It’s a very long way from the real reform of HoL that’s needed. I’d like to hope that this is just the start but suspect it won’t be

I should have said forcing rather than pushing shouldn’t I? They’re going to need a very forceful push

100% agree on this, plus pushing social media companies to make their products safer for everyone. That would help under 16s anyway

What nasty and dangerous twaddle

So I never needed to use my fingers to get the last bits out of the jar? Excellent news

Morning Popetato and #Wulferhampton of course. Misty and moody here today indoors and out 😀. Got a chap installing a new tv aerial later so need to clear the alleyway so he can get his big ladder through. Have a good one everyone 💕🪷

I’m feeling more and more inclined to making all football matches “golden goal” games. First team to score wins

Morning Popetato. I’m afraid I’ve been a bit missing lately. Partly real life stress and partly trying to spend less time online. Hope all is well with you

I remember trying to sort that out for my husband years ago and failing miserably. Just how do you do it ?

I live in the LTN area and the number of pavement parking w@ankers who tell me to walk on the road if I complain to them still hasn’t reduced

That’s very brave of Kevin from Nebraska

Who or what are her daughters furious with? I need to know

Fabulous! We saw it passing through our local line a couple of years ago and it’s quite a sight to see

What have the US, Israel and Iran got in common? All run by delusional old men trying to distract from their own failures and the fact their citizens don’t like them. ☹️🤬

Ours went straight into the shredder. I wasn’t going to contaminate my compost bin with it

I’d be inclined to to start with Thatcher on that front

Careful now. I once made a snidey comment about his column btl on the Graun website. It was deleted and I was banned from commenting under that ID.

He might be right and all that but if I’m ever on a train with him I’ll make a point of having loud and long conversations on speakerphone

Fine reading until 1400 and then it just got increasingly difficult and too much for me to know what became of the poor blogger at the end 😀

Our local butcher hangs his meat in the window, and tbh I strongly suspect he’d be a reform sympathiser

Reading is fun, setting daft targets makes it into work. I’ve spent a glorious few weeks with all 800+ pages of Hilary Mantels A Place Of Greater Safety. By his metrics I’d be worrying about missing my target
