@zarahussain999@adamboultonTABB Yes, that’s correct, it is both bad manners and soulless to speak ill of the dead on the day of their death, this is the custom of the land of England and has been for many centuries
@PolitlcsUK They know capital punishment is going to be reinstated with majority public support soon, announcing this meaningless gesture now is simply an establishment attempt to grasp control of the narrative
@kunley_drukpa Erm, I don’t think this is a very good idea (to put it mildly), unless you want your internet prank go viral because it’s turned into a snuff movie I suppose
@Sargon_of_Akkad The reputation of Mancunians in Britain is about to be destroyed for at least two generations…by a scouser. Internecine Northern feud 5D chess going on here Carl, trust me

En passant, unquestionably one of the most inexplicable phenomena I’ve ever encountered is the obsession with Moz amongst Mexicans. Who would have thought a bloke in a hearing aid waving gladioli and singing about Rushholme would do it for them 🤔
@Harry_pitt@mehdirhasan It’s a bit difficult to ‘think about’ or otherwise evaluate the wisdom of taking an action at a time point two centuries prior to our births Mehdi
@kunley_drukpa I’ve always wanted my very own terminal speaker of a critically endangered language, please can I have a member of the Arho group of the Melanesian Kanak people
@heskelbalas@peterrhague You’re describing the lion vs fox archetypes in Pareto’s circulation of elites view of cyclical history. History shows that the fox/priest types always take over when the civilisation building lion/warriors become indolent and decadent
@simon__roberts I often reflect on where my life would be if I spent less time filling my brain with information that is only useful in en passant exchanges on line
@kunley_drukpa I am a member of the Lykov family Old Believer sect who has been living in the Siberian wilderness since Stalin’s purges. As I have no immunity of any kind to common diseases, remote working as a troll might be an ideal career opportunity for me. Am I eligible to apply thanks 🙏
@HistoryBro1 ‘Maj. Dade leaves the worst to the last, Col. Starmer. You lost the honour of the men of England. You disgraced us sir! You shamed us sir! You will answer ’
@Sargon_of_Akkad Reform are about to implode. They have zero character, zero sincere beliefs and zero loyalty to each other, they will turn on each other like rats in a sack when the going gets tough, which will be imminently
@HistoryBro1 Read this few years ago, and the main concern of the communist founders of the GDR like Walter Ulbricht etc. was genuinely how they were going to cope with the fact that the whole of Europe would want to come and live there. Never assume malice where stupidity would explain
@HistoryBro1 The Prof had another one, apparently from a British infantryman, with similar injuries but the skull also had the yaws of tertiary syphilis
@HistoryBro1 This was another one, apparently from Napoleon’s Heavy Cavalry, multiple sabre cuts to the skull, one penetrating the sagittal suture into the cranial cavity. I guess he must have fallen off his mount and been cut down from above by British cavalry sabres
