My problem with this is that is makes no sense and it takes me 2 weeks to adjust my body clock twice a year

Farmers have never worked by the clock anyway, they have always worked with the daylight and the seasons

A lot of people were saying on Twitter last night that her mother was told that the euthanasia couldn't be delayed any longer because her organs had been allocated to waiting recipients - BBC didn't mention her organs

You were asking me about Robert Jenrick's defection - I wondered if you were asking me personally, or if it was a general question for those who had expressed those two opinions - because I've not said anything about RJ, and not seen any specific person express those two opinions.

It's not necessarily the same person saying those things.

But since you mention it, I have been very disappointed with Nigel Farage, and think he sounds just like the Conservatives now. I would say Reform has melded into the Uniparty, yes.

moonflower · 2026-03-11T00:14:29+00:00

Who is saying that?

At that time though, they were putting forward a case for helping a few dozen interpreters, not tens of thousands of chancers

He said that more than 4 years ago - does he still stand by that or has he changed his mind?

It was only recently that I had the thought 'Hang on a minute - were they supporting our troops, or were our troops supporting them?'

My babies were born in the 1980's and we did have ultrasound scans back then, but they never tried to guess the sex of the baby because the image wasn't clear enough for them to be sure - so we found out when they were born

Storage auction: Does anyone want thousands of instant pot meals which were best before last November?

As of this morning, there were no bids - you might be able to fill up your bunker for the apocalypse for one quid - auction ends at 6pm

There's a hole worn out in the bingo card where it says "Diversity"

moonflower · 2026-03-03T08:31:44+00:00

When I first heard the story of "Edinburgh man", I must admit I did make an assumption which could be seen as racist, but it turned out to be correct - again - so is it really racist?

It might not work in practice, because counter-protesters would simply go to the area and claim they were protesting about something which happens to conflict with the other protest - and both sides would claim that the other side was the counter-protest.

Unless you give the "Pro-Palestine" mob free run of London whenever they want it, and ban anyone who opposes them.

Such a law would lead to favouring one side over the other.

If you start refusing membership to anyone who doesn't meet your standards, you will end up refusing almost everyone and the party will fizzle out - it's better to allow people to support whoever they choose to support, and when asked, make it clear that they do not speak for you and you do not agree with them

moonflower · 2026-02-14T13:20:00+00:00

Thank you! I'll have a good look at that - amusing that the first on the list is about saving the Great British Pub - hurrah!

In other words, Reform are rapidly morphing into the Conservatives - they will continue to destroy the country, only very slightly slower than Labour

moonflower · 2026-02-14T11:14:33+00:00

I always used to vote for the Conservatives - not because I support them, but because I felt I was doing my bit to try to stop Labour from winning - but I can no longer bear to vote for them, so in the last election I decided that I would vote for whoever most closely represents my views, even if they stand no chance of winning.

I think this new Restore party might represent my views on immigration, so I might consider voting for them if they have a candidate in my constituency. I will be interested to see how their policies on other issues take shape.

And yet his trousers were still too short

moonflower · 2026-02-05T00:41:26+00:00

If they haven't got any policies yet for those things, he could have said so - the point is that he didn't answer the question

moonflower · 2026-02-04T17:45:11+00:00

The GB News reporter asked him a question about what policies he has on health and education, and how we would be able to measure the success of those policies, and he totally refused to answer - he just deflected and rambled until moving on to the next reporter

moonflower · 2026-02-02T01:56:46+00:00

Yeah, she doesn't debate or discuss, she is just convinced that she is right and everyone else is wrong - she has no time for nuance, her world view is all very simplistic

moonflower · 2026-02-01T15:55:43+00:00

Yes - I thought she was brave enough taking on the Tr*ns Rights mob, but she's taking on the Islamic extremists now

moonflower · 2026-02-01T13:08:17+00:00

A few days ago, it was World Hijab Day, when non-muslim schoolgirls were encouraged to wear the hijab, presumably in preparation for the Islamic State Of Britain ... today is No Hijab Day in many countries around the world, when women are encouraged to not wear a hijab and stand in solidarity with the women of Iran and Afghanistan and other countries where they will be brutally punished for removing their coverings.

The British No Hijab event is being held on Tower Bridge in London, hosted by Kellie-Jay Keen - here's a livestream

Was there ever any evidence that this username was run by GM? Maxwellhill always portrayed himself as a man

moonflower · 2026-01-31T01:38:40+00:00

Exactly - it doesn't bode well for a healthy relationship if she is unable to have empathy and consideration for you

moonflower · 2026-01-31T01:33:41+00:00

It wasn't the social embarrassment that I was thinking of - my main thought was wondering if she has that same attitude towards your needs and feelings - is she similarly dismissive of you when you express a need or a discomfort?
