On this day in 2016, Jo Cox was murdered in an act of cowardice and hate. The words below speak for themselves. RIP Jo. Thinking her and her family today.

The deviousness of women . Chapter 153. Today being Fathers Day my wife made a roast dinner for us. But because it was Fathers Day she had made Smashed Potatoes for the first time. How excited I was. I discovered by Smashed Potatoes she just meant that she had made the mashed potatoes lumpy. Hurt.

Far more important things happening in the world but Wigan Warriors performance yesterday was dire. Almost inhaled my Uncle Joe's Mint Ball in desperation. on the other hand Waikato Chiefs are playing the best Union I seen all year. And NZ Warriors the best League More mintballs please. #rugby

Besides images of Hungarian Jews at #Auschwitz II-Birkenau, there are also images of their deportation taken outside. 2,969 Jews were deported from Dunaszerdahely 81 years ago today - on 15 June 1944. Learn about Jews from Hungary at Auschwitz: lekcja.auschwitz.org/en_6_dep_zyd...

I am horrified and heartbroken by the news that two elected officials in Minnesota were shot in what Gov. Walz said was a politically motivated attack. We’ve now learned that former House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband were killed.

I was told this week that my healthy kidney was operating at 88% efficiency. The same as a 20 yr. I put it down to having, diphtheria, pertussis, smallpox, MMR, tetannus, flu, pneumonia, shingles, covid x5, yellow fever and around 10 others whilst in the RAF. The benefits of vaccines.

13 June 1884 | A Polish Jew, Berl Spitzen, was born in Tarnobrzeg. In #Auschwitz from 2 March 1942. No. 25912 He perished in the camp on 6 March 1942.

Maybe, just maybe, folk should consider taking a wider view than cheaper eggs when voting for a habitually lying psychopathic rapist. Then if eggs get more expensive regardless, they can take solace that at least they're not responsible for the world being a clusterfuck.

Trump has only just worked out what he’s done to US farmers with his smash & grab of vital immigrant workers. As we say in London… what a complete plonker.

It is strange that people today do not think as they did 80 years ago - very puzzling.

When he started facing serious sex offence allegations, Russell Brand started parroting Russian propaganda. There is a pattern of men with 'personal problems', like convicted pedophile Scott Ritter, and fraudster KimDotcom turning pro-Russian. Trump is the ultimate example.

A thing of beauty. I'm 1936 George Orwell walked all the way to Wigan Pier just to sample this health giving delicacy. It worked so well he then turned left and walked to Catalonia without stopping. It was after eating too many that he hallucinated and imagined talking horse and Tory pigs.

Of course he has

12 June 1929 | A German Jewish girl, Anne Frank, was born in Frankfurt. In 1942 on her 13th birthday she received an empty diary. She perished in Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in 1945. 'Human greatness does not lie in wealth or power, but in character & goodness.' (A.Frank)

Badenoch is a total disaster for the Tories honestly. The biggest gift to Farage is the Tory collapse. She still insists while the govt is doing everything wrong, she does not need to lay out what the Tories would actually do differently. She sounds furious & clueless at all times. #r4today

“Where is the Labour party we know, they aren’t spending on the NHS & infrastructure” “Labour is spending too much on the NHS & infrastructure. I’m going to have to pay more tax”?? Whatever happens Labour will never win over this ridiculous country. It’s all media driven, listened to by drones.

Morning Thingummies!

Wow. Turns out the constitution bothering militia melt brothers whose sisters are also their mothers, aren't arsed about the security of a free state after all, they just want kids to be gunned down in schools.

“Dog chases down ambulance that owner is being transported in. When EMS realise, they let the dog in.” Love this 🥰❤️ #DogSky #Reddit r\NextF***ingLevel

Erm what?!

Arise Sir Billy Boston, long, long overdue. I remember seeing in 1963 at my first Wigan game. Fast, big and balletic swerve that left defenders grasping thin air. Or he would just run over you. Inspirational man.

11 June 1918 | A Polish Jew, Markus Silberspitz, was born in Targowisko near Bochnia. In #Auschwitz from 19 May 1942. No. 35783 He perished in the camp on 20 July 1942.
