A college economics professor stated that he had once failed an entire class. That class insisted that socialism is functional and that no one should be poor and no one rich, that everyone is equal...

The teacher told them, "OK, we will do an experiment on socialism in this group.

All grades will be averaged, and everyone will get the same grade, so no one will fail and no one will get a 10."

After the first test, the grades were added up and divided by the number of students, and everyone got an 8.

The students who studied intensively were upset, but those who studied less were overjoyed.

As the second test approached, the students who had studied a little learned even less, and those who had studied more intensively told themselves that they also wanted a "handout", so they also studied less.

The average of the second test was 6.

When the third test was given, the average score was 4. To the great surprise of all the students, they all failed.

The teacher told them that socialism will eventually fail because when half the population sees that they cannot work, because the other half will take care of them, and when the half that worked realizes that there is no point in working anymore, because others are the beneficiaries of their labor, then that is the end of any nation
The story may be a fable not a fact but the moral is real
Get it?

Is it possible to film a halal killing so that we can all see what it's like ?

Then we could know exactly what's involved and make our minds up about whether it should be allowed in this country

The "Good" towels...reserved for "company". When My mom died, at 84 years old, we went through the closets and drawers. Over a dozen of towels like these, never used even once. We NEVER had overnight guests in our house, she saved those towels from decades, for company that never stayed the night. USE the GOOD TOWELS! WEAR THE FANCY DRESS! SPRAY that expensive perfume on yourself, even if you are going to the grocery store! Our days are numbered in this planet....what are we saving this stuff for?

[George Foulkes @GeorgeFoulkes]

Along with Donald Dewar, John P Mackintosh & Jim Boyack I campaigned for a Scottish Parliament but I am deeply disappointed by the reality we now have because SNP have used it to campaign for Independence instead of making it work for our people, A review is now needed ASAP

LETS MAKE Ryley FAMOUS ❤️❤️

Nobody moved. So he did. ❤️❤️

Last Tuesday afternoon at a canal near a busy walking path, a toddler slipped through a gap in a railing and hit the water.

Adults froze. Seconds passed.

Then Ryley — 15 years old — took off his shoes and jumped in.

The water was deep. The child was too small to keep their head up. Ryley reached the toddler, got underneath them, and pushed the child's face above the surface. No flotation device. No lifeguard vest. Just a teenager using his own body as a raft.

He held that position — arms raised, treading water — until emergency responders arrived and lifted the child to safety.

Witnesses said he moved before most people had even processed what was happening.

Ryley went home that same evening. No press conference. No ceremony. He reportedly told his mum it "wasn't a big deal."

The toddler is safe. Recovering. Going home to their family.

And somewhere out there, a 15-year-old kid is probably back in school right now — sitting in class, doing homework — completely unaware that the world needs to know his name.

His name is Ryley 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👌🏾🙏🏾

Imagine hiding your real name, then winning an election and your first instinct is to behave like a child in the Commons.

Make her pay back every penny.

An unelected PM throws money at expanding selection in schools with no mandate for it. And we wonder why people are fed up with Westminster. https://t.co/IzJjNU1jen

[Peter Heaton-Jones @PHeatonJones]

Utterly disgraceful & disrespectful behaviour from the new SNP MP for Arbroath & Broughty Ferry. She added a preamble to the loyal oath indicating she didn’t accept it, then read the actual words holding up crossed fingers, presumably to signify she didn’t believe it. Awful.

[Cristo @cristo_radio]

This picture has just filled me with fury

All of them so smug. So happy that the countless incompetent terrible decisions they've made- making each one of them undeserving of high office- can continue for longer.

They look so happy. Meanwhile I am utterly enraged.

I’m in London and getting Amber weather warnings. Considering that most residents of London are from Pakistan, Afghanistan or Somalia, I’ve just looked up the weather in those places and it’s 33, 29 and 28 degrees centigrade. It’s only 22 degrees here, so I don’t think we need more warnings thank you. Well, not about the weather anyway.
