    BBC report on taxing red meat. Said a pack of sausages costing £1.50 would rise to  £2.69. Yikes. 🙄

    Saying the ‘tax’ would save 5,000 lives a year?

    Thank you all, for your links.

     

    Only someone on Twitter, I was debating with quoted him.

    I don’t know how this Twitter user was so clued up about him? He also used memes/ quotes by Ann Rand?

    I messaged Max, Twitter account moderator. He replied moments after I made this post. He gave me a link.

    Ones again, thank you all very much.

    With respect to the price. I know a website that was also ‘hacked’. The owner said the cost of getting the site back up and running, was £50,000!

    Two things missing on the new Forums, which were on the old one, a thread visitor count and who is online?
    Facebook, Twitter and most Forums have a like feature. Could this be added?

    David Lammy, Labour MP, for Tottenham. Was at a local public meeting, which I was at. The public meeting was about rising crime in the area and street robberies in particular. Grant and the Police were there to listen to local people on how to tackle the issue.During the question and answer session of the meeting. A number of speakers attacked the Police for not doing enough.When the going got tough for the Police. Grant rushed to his feet and told speakers, that the meeting was not about attacking the Police!!

    David Lammy is no John McDonnell. David Lammy always struck me as not someone to let people or principles get in the way of power and personal ambition.

     Off topic a little. As David Lammy and Bernie Grant were mentioned. During the Tottenham riots, our local Labour Ward councillor,  was talking to a  Police Officer on duty at a police corden, on Tottenham High Road, near the burnt out old Coop Building. I approached her and asked; “why are people roiting? After all  they have the wonderful Bernie Grant theatre. The Bernie Grant Theater, was the love child of the local Labour Party. The councillor disappeared into the night!

The state-capitalist dictators of Russia and their supporters in Britain had no right to do that.It is true that Herbert Spencer, the 19th century anarcho-capitalist philosopher, is buried opposite him, hence the joke about Marx and Spencer being buried next to each other:https://highgatecemetery.org/visit/cemetery/east#featurephoto71

    What joke is that?

    __ Wooooosh I was thinking of using this (Wooooosh) on posts Twitter l Google it, and found the meaning of it.
