@EdwdPrice @EoinI3s In Ireland they have multi-member electorates, so you vote for people not parties, as well as more proportional results.

Mounting expedition to reach flavour-starved UK where millions survive only on boiled food. If I make it past the airport checkpoints, I hope to meet the brave African expatriates helping the country emerge from international isolation, and find inspiring local stories of hope.

#AnneFrank was born #OnThisDay in 1929.

She died almost 16 years later, alongside her sister Margot, in Bergen-Belsen Concentration Camp.

Today we honour the memory of Anne, whose diary has taught millions of people around the world about the Holocaust.

If they made Raiders of the Lost Ark today, they'd probably cram it with woke anti-Nazi propaganda, put in a feisty woman who can outdrink men twice her size, and make the hero keep failing and scared of snakes or some shit, ugh
