    Nice to see they're keeping company with the British Union of Fascists.

    Wow! Never heard this mentioned in the news, just lots of froth about how the Extinction rebellion protests risk spreading CV19. Hope they got the names and addresses of this lot for track and trace later☺. Amazingly not a tin foil hat to be seen. Thought the police needed better masks than those flimsy ones when they are in a crowd like that.

    I don't spend my time trawling the newspapers, just generally get the headlines on the radio ( remember them) and occasionally follow up on't internet.

    Currently trying to make some sense of the brief report that the British Army might scrap Challanger tanks and buy German ones. While on the radio they are talking about havng to restrict state aid to British industry as part of the Brexit deal, doesn't Compute

    Can see that they're planning to scrap them as they're old and, according to some, not relevent on today's battlefield. Can also see that they're talking about replacing them potnetially with what are effectively drones, but I can't see that there's a plan to buy German tanks instead.

    Anyway, a bit off topic

    I don’t get this condemnation by association thing. So if I am a Man U supporter and find out that Peter Sutcliffe / Gary Glitter / Derek Chauvin also support Man U, do I have to support Man City instead? Cos they are bad men and I cannot allow myself to be tainted by their own personal likes or dislikes. Even though my decision to support Man U had F all to do with their various crimes?
