venezuala protests against the usa oil 'deal'.

Exactly.  This isn't a deal, it's theft, and the news outlets that report it as a deal should hang their heads in shame.

an excellent comeback from the new york times

 


scotton social club, catterick

One of my local pubs that l frequent very rarely. What a bunch of rogues and reprobates. Relax ladies, half of them are married.

lake ontario renaming - an update

 


ron and cassie desantis are crooks who should be locked up

 Imagine if l had taken $10 million dollars from the charity l worked for and laundered it for my own political ads. I suspect l would not be sitting at home typing this, but so many of these rich people face hardly any consequences. Justice is meant to be blind my arse.

hello - an old photograph of me

Hello. An old photograph of me l didn't know existed. Now in a past life.

the new 'sixth sense' movie looks a bit crap

 


more deranged news items from the telegraph

 More derangement from The Telegraph, encouraging people not to buy China's 'fake' Range Rovers as you'll be 'Betraying Britain'. Who owns the real Range Rovers?  Tata motors, an Indian company. Our right wing press is a joke. No wonder l drink.

'we're not some 13 year old girl on epstein island' comeback

 What a response!   Well played.  Very well played indeed, and this should become a standard response to Trump's ever more deranged statements.

star trek - 'let's rename a lake' cartoon

 


lake america - an updated photograph

 


the kennedy centre at risk of demolition cartoon

 The Kennedy Centre being at risk of demolition by Trump because he can't get his own way regarding renaming it in his name. This is what America has become. A fascist Mafia dictatorship controlled by a lying, racist child rapist. Remember next time you get a chance to vote (in any country), not all politicians are the same.

congressman ted lieu - 'trump raped children'

Isn't it strange how there are no lawsuits flying Ted Lieu's way from the normally very litigious Donald Trump?

l like the look of the captain canuck comic

 


phobos and a sunset as seen from the surface of mars (and glastonbury).

A reminder that we are the only humans in history to have witnessed this. Progress and technology is mind blowing, and yet America has a lying fascist child rapist as president and the far right is gaining hold again across Europe and South America, ignoring the lessons from the 1930's. What a time to be alive.



Meanwhile, at Glastonbury...

yum yum - rum punch ice lollies recipe from benjamina ebuehi

Now this is a newspaper article that speaks directly to me (From The Guardian). Rum Punch ice lollies, and if the weather picks up next week l will be making some and very slowly getting drunk in the garden while reading in the sunshine. Fingers crossed!

israel targeting children with kites cartoon

 It might be funny if it wasn't true. Israel have stated if Palestinian children are flying a kite the kites will be treated as weapons. And l don't believe that Palestine Action activists are terrorists. I'm old enough to have lived through the IRA Bombings, and old people holding up signs against genocide should not be arrested in a free country.

who's side is donald trump on?

Nothing to see here. Just a delegation to Russia (but not Ukraine for their 35 year celebrations) and posting photographs of himself with an enemy of the USA. We all know what side he's on, and it's not Americas.

my cds still need sorting out

Some of my CDs in the spare room. I'm still slowly sorting them out but this is only about half of the collection, as l also have them in other rooms. What's holding me back? Sheer laziness and yet a keen interest in other things that occupy my time culture wise.

where l was on this day in 1977 - reading festival

My first festival, I hitch hiked there and back, and it was very very muddy. The highlights for me were Aerosmith (who l recorded) and The Sensational Alex Harvey Band, who l loved and still love. Best of the rest?  Eddie and the Hot Rods, Lone Star and Thin Lizzy. Tickets £7.50!

rupert lowe propaganda in the area!

This pile of crap was put through my letter box by someone who obviously does not know my views, otherwise there would have been a firm and frank  'discussion' on the doorstep had encountered the leafleteer.
