What was true two days ago is just as true today. BBC (and all other news channels) should just get on with it and expose Trump for the empty vessel he is. The wave of MAGA adulation that empowered him is waning fast. By 2028 he will be universally reviled as pathetic.

Here's "Trump'll Nail Ya" - a song about the #BBC legal crisis (set to the tune of the shanty "Drunken Sailor") which created a big internal debate about what's a gremlin and what's a mogwai. šŸŽ¶āš“ļø

Imagine being a dairy or beef farmer between in 1986 and 2002. First assault was BSE. Every animal over 30 months old was slaughtered. Then Foot and Mouth Disease. If you drew the short straw (and many did) all your stock was slaughtered too. Crown Lane tells it all. Buy Amazon.

Ms Haliday challenges my assertion that badgers kill and eat hedgehogs. Is there anyone out there prepared to put evidence in front of her that proves her wrong? My own internet search confirms badgers are able to unzip hedgehogs like a purse & enjoy eating everything within.

Boomers had a lucky life? Tell that to Ben Robson! Corporal punishment at school was endless. His sister faced serious sexual assault & in his late 20s UK inflation stood at 26%. How did the Robsons win through? Buy Crown Lane for Christmas. Its just £10 & easiest through Amazon.

English cricket team is the most embarrassing side I’ve ever seen. Complete and utter arrogance coming into it and to dish that shit out, getting rolled for 172 on that deck. Stop wasting my time and go home. 5-0 fuck off.

Whilst so many UK editors enable and encourage their hero Trump’s ā€œ$5Bnā€ BBC attack The Economist says ā€œThis is the Anything Goes Era in Americaā€ and in a truly extraordinary leader talks of… ā€˜ā€¦The way the President’s family have enriched themselves in his second term…’

I worked for 20 years in "Big Ag" so you don’t have to. This is what they don’t want you to know: Farmers don’t have time for conspiracy theories. Romanticize farming all you want, but without modern tools, you’d starve. GM crops aren't frankenfood. They cut pesticide

Classic FM: Brimful with sonorous snoring and/or people guzzling/masticating a sandwich. What could be more relaxing. What could be more soothing? (Switched it off.)

Just a reminder of how the rags that are currently slating Rachel Reeves, responded to Liz Truss and Kwasi Kwarteng’s mini budget. A budget full of unfunded tax cuts that very quickly tanked the British economy. Why? Because the rich hate paying tax.

Wrote that article year ago. Food security situation was bad then but worse now. Westminster's 40 year olds have worked only in that bubble so have no understanding of how critical to national stability food production is. They think farming (food production) is a rustic pastime.
