What has the ECHR ever done for us?

Quite a lot actually, and we wrote it too.

[Peter Stefanovic @PeterStefanovi2]

To rapturous applause Prime Minister @RishiSunak just threatened to join Russia & Belarus as the only European countries outside the ECHR - and even more shocking - not a single journalist present thought it worthy of question or challenge

If that outrages you RT this widely

I've signed.

Rishi Sunak said this week that "nobody wants a general election".

Well it seems that more than 110,000 people do so far.

Every single word Andrew says is factual and he expresses the sense of despair so many of us on the frontline feel…

I don’t like this sort of politics. Societies are made up of individuals with different backgrounds, opinions, economic interests and moral and philosophical positions. The primary job of politicians in my view is to at least try to navigate these differences (guided of course by their own hopefully well-thought out political philosophy) with the aim of building a stable consensus - a necessary foundation for a well-functioning and prosperous society. That’s very hard of course, but it should be the desired destination. Nobody gets everything they want in a democracy, because a free society is a collection of individuals who hold different views, but also nobody should feel absolutely defeated. This is not compromise in a wish-washy sense of the word - it’s the very essence of and indeed the guarantor of our freedom as individuals. As Feynman memorably said, democracy is based, like science, on a satisfactory philosophy of ignorance; running societies is very hard, and nobody really knows how to do it, so we regularly change direction whilst building on the achievements of the past. Understanding this requires humility, and the instinct to unify rather than to divide. Seeking division therefore runs counter to everyone’s interests because it undermines a key idea underpinning democracy itself - the idea that individuals have legitimately differing views. To Mr Sunak - topically - I would say read some post-war Oppenheimer. He was aiming to persuade national leaders not to do what this article says you want to do, because in the context of countries with atom bombs, that would be literally playing with fire.

Love this from Ben Elton on the BBC…

More of this please.

When the UK’s PM @rishisunak refuses to hold the super-wealthy accountable, it leads to a healthcare system like the one we have in the US. Or even the system in the time of Charles Dickens.
Sunak should just #TaxTheRich or change his slogan to "Make the UK Sick Again."

Pale Blue Dot is a photo of Earth that was taken by the Voyager 1 space probe in 1990 from a distance of about 6 billion kilometers (3.7 billion miles) as it was leaving our solar system. This is what Carl Sagan said about the photo:

"Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it, everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor, and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every 'superstar,' every 'supreme leader,' every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there — on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

The Earth is the only world known so far to harbor life. There is nowhere else, at least in the near future, to which our species could migrate. Visit, yes. Settle, not yet. Like it or not, for the moment the Earth is where we make our stand. It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known.”

@BroadmoorLane has anyone seen two ducks wandering around near the orchard any time today? Ours have escaped and would be grateful to know of any sightings… thank you 😊

What’s astonishing is the sheer, crass stupidity and avarice. You go on a zoom ask for 10k a day(not sure about whether in $ or £), and don’t even bother to check whether company is for real or not.
