Seeing lots of celebration of the #EntenteCordiale reaching 120 years, but you’ll never beat the Auld Alliance - dating back to 1295 - which lives on in the form of a Scottish pub in the centre of Paris 🏴 🤝 🇫🇷
It doesn't work like that. The legal profession wants to make money nitpicking every individual case on the off chance of finding one or two corrupt post-officers. The government will always back down from “interfering” with corrupt legal practices because it is cowardly.
@TribesBritannia All convictions should be overturned immediately. This is a disgrace and has ruined the Post Office’s reputation. The people involved with this scandal need to be prosecuted and Fujitsu needs to step up and be made to pay compensation
Being struck off has been weaponised
to keep doctors in line and stop whistleblowers. Minor errors are punished with brutality that would make Ghengis Khan blush and he wasn't in a caring profession!
Got sad news today. After 7 years of medical training, my good friend has been struck off after one minor indiscretion. He slept with one of his patients & now can no longer work in the job he loves. What a waste of time, training & money. A genuinely nice guy, and a great vet.
@thepupmommy@TweeetsOfDogs I have lost five dogs to weakness in their hind legs and some dementia where they did not know where they were. A dog fed on dry dog food is malnourished, so I will feed my next dog with mackerel, cooked chicken, and red meat scraps once a day in the evening until sated.
To the writer of this post, I have lost six dogs in 12 yrs, some to cancer.
When I have had to make the decision to euthanize, I ask myself three questions: is my dog in pain, what is its quality of life, and what will my dog have to endure for me to keep it alive.
Always remember that when it comes to making the decision to euthanize, that it is NOT about you, it's about your dog and what's best for him/her. And that's what makes it so hard, because we don't want to let go.
Czarina was my rock for 12 yrs, 3 mons. She was always by my side. She was left incontinent from the effects of IVDD, but her 5 senses were intact and I rationalized I could help her, bathing and cleaning her.
Until I took this video of her struggling to reach me and I broke down, asking myself, "what have I done." She died in my arms the next day with the dignity she deserved.
It is similar to the US who were busy selling military equipment to help the Nazis kill British and Allied soldiers for the first two years of the war until Pear Harbour forced them to give up lucrative contracts. Without a scruple in sight the US ripped off the UK.
God save the King is not the English national anthem - only an idiot like Nick and millions of English think it. FYI, God Save the King is the British National anthem.
What sense does it make for England's anthem to be "God Save the King" when that is an invitation for the Tartan Army to boo in order to demonstrate that they are loyal to Scotland ?
@Phoenix05995899@anno1540 Remember how a stray missile hit the only significant and visible target in Poland and how quickly the US moved in to cover over the evidence? Putin is laughing at Biden’s weakness and cowardly response to Article 5. Why is the US the boss of NATO anyway?
It all went wrong when inadequate primal man discovered their role in reproduction 5000 years ago. However, it took 2500 years to start wresting matriarchal power that served our species well, away for the benefit of stupid men equipped with only two evolutionary instincts.
@ziggy6769 Remember, the main reason the SNP took power was the inaction of the Labour Party, which assumed that sons would vote the same as their fathers and fathers’ fathers. My grandfather, a friend of Keir Hardy, will be turning in his grave!
@TelePolitics No bad thing if universities go bust. They stifle creativity and churn out graduates moulded to think the same. They should be disbanded because they have been a disaster for society and our planet.
@europaendlos@trussliz It would have been easier to grant tariff-free exports to Australia under Most Favoured Nation in the WTO’s rule book, where the country has to reciprocate with all other members. Clearing all tariffs globally is a good thing and reverses the economic decline in all countries.
There are dozens of Scottish accents. Most non-Scots do not understand that. My accent is often confused with an Irish one, so this xenophobic woman should wise up. The problem is hers - not how we speak.
Dominic Cummings won the last election for the Conservatives, with the dim-witted Boris taking the credit. A gerbil with a blue rosette would have won. After Boris sacked him on the advice of others, he went downhill, so @PennyMordaunt should declare DC as her advisor today.
Harry Stanley was a white Scot carrying a table leg in a plastic bag as he staggered home from the pub, and the Met police shot him dead in 1999. The Met was informed he was Irish because of his accent, so killing him when he had no access to the trigger if it was a gun was OK!?
The Scottish Government has developed a new strategy to value beavers 🦫 and work with stakeholders to ensure their survival. @NicolaSturgeon still allows farmers to cull them rather than send them to other parts of the UK where they are genuinely valued. Beavercide at scale.
