At the last election, the Tories won 56% of the seats with only 43% of the vote.
Research suggests if the share of seats matched the share of votes they received, the Tories would've only won 2 of the last 21 elections & even Thatcher would have failed to secure a majority. 2/

“Britain can’t wait another 5 years for Labour to acknowledge reality, that the current system unfairly keeps them out of power and silences the progressive majority in the UK. They must endorse proportional representation when it is considered in Liverpool.” @pimlicat 3/
Shout out to @BioNTech_Group who found time to answer this small time blogger's question! @hildabast I have it in writing now, a 30 microgram dose of BNR162b2 actually contains 30 micrograms of mRNA. And in addition, there are the lipids, salts, sucrose and water.
This means that by my calculations, every shot of this vaccine contains around 2000 billion mRNA strands that encode the stabilised spike protein. At 0,53*10^-21 grams per RNA nucleotide, this represents ~25 petabyte of mRNA per injection. #cantwait
If this doesn't give you the shivers I don't know what will: 
Tugging at a short THREAD. I came across this lovely mid/late 19thC painting by a Dutch artist yesterday of a paddle #sluice in pasture - the paddles are lifted up to let the water through or to keep it in (to feed the grass) or let it out (to relieve flooding)...
2. The painting was on the wonderful Dutch website for images of cultural heritage mentioned yesterday by @Henk_Baas beeldbank.cultureelerfgoed.nl/alle-afbeeldin…. It’s by J H L de Haas (1832-1906).
3. Thing is, I’d seen this before - these sluices/weirs controlled by paddles & rymers were common once & 3 still survive on the upper Thames W of Oxford at Northmoor, Rushey & Radcot - this photo is of Northmoor the-river-thames.co.uk/locks.htm.
