@j_stapling Read this yesterday and it tipped the balance for me. Adobe subscription cancelled (they offered two free months to stay on) and Affinity installed. (Very) long time PS user so an old dog is learning some new tricks. Thanks.

The EU is giving €10bn in aid to European countries hit by the recent floods. Every such disaster will cost billions. We will spend big on climate, either way. But it's far more effective and humane to spend the money on prevention than on endlessly picking up the pieces.

United Utilities continuously dumped untreated sewage into Lake Windermere for seven days.

218 regulatory violations since 2010, fined £6.6m.

Public picks up the tab for cleaning.

Nothing will change until profit motive is removed.

Nationalise water.

Who are ‘Indigenous British people’? Do they mean the Beaker people who came from Central Europe? The AngloSaxons from Germany, Denmark & the Netherlands? Romans? Vikings? Normans?
There are no ‘Indigenous’ Brits.
We are a mongrel nation built on immigration.
We always have been.

At the Green party we say it like it is.

This is fascism.

Not protests, not pro-British marches. It's fascism.

There is no excusing fascism.

There is no appeasing fascism.

Fascists must be opposed. Always.

Fascism will never win.

I drove east into London on the A40 this afternoon. Light breeze, not too hot. London is always beautiful in the sunshine.

Drove past Uxbridge. No riots, no looters, no cars overturned and ablaze, no sirens.

Drove past Greenford. No riots, no looters, no cars overturned and ablaze, no sirens.

Drove past Acton. No riots, no looters, no cars overturned and ablaze, no sirens.

Parked in Westfield. There is sun, no sign of rain, but the full rainbow of humanity is here indoors.

(They say they want their country back, but they actually want their empire back, the one their grandparents' generation lost. The Empire came home. And here we all are! )

The shop assistants everywhere were from every corner of the earth. The customers the same. Girls and boys, men and women, from every place in the world, peacefully going about their lives on a London Sunday in a cathedral to capitalism in Shepherds Bush.

No shouting. No swearing. No mugging. No knifing. No looting. No burning. Just the world in one city under a giant glass roof in peace.

Sometimes, you don't know how good you actually have it. When London is good, it's really bloody good.

Most places in England are good, most of the time. Most people in England are good, no matter what the forces that seek to divide us want us to believe.

I remember being broke and homeless 20 years ago this year, carrying my possessions in four bags and thanking God for my legs when I was deep in my material nadir.

You already have your country. I already have my country. Both can be true.

I don't want to take your job, unless I'm better at it. I don't want to put shariah in place over your head and in any case, the law in this country is about as close to shariah as I need. Why would I endanger that just to piss you off for some marginal gain? Think about it.

We can get along. We are not enemies. Those grifters are fooling you, scamming you, and they're thick. They think 1+1=Foreigners. Their sums don't add up. They get tax breaks. Do you? Work it out.

We aren't going anywhere and we won't roll over frightened like our parents did. We belong here. We ARE the British Empire. This is the legacy.

It's not us you want your country back from. It's the foreign papers, the con artists who took COVID money, the scum who bought our water, the financial institutions who gambled away our future and made us pay for their next round of bonuses in an endless era of austerity. We didn't freeze old people to death. We didn't make food banks necessary. Cameron and Co did all that. We're just easy targets. A distraction.

This is still a beautiful country. This is still a peaceful country. How about we find away to make it better for all of us:?

Isn't London beautiful in the sunshine?
