Checking in - I can't see any of your lovely pics. MN is being weird. It checked if I was human.

At this point in the academic year I even question myself with how much humanity is left in me 😂

I was a teacher. I concur. On a good day.

Thanks for the new thread and repeated thanks to all on here who keep me up to date. (Although currently I think ignorance may be bliss!)

I'm afraid Sybil is rather disappointed in the recent performance of the Labour Party.

Thank you. Little Tennyson expanding his culinary horizons. He'll be well pissed off when I get home from holiday at only being fed cat food for a week.

Tennyson deserves a thread all of his own.

PMK. Appreciate all the taxes.

Is it me or is particularly MN crazy at the moment?

PickAChew · 21/03/2025 10:24

The govt is making it easy for progressives to feel disillusioned, but at the same there's some really, really good stuff happening too. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c80y2j8d92no

The government has announced the funding for 200 schools and hospitals apiece across the UK.

Yes, the press aren’t reporting on the good stuff. Not a surprise.

He’s kept quiet about that - presumably because he’s aware just how unpopular Trump/Vance/MAGA are in the UK.
