My favourite niece was bringning my new favourite great nephew to see me on Sunday, however, both she and her husband have contracted Covid! This does not surprise me, though it worryies me as the kid is not yet seven months old. Four people of my acquaintance have also suffered under this virus recently, and manay more besides. The incompetent Russian spy who occupies No 10 Downing Street has followed the instructions of his greedy backbenchers and big business money men to drop all restrictions, including wearing masks on buses, in shops, in schools and crowded places and now he is even ending the free distribution of the LFT's that test for the virus! NHS staff are now required to pay £5 or go wthout!!! The free parking for hospital staff will also end soon. Now, unsurprisingly, Covid is running riot again! Hospitals are overrun, and as you know the Tories deprive the NHS deliberately of funds, with 90,000 or so vacancies not being filled, although vast sums are offered for those who will lead 'Diversity and Inclusion (inclusive unless you are Christian of course).'
These facts are given little space in the right-wing media, which is all we appear to have today, it is possible Russia has a more open, free press than the UK. These facts are not wanted so must be ignored, yet they will leak out in Twitter and other social media, uncomfortable as they may be for Boris and his gangsters.
It is noticeable that Boris has gained some support from his UKIP leaning followers by his apparent 'leading' of the defence of Ukraine. The fact that this leading is another lie, the EU and US have done much, much more, is not something found in the 'Daily Express,' or 'Daily Mail,' and as to what is actually found in the 'Sun,' you can guess for yourself. It is fair to say Rupert Murdoch's 'Fox News,' is still allowing that Carlson bloke to spout Russian propaganda daily. What's in it for Rupert I ask?
Ukraine has hidden 'Partygate' for a while, however, this may increase some support for Johnson but the cover up by the Met Police will only harden antipathy amongst the rest of the nation. Especially as on the day the Met announce some 20 fines for partying, names withheld, have been awarded Boris leads the Tories into a drunken party at night to celebrate! Entering the Hotel they passed a line of silent mourners, mourning for their Covid dead. The Tories ignored them.
The sooner this lot are in jail the better.
The problem in the House is simple, the Westminster parliament is based on 'Gentlemenly behaviour,' and if someone does wrong, for instance 'lies to the House,' he would step down from his post. Boris and his gang 'lie repeatedly to the House,' but refuse to step down and there is no parliamentary means of forcing them to. Gentlemen they are not, and they know nothing can be done about it.
This is of course made worse by a feeble opposition, only the Scottish Nationalists of either type oppose honestly, and indeed feebly, while the Labour Party waffles and wastes all our time. What is Starmer for?
How the UK is desparate for a (seemingly) honest major politican with ideas, integrity and guts.
I wonder again if this is a judgement we are under for our false liberalisation of society?
I had an er, debate on Twitter last night re those who claim to ID as female when in fact they are male, and vice-versa. It got nowhere. The vast array of legal loopholes, laws, and 'rights' which was uncovered amazed me as did the attempts to justify this.
Quite simply we are born male or female, nothing else. There are those who doctors find are neither one or the other and have to make adjustments for, this is fair enough, but these are a minority. There are however, now many who believe they are in the wrong body, which they clearly are not, today such as these demand to act as they wish, in spite of others opposition. In some cases men, with penis's, have been endangering women in women only spaces.
The 'Gender Recognition Act 2004' allows a man to ID as a woman, penis and all, however this does not in Law mean he can make use of all women's facilities, for security reasons, though this apears to be lax these days.
As we grow life affects us, heredity, family, life, war, disease, trauma of many kinds causes us to react, sometimes leading people into strange lifestyles. Today we hear of one Tory MP who is openly admitting he is 'transgender.' This began when he was raped as a child. It has become known because he was being blackmailed and the criminal is now happily in jail. In his case trauma caused a reaction, and I wonder how many others with this slant on their lives have suffered such trauma also?
This is too complicated to discuss in depth, and few of us know enough about it. However, my heart went out to this MP, a Conservative at that, and wished he had had proper psychological counselling at the time, if indeed that was available in those days. How many others do not get help, instead are only offered support to live a life they were not born for?
How lucky we are not to have to endure such trauma.
I hate Microsoft!
I hate Laptops!
I hate Laptops!
I hate Photo Op!
I am convinced President Putin is responsible for attacking me on this laptop.
Everthing goes wrong.
Things appear on screen unwanted.
They disappear unwanted.
Today, I tried to upload some pictures of the camera.
It took half an hour for what normally takes a couple of minutes work.
Nothing would work. I restarted the procedure several times, yet it failed.
I had to restart the laptop and then it worked first time!
Why?
I took a quick, and terrible shot, with the wee camera later, and this has given trouble on 'Photos' also.
It didn't work!
Again I had to faff around before it worked.
I was going to attempt a complaint to Microsoft but managed not to.
They might have cut me off completely had they actually read what I was thinking...
