I completed the #92 for the 25/26 season this week Grimsby Town F.C. A big #ThankYou to #gtfc and Lisa Piggott for a great night (and great win for #gtfc). I started with Walker Darke on 9/11 (really) 2001. Long jouney and great to end in Grimsby Grimsby Live and visit Visit Cleethorpes.

Two film posters - same film - for two different countries (neither original country of release) Each, I feel, rooted in the cinematic and political culture of the nation poster was for being released in.

Or killed the elderly with cold, or made the disabled poorer or homeless, or pushed 1000s of children in to poverty, or failed to pay enough tax, or allowed pollution on a scale that will kill millions ... or ... the list goes on and on

Re. "Choice" UK palliative care is funded by coffee mornings. Assisted suicide will be funded by hedge funds. If you're off to worl and I offer you a choice between a backie on my 1972 Raleigh Chopper, while next door offers you a ride in his Ferrari ... that's not real choice.

I have said right from the beginning of this hideous Bill, it’s state sponsored eugenics. Kim Leadbetter on behalf of Starmer wants to kill old people to save money.

It is the Wolverhampton Green Party Winter Social Gathering at Penn Cricket Club, Mount Rd, WV4 5RS (plenty of car parking) 7 pm Tuesday 9th December. Come along and meet us - non-members welcome.

Liz Carr asks "If you saw someone about to jump from a bridge, would you just stand by?". The answer is no, but, sadly, not many think so when it comes to assisted suicide. 🤔

Ask yourself what social class a woman who is contemplating death while pregnant is most likely to be from and then tell me this bill is not an act of all out class war.

Wishing you a fantastic 12 Days of Christmas and hoping that 2026 is your year. Stay safe and help those all around you prosper in their lives and let’s make 2026 everyone’s year. Above all else: enjoy. Paul & Claire

Paris has removed the paving from its city hall square and transformed it into an urban forest.
