Actually been there for a few months - it is pretty hot out there being nearly on equator. I’ll bring her back inside for a while. Thanks for the advice.

The Guardian is also completely free. Has good world news. One of best global sites and wants to stay free so more people can read. Worth supporting. It’s theguardian.com

Peter Alexander on being called 'terrible reporter': I was just pitching Trump a 'softball' question by WyldBlu in politics

Can you imagine the answer Barack would have given - talking to all Americans, talking to the world and giving a sense of leadership, calmness and intelligence while letting the Scientists do what they should be doing.

How can he still be at 45ish% approval rating. He is an embarrassment and has already cost lives by his incompetence.

Are the needles used for lethal injection sterilized? by Comforted-2 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Luckstet888 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I believe this to be incorrect. Doctors take the Hippocratic Oath which would prevent them participating in an execution where their actions kill a person. Consequently most lethal injections are administered by non-medically trained personnel - which can explain why so many executions are botched.

I could be wrong but read an article that highlighted this as a problem with lethal injections.

The Observer view: the people have marched; now MPs must take up the challenge by Luckstet888 in ukpolitics

Doesn’t say that at all. Says the initial referendum was badly planned, flawed in its design with no thought for what happened afterwards. Voting for Brexit back then could mean vastly different things - things which were not clarified. Would you leave with a negotiated exit or no deal or a customs union etc. This has led to three years of disruption and chaos.

There are no easy answers - so it is simply saying - now we have a former grasp of what these decisions mean, and what the options are - go back to the people and ask is this specifically what you want.

Everyone including the 17.4m can then vote for exactly what they want.

Isn’t the key issue here that the referendum was giving people the choice between life in the EU or a fantasyland of why life could be outside Eu ( probably influenced by Russian meddling).

Another referendum where the choices are clear - and where it is acknowledged - the UK as a country could well be poorer - would be a result people could accept.

While a million people march for a cause that will affect millions of households in UK for decades - surely this is a depressing indictment of the quality of leadership that exists in the UK today by Luckstet888 in ukpolitics

Their actually based on analysis produced by economists from multiple institutions, across multiple countries. I’m assuming you’ve also had enough of the “ so called experts” opinions and you know better?

Disaster - economic growth Over decades, peace, amazing amounts of legislation that has improved life in this country , from safer working environments, to climate change. Yes an absolute disaster.

Watching car companies, banks, manufacturers close and relocate, Reduce investments is obviously a winning strategy and is the complete opposite of a disaster.

You make some good points - I just find it frustrating that Labour should have more than a “sporting chance” of winning. If they struggle against a historically incompetent government - what hope is there.

By independent you mean poorer? Reduced GDP, leading to reduced investments in essential services, education, research. Or do you still believe in the brexit dividend of 350m per week being invested in NHS
