Everything can be taken from a man but 1 thing; the last of human freedoms - to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way
The loss of the stiff upper lip is one of the most unfortunate things to ever happen to British culture. Now everybody has to emote and whinge and psychologise and diagnose and pathologise and mope. It's entirely unattractive, unhelpful, unhealthy, and unbecoming.
Call to action. 🐾🐶

When Andy Burnham was born, there were 15,644 betting shops.
When he first became an MP there were 8,756 betting shops.
There are now 5,669 betting shops and he wants to tackle their "proliferation".
There's no excuse for this kind of ignorance.
Ignorant twaddle. Coursing - "Few rules and no oversight or regulation." Waterloo Cup 1836, National Coursing Club 1858, Greyhound Stud Book 1882, Irish Coursing Club 1916, Irish Stud Book 1923. Who does the Commercial Director of the GBGB think started greyhound racing?
@mattllaf1981@Stephenh61 Bookmakers now are like going in TG Jones after growing up with decent WH Smiths. Once you were testing £200 Parker pens on Clairefontaine paper and now you’re dodging someone taking a shit in the corner.
Bookmakers are closing because there’s no one in them. Why is there no one in them ? The product is shit. They don’t settle bets properly. Prices are filth. They’re knockers. Treat the staff like shit.. Entain have no cleaners or Tea and coffee. Ban anyone who wins £50..etc etc
La Storia del Milan è in lacrime per la scomparsa di Franco Baresi. Il suo esempio e la sua profondità saranno, per sempre come la sua maglia numero 6, parte integrante e fondamentale del DNA e del cammino di tutto il Club. Le condoglianze che AC Milan porge alla famiglia tutta di Franco Baresi sono le stesse che ogni tifoso rossonero fa a sé stesso in un'ora così dura.
The entire history of AC Milan is in tears following the passing of Franco Baresi. His example and integrity will be forever etched into the Club's DNA, just as his iconic number 6 shirt is. The condolences AC Milan extends to Franco Baresi's family at such a difficult time are shared by every Rossonero, who feels this loss as their own.
