Spring blossom (a little later than usual) in Greenwich Park. Pity there’s no audio to hear the chirping birds.

Word of the day is 'exsibilate' (17th century): to hiss a poor performer off the stage.

Migrants don't rob the public purse of billions of pounds. That's tax dodgers. Migrants don't buy influence & subvert democracy. That's billionaires. And migrants don't let our schools & hospitals fall into ruin. That's a Tory government working for the 1%, not the 99%.

Every year I send my grandmother a very small statue of Hitler so she doesn't forget she survived the Holocaust. It's not fun for either one of us, but it's literally the only way.

Hello @SkyHelpTeam. You're about to raise my monthly fees and I have some questions that your website doesn't answer and, unhelpfully, it also says you're not taking calls/running live chat. How am I supposed to ask my questions?

This is not a democracy. Look at how many votes the Lib Dems and Greens had to get to get a seat and then how many the Conservatives and Labour had to get. First past the post means a government the majority of people didn't vote for.
Look at the Votes Per Seat column 😮
