And that, dear reader, is when her reading of history stopped. In the words of Martin Niemöller Then they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out because they were already socialsists

It's got cake in the name after all.

Or the sound of rain on a tarp, or the sound of whatever that animal was rooting through your backpack at 3am. Party Boat posted:We camped near Kielder observatory a couple of years back for the height of the Perseids. Got a really clear night for it and saw loads of meteors as well as satellites whizzing past. Unfortunately our small elderly dog hated that we'd dragged her out camping and got revenge by being sick on the air bed. Camping in the White Desert (Western Egypt) we had little fennec foxes rooting through our stuff. We saw so many meteors too - hundreds of miles from anywhere except a couple of small oasis towns. Even out there though we were able to get a mobile phone signal - not strong, just enough to text people to say we were ok or make short, factual calls.

looking down that thread, there's someone saying that the woman is Jewish and the daughter of a holocaust survivor, so if that's true, it might just be a very poorly-worded attempt to show solidarity? Not that Jewish people can't be antisemitic, but might be worth waiting to see ed: link to her full speech has appeared https://twitter.com/HeidiBachram/status/1159883594048921600 CGI Stardust fucked around with this message at 12:57 on Aug 10, 2019 |

Guavanaut posted:The head of state is decided in about as democratic a way, but it'd be more amusing if there were wild stories about Prince Andrew being executed by AA cannon rather than sadly plausible stories about him being a nonce and nothing ever being done about it. If the Epstein thing ever gets close to convicting Prince Andrew he's going to mysteriously end up in the middle of a 6 vehicle pile up in the wilds of Norfolk.

forkboy84 posted:Can't imagine that'll benefit anyone other than the Liberals so I guess congratulations to Jo Swinson? Yeah for real. The Greens must have driven a hard bargain to keep the Lib Dems from contesting all their many *checks notes* one single seat. Where the LDs didn't stand in the last election anyway and Lucas has a majority of 15,000.

I'm quite glad that I can now vote for Labour happily, because having the Greens as my only option was soul destroying, they are like an inept circus despite their decent core values. If Labour really push the climate and ecological agenda then I'll die happy in the drought.

Before chukkatigcukadem came about, there were 3 years of constant articles talking about how very very soon the great centrist fightback would begin and 50 or 60 or 70 mp's had already decided to defect and it was all go go go and soon those drat lefties would see what a bunch of centrists could do This is the same poo poo, by the same folk- trying to create a political reality by just declaring that an imminent victory is inevitable and hoping enough people hop on board

Nick Cohen is the most easily duped man in news media but his ego refuses to believe that, so he instead doubles down on everything he's ever gotten wrong or been tricked over. Also the Green party is just done with environmentalism I guess.
