@mickeyundertone.bsky.social it's a catastrophe. I can no longer listen to your music shows as the BBC have erected an iron curtain against those outside the UK. The Sounds app is no more. A Brexit bonus? Any idea how I can listen to your dulcet tones in Germany?
A state visit doesn't just mean that Trump comes to the UK for talks or whatever.
It means a literal parade in his honour.
It means a banquet with the royals.
It is one of the highest honours we have to give.
After what we saw yesterday, it must not be allowed to happen.
I have read several recent surveys that clearly state a lot of people regret voting to leave. You do not see these stories, or you choose to ignore them?
What lies; Turkey will join EU, 350 million per week, oven ready deal, the kipper in plastic, no border down the irish sea, they need us more than we need them, trade deals galore, cheaper food, no friction at the border. How do not know these stories? How fucking blind are you?
You ask for proof; there is a plenty of news stories about companies no longer selling in Europe because of the red tape and extra costs. Similarly, food imports are also compromised. Fishermen not being able to sell their fish when they used to do it easily. And so on and so on. But you are blind.
First, it's an English/Welsh thing, Scotland and N. Ireland voted remain. Second, you were lied to. Third, only around a third of the UK voted to leave.
Fourth, most people regret it.
Fifth, it's an economical disaster.
Sixth, it was the wrong decision.
Seventh, it's still the wrong decision.
Maybe not in your life it's unnecessary, but that's a feature of a certain demographic. One I don't rub shoulders with. Except on places like this. And I don't understand your narrow minded view. Pompous attitude. Privileged. Etc
And you don't.
I find that very hard to believe
1. A common mistake is to look for ideological consistency on the far right, and to become confused when some of the things it claims to stand for sound positive and even progressive. Here’s a thread on how to understand this. 🧵
I pity you
A Lancet Editorial: “American chaos: standing up for health and medicine”
“...to care is an act not of weakness, but of strength.”

good luck enforcing it. It is similar to when WhatsApp had an age limit of 16, and everyone just lied about the age of their kids. War on drugs...fail. War on social media for under 16's....fail. Don't forget that kids are more tech-savvy than their parents.
Can you prove that it was worth it?

It's a pity that Labour are too scared to do the right thing. Spineless and brexit appeasement is their m.o.

One of my favourite quotes from a wonderful human
''Two possibilities exist either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying''

This 1959 paper in the Japanese Journal of Microbiology shows HGT of resistance for the first time: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.... (link to PDF). Resistant phenotypes transfers from resistant Escherichia coli to susceptible Shigella and, even 60 years later, it is still a great read!
