@Tree_Folklore Holly is a dioecious tree meaning that there are males and females. The berries appear on the female. Which is why the females are usually much smaller, they get pruned for Holly wreaths etc. old holly trees have spikeless leaves.
“Why would they then continue to be enthusiasts for the very thing that’s blocking their consumers from getting the things they need?”
For the first time Wee bitter Jimbo has asked the right question.
So why are you continuing to enthusiastically support Brexit Jim?
This idiot thinks the @allianceparty are to blame for the NIP & the WF, when in fact the knee jerk sectarianism, short sighted policies and crass stupidity of the DUP caused the whole mess and ensured that the People of NI have no future as part of the failing U.K.
As someone who would buy from Amazon frequently I have noticed in the last few weeks when I attempt to buy things it states they don’t deliver to NI and the searches send me to purchase from Dublin at twice the cost!! Well dove @allianceparty so much for best of both worlds
Five quick reforms the NHS urgently needs https://t.co/vaYYt1u0OZ If the NHS needs reform start with the easy things that will radically improve morale.
Why has Rachel Reeves called in bankers to advise on the NHS? https://t.co/9lLxQZWhAx Rachel Reeves must think the only job a government has is to balance its books. There can be no other explanation for the insanity of calling in bankers to advise on the NHS.
The next crash could be much bigger than the last two https://t.co/HLJn538tie The extreme financialisation of the economy must be approaching the point where it is no longer sustainable. When that happens the crash will be of a wholly different scale to 2008, or 2020.
@donnarainey4 Now you mention it, last month I found a pear and pear blossoms on the same twig. Spring and autumn happening simultaneously, how scary is that? Sadly I was busy and completely forgot to go back and photograph it.
@RichardJMurphy When I read this, I automatically assumed benefit fraud! Which goes to show how the dysfunctional narrative of claimant blaming has permeated even my consciousness!
Well done Andrew. Now why not establish cross compliance between the planning department, the roads department and your own department. So that everyone complies with the rules around the removal of hedgerows?
@normanelliottuk@RichardJMurphy I always understood that the measure of wealth was the amount of debt one carried! By that logic farmers are incredibly wealthy. I’ve yet to meet a farming family who hasn’t got at least one high end car.
Do the people who work in the City of London add value? https://t.co/A9ZBORat0K The City of London claims it is the powerhouse of the UK economy. Rachel Reeves has called it our ‘Jewel in the Crown’. But actually, it’s much more like a parasite, extracting value from the rest of the economy to for the advantage of a few at cost to most in this country.
I reposted this a while ago and I’ve been thinking about it since. There are degrees of disability, some that hardly impact quality of life at all some that are devastating and include chronic severe pain. Some might justify A.D. many will not.
A mostly nondisabled friend looked at me the other day and said "I'm not sure how I feel about assisted dying but it's interesting that if anyone else is suicidal we do everything to stop them but if they're disabled we want to help them"
yeah, I can't stop thinking about that
