Who is ‘your’? I wonder if we have a superior AI bot here? Of course we don’t know enough – it matters to us as to what politicians we have and who might rise in their coffin and walk even just at night. We might bite them on the neck and get them going.
It is of no value to us to hear the apparent situation of our politics from you, we have to look for the percentage of quality left. Perhaps being so wise you could come up with some non-violent means of turning things around. Or have I missed that – I’m a bit tired and may have not read your comments No Comment, thoroughly.
Whinge, bitch n moan, sigh. Right-o, must get on then….
I like historical consensus rather than hysterical consensux as with Trump. Can we find a majority to do better? Like dear old UK we only have to get to 51% don’t we?? Such a wise preceptor!
Full marks for her handling of COVID.
As for the rest, she administered anaesthetics and palliative care but didn’t address the disease of neoliberalism in any effective or lasting manner.
She wasn’t Joan of Arc, but did her best against overwhelming odds from all directions. I consider this after reviewing the stupidity and brouhaha that flooded us with the new virus spread. And Jean d’Arc died didn’t she; I suppose the supine amongst us would like to save their own bacon at someone else’s expense.
This is what happened to Jean when she wasn’t able to win and transform her part of France every time. The Burgundians in France were in cahoots with the Rngish and captured her. She was put on trial by Bishop Pierre Cauchon on accusations of heresy, which included blaspheming by wearing men’s clothes, acting upon visions that were demonic, and refusing to submit her words and deeds to the judgment of the church. She was declared guilty and burned at the stake on 30 May 1431, aged about nineteen. .
No wonder the National Library are throwing out old books because no-one is interested in them. We are incapable of carrying learning about people for longer than say two generations. Whereas that about machinery, chemicals, physics are retained and have helped us build nuclear bombs, drones and a better world through AI! /sarc
Just like a poll of the 10% of the population who are farmers that said they would vote NATIONAL .nO SUPRISES THER IS THERE .
There is a class of predatory capitalists who will find this sign attractive.
