    Between Germany and the UK, we probably bear more blame for what’s going on than practically everybody except Israel’s government and Hamas themselves.

    But what can you do? I don’t have any say in what my current government does, let alone one elected 40 years before I was born…

      Oh, when it comes to the specific conflict zone, yeah. That’s a very British cross to bear.

      I hope you get a reasonable government soon. It’s so sad how the UK currently looks, the government is too busy being proud of the past to make anything for people to be proud about in the present.

        We have to have a general election by 28th January 2025, and the way the polling figures are looking, I wouldn’t expect them to call an election much earlier than that.

        They’re out and they know it. Can’t wait. Also not expecting much in the way of immediate change, but hey, at least no more Tories. Until we forget and let them back in again.

          Best of luck, I am hoping every day that Starmer isn’t doing something silly. Like eating breat. Which is apparently deadly in British politics opposed to riding the country into shit, which is a-ok.
