“the Daily Mail, the Sun, The Times, the Daily Telegraph and the Daily Express have vilified them, using all their armoury of fabrication, distortion, omission, smear and innuendo.”

Another reason why I shall not give them a penny. Not one of them. bylinetimes.com/2020/01/09/har…
“They either want to bring the couple to heel, forcing them to behave as they believe a royal couple should, or to destroy the marriage”
“I believe that we all have an interest in the battle of Harry and Meghan because, in one way or another, we are on that frontline with them. If they lose, the frontline moves back a little and we are that much worse off. “

I agree.

What happens to your old laptop/fridge/hairdryer? The growing problem of e-waste | Financial Times

The e-waste problem in the UK is particularly bad. The country produces 24.9kg a person a year — nearly 10kg more than the EU average

ft.com/content/26e1aa…
A particular problem is that many products contains elements that can be hazardous, so method of recycling matters.
Mercury. Lead. Cadmium. CFCs and flame retardants.

See how much e-waste we in the U.K. produced per person in the U.K. in 2016.

Compare to the US. Why are we so bad?

Then guess what it is compared to the world at large.

The main cause of Australia’s bushfires ignitions of is dry lightning, essentially lightning from thunderstorms that don’t produce rain. “The majority of these bushfires have been generated by lightning strikes associated with weather/climate effects”
vox.com/2020/1/9/21058…
In fact, some of the bushfires have grown so large they have created their own thunderstorms, in turn producing more lightning.
And the point of ignition doesn’t change the underlying fact that the most densely populated parts of Australia, particularly New South Wales, are getting hotter and drier, vastly increasing the risk of a major conflagration.

Labour’s task is not to make itself feel better – it’s to win power | Tony Blair | Opinion

Much in this I agree with but Labour has to represent EFFECTIVE DELIVERABLE good NOT labelled with “we’ll keep the red flag flying”-a massive vote loser theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
“We put forward a leader and a manifesto that voters thought unacceptable to such a degree that many were repelled. Too extreme economically. Anti western. Lacking in patriotism. And therefore dangerous”.

Yes.

And it wasn’t a winning manifesto.
The culture of winning (and this applies to Lib Dems and Greens as well).

1st
A hard headed analysis of political realities

Progressives win from the centre..but that does NOT mean the status quo.

The financial crisis did NOT move people to the political left..but to the right

Another day, another Human Rights complaint by JY - this time against a heavily pregnant (beautiful!) woman originally from South America. I asked for JY's parent to face some ramifications for the threats and intimidation yesterday and was lead to believe the parent would be
banned from the hearing room - but they would not. Given a warning though. I hope the reason the parent was not ejected was because a significant number of supporters came out today - which was amazing!
Other than JY's parent, JY does not appear to have any supporters attending. Left alone in a room with 15 or so supporters for the respondents would give JY another reason to complain of mistreatment/discrimination.

Another reason the System gatekeeps ancient history (other than trying to erase us and our past) is because they want everyone to worship their gods of Progress, Production and Consumption...
The last thing they want you to do is look back at times before the value of life was entirely based upon little nerd charts with arrows moving upwards, and when their false material gods were correctly viewed with contempt and disgust...
30,000 years ago, CroMagnon: "biologically identical" to modern Europeans.

"Modern Man" has existed for 150,000 years. Probably stronger and more intelligent than people today. Ideas that "civilization" only came into being 5,500 years ago is offensively ridiculous...

Bethany S. Mandel
@bethanyshondark
One thing related to my NYT op-ed: Yes, I did drop a small mention of a new Mandel coming this summer. First week in July, to be precise. We are all really excited, we were all not so secretly hoping for a girl.
I haven't mentioned it thusfar for a few reasons. One, I didn't really see a need, I thought I had told most people already. Judging by the messages I've received so far, I was wrong. Sorry about that. Two, it really hasn't affected my day-to-day life in the way the other 3 did.
The debilitating "morning" sickness I had with #1 and #3 and the constant, overwhelming dizziness I had with #2 are not present. I was kind of scared there was something wrong until we hit the 20-week ultrasound, at which point we found out this kid is perfectly healthy.
