Would anyone else like to sign the petition to get this disgraceful woman chucked out of the House of Lords? https://act.38degrees.org.uk/act/expel-Mone-2 When I signed it, others seemed to be signing at a rate of about one or two per second! Then I want all her profits from her unfit-for-use Covid product removed from her.

Facebook just presented me with this - Carole King, Aretha Franklin and the elegant, sophisticated Obamas compared to the crude, greedy lout in charge now. https://www.facebook.com/reel/1860916141427719 See the comment below it, from someone who has to live with it (though given the power of the US, we all do). -

A message appeared on my screen saying that my ukpowernetworks account had been accessed and I should create a strong password - or something to that effect. Immediate panic so I can't now recall in what form the message appeared, nor can I find it! It's not in my email inbox. Microsoft Word was also mentioned - I do have my password for ukpowernetworks in a Word doc but that is also password protected and I think wasn't open at the time. Has anyone else had anything similar? -

From the Guardian: “Competent white men must be in charge if you want things to work,” wrote Darren Beattie, who now has a senior job in the state department, on X in October. “Unfortunately, our entire national ideology is predicated on coddling the feelings of women and minorities, and demoralizing competent white men.” Obviously Beattie thinks he's competent - others of us might think he's lacking some brain cells. -

Here’s a long and very interesting piece on Donald Trump by Sidney Blumenthal https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/mar/09/sycophancy-toadying-trump-self-aggrandizement It could have done with a little copy-editing in places to reconstruct a few sentences to make them clearer, but I dare say the Guardian may have agreed to leave it untouched. It really is a horrifying tale. Would the British electorate vote in such numbers for someone so appallingly unsuitable? I do hope not. And I really, really wish someone would assassinate Trump before more damage is done. -

https://www.theguardian.com/society/2024/oct/01/paul-and-jack-were-murdered-by-their-abusive-father-why-had-the-family-courts-granted-him-contact This is enraging. Why do the authorities not listen to the mothers and children? There may be a few mothers who are making false claims either for revenge on partners who have simply left or they just don’t want to see them in connection with child contact, but I think this is probably very rare. Male violence against women sadly isn’t. -
I just heard this prog on Radio 4 and really enjoyed it - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m00237nb It turns out that it's been running for a long time, so I'll do a hunt to see how many previous episodes are available and what they cover. I'd never really listened to Oasis before! Maybe everyone here already knows the prog, but I tend to listen to Radio 3 all day as I can work alongside classical music, but not any music with words in it.

There's a lot that's depressing about modern life but one of the things to set against that is the way that, sometimes, people aren't written off in a way they once would have been. https://www.theguardian.com/sport/article/2024/sep/09/defying-expectations-amazing-paralympic-photographers-with-disabilities -

I just had an email saying my Prime account needed renewing and my credit card had expired - at first glance it looked as if it might be genuine. It wasn't. (Of course the usual trick of 'expiring now' was used to try to prompt a response without caution.) I dare say that whoever is behind it is trying other 'Amazon' scams. -
