There's been a working docks in Chatham for 450 years. You can build houses almost anywhere but this is only working non-tidal dock in South East of England. Closing it next year at cost of 800 jobs so developers can maximise profit on land is folly

Nobody outside US counts this sub-orbital flight. John Glenn was the man - first American into orbit immortalised by Lightning Hopkins & 36 years later he became oldest human in space aged 77. Genuine hero youtube.com/watch?v=xMtsFA…

'IDF decided it was permissible to kill as many as “hundreds” of bystanders for each commander killed; for junior Hamas fighters, that accepted number began at 15 bystanders' Stop the slaughter of thousands of innocent Palestinians

Could also be a revenue earner - 5 million men in UK have beards - £100 a year tax - that's £500M (the tax avoiders might shave so let's call it £250M) would almost pay ministers private jets & helicopters bill

Peter the Great gave officials the power to shave off men's beards (unless they could produce a token to show they'd paid the beard tax) That's all Rishi Sunak needs to do to make Voter ID work

Lighthouse Cult targeting BBC but being very quiet about High Court which wound up Lighthouse in public interest last year after they filed misleading or false accounts - a criminal offence. Official receiver still waiting to ask Paul Waugh (who fled) about the missing million

Barring a Vet like Adam Diver anti-democratic. No problem with voter fraud at polling stations (postal different - I've covered postal fraud). Remember Rees Mogg admitted Tories brought in voter ID as attempt to 'gerrymander' copying Republican attempts to depress vote in US

On November 4 1839 22 Chartists were shot dead at Westgate Hotel in Newport for asking for the Vote. On June 8 1913 suffragette Emily Davison died after throwing herself at the King's horse in the Derby. Least you can do is use those hard won votes today & remember your ID
