This tweet in which I am tagged wasn’t aimed at me (phew!)

It refers to a “charming” 19th century settler in Patagonia called Alexander MacLennan and nicknamed Red Pig or Red Hog!
Some of his story is told here:
patbrit.org/bil/supp/c0278… (via @jpberlinger, who wanted to know if I was related to Alexander MacLennan - not to my knowledge and almost certainly not)
There’s more on the wider story in this blog post by @southernconetrv:

It’s a story I now want to learn more about ...
Unroll, please and thank you!

I’ve been following recent constitutional developments in the UK with popcorn but also from behind the sofa.
8000 miles away in the #FalklandIslands, we do have a written constitution, given to us by the UK ...
(Thread)
The #Falklands are on the third version of their Constitution since the events of 1982 and the current version came into force 10 years ago after a long process of consultation and negotiation. Last year, another constitutional review started ...
(Thread continues)
In the meantime, there will be a referendum in the #Falklands next year (the third in 19 years on the same issue) on a proposal to amend the one bit of the #FalklandIslands Constitution that can be changed locally under current rules ...

Bald sind Wahlen in #Thüringen. Zeit sich die Verbindungen von Höcke und Heise, Kubitschek, "neue Rechte", Identitäre Bewegung, #AfD #NPD anzuschauen. Oder? Grafik @AndreasKemper. Wird eine längere Recherche! #NoAfD
@AndreasKemper Heise und Höcke ein Gespann und alte Kameraden, so titelte die @zeit 2018 “Der AfD-Mann Björn Höcke ist gut bekannt mit einem der führenden deutschen Neonazis.”, aber woher kennen sie sich? #AfD #NoAfD #Hoecke
@AndreasKemper @Zeit Dazu muss man die Lebenswege aller Akteure genau erforschen. Zu Heise gibt es Antifaschistische Recherchen, zu Kubitschek aber Höcke, scheinbar unbeschrieben? #NoAfD #Hoecke #AfD Kaum glaubhaft bei Höcke oder? Also woher kennt er Neonazi Heise?

#OnceUponATime,Six Blind fellows came in front of an elephant.
The first guy, Abraham by name, felt up the trunk and declared elephant is long & flexible.
When the elephant started probing with its trunk, seeking food, Abraham pushed his son to front.
1/7
Elephant a herbivore, returned the child to Abraham.

Next guy Moses, when he approached, elephant lifted up its head & trunk.
Moses reached its leg, declared it is solid, straight like pillar & not flexible. He issued commandments, rigid, inflexible & hard as elephant hide.
2/7
Next guy, Siddhartha was tall, he could reach upto the ears, declared elephant is flat, thin and broad and provides comforting wind when you move it.
3/7

#Story ...
1.’Dada ‘ was actually the name of the Dutch company that imported Fake Ghee Called ‘vanaspati ghee ‘ into India in the 1930s as a cheap substitute for Pure ‘desi ghee ‘ Which was prepared from cow or Buffalo milk in India 🤔
2. Desi Ghee was locally made product sustaining Indian Economy-on other hand-So Called ‘Vanaspati ghee’was a type of vegetable shortening made up of hydrogenated or highly saturated vegetable oil and made to just’mimic desi Ghee’🤔!

It was a Fake Product to fool the Indians 😎
3. Proper ‘Desi Ghee ‘ was expensive & Lever Brothers, now Unilever (Hindustan Unilever in India), knew there was a market for a substitute for desi ghee, since many Indians could barely afford Ghee in those days 😨
