. Never have. But I cannot accept that a genuine humanitarian like Jeremy Corbyn is guilty of such a revolting conviction. He is one of life’s good guys. An idealist - and there is no place for hate in idealism.

I often think the members of the Tory Government as personifications of various evils: envy, ambition, egotism, anger, prejudice, paranoia, cold-heartedness, sloth, arrogance, etc etc.
A good way of getting to sleep is to try to tag each minister with each transgression.

"Where reason gives us least assistance, emotion comes to our rescue and guides us. The astronomer may tell us something about the moon, but so too does the poet. The astronomer's moon is everybody's moon; the poet's is very much his own and not everyone can share it."~C.R.Milne

So angry after the ‘debate’ - well done to the furious MPs from the opposition benches - I dug out my go-to album from the Thatcher years: Tom Robinson’s ‘Power in the Darkness.’
It helped. There was fury then, despair then, but it ended. Hope/love always wins.

Shame on you reactionary, poverty promoting, child hunger denying Tories! Shame on every MP who stood up and refused to admit the role of the state in the welfare of its children. And shame on anyone who will vote for this victorian values loving bunch of rouges

[Colin Wales @ColinWales1]

Watching the House of Commons Free School Meals Debate has been a frightening experience. As the debate has progressed a collection of the most appalling conservative MPs have advanced the shameful view that childhood hunger is an exaggeration and charity should replace welfare!
