I love being an immigrant (not an "expat") in France, and wish all immigrants were welcomed wherever they go. No longer have horses (too old to take on any more) but happy with my cats and the ageing biker I married.

Day 1194 of Putin's war, though let's remember the initial invasion came 11 years ago. Since February 2014, not once have western sanctions or military support come close to being enough to restore justice and defeat evil. Welcome to THE daily Ukraine thread, for Sunday 1 June

Gonna watch this once a week to remind myself how fortunate most of us are and use it to help other people just trying to live their good lives. Who among us would do differently than these hard working people to immigrate and better themselves. June 14th folk-out in the streets!

Chris Murphy on Joni Ernst: "I think everybody in that audience knows they're going to die, they would just rather die in old age at 85 or 90 instead of dying at 40. And the reality is that when you lose your healthcare, you are much more at risk of early death."

Our politics has become deeply unserious. Flags and gimmicks and stupid video clips and social media clickbait and lies. With very little serious challenge to counter the nonsense and the dishonesty. The consequences for our country and our democracy are dire. www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/robert-jen...

One of the great under discussed developments of the past year or so is how Royal Mail have largely given up on the idea of delivering post. They've moved on, god knows to what, but the rest of society still seems to be stuck in the naive notion that paying £1.70 for a stamp means something.
