Hey, on another note, looking at your profile you mentioned Rosenberg, first I ever heard of him.
Glad you turned me on to him, he is clearly one of the great ones!.
Sorry I don't know much about British politics though.
I am a musician and have a lot of tracks on soundcloud but I am only an instrumentalist not a singer, I serve the musical community best by NOT singing🙂
@sonhouse saidI am someone who appreciates good music but hasn't ever made any.
@yo-its-me
Are you a musician also?

@shavixmir saidNorthern Ireland and Scotland has their first week of school holidays, a lot of families travelling. Plus, July already has the potential for problems in N. Ireland so it's the worst possible timing. But the English only think about the English, so not surprising.
Doesn’t 4th July sort of collide with Scottish school holidays?
If so, then it’s a very dubious date to hold the vote…

@yo-its-me saidProblem is that the economy and immigration goes before the environment for most people. UK was ruined on the day of the brexit vote anyway.
@divegeester
Have you looked at the Greens policy on these subjects?
They have some bold ideas.
@A-Unique-Nickname saidI like the Green's policy on both economy and immigration.
Problem is that the economy and immigration goes before the environment for most people. UK was ruined on the day of the brexit vote anyway.
I think the problem is generally the Greens don't do a good job of promoting all their policies which leaves voters in the dark and free to assume the Greens have one agenda (the environment). But it's all connected and I think the Greens have worked it out well and found something that could be a workable solution for all, if only people knew what they planned out!
I'm doing a lot of work with people whose rights have changed following Brexit. For some, there is a positive with the EU Settlement scheme and also with the provisions made in the Withdrawal Agreement. But for the country at large, it's bad, I agree.
@sonhouse saidThe UK elections are on the 4th of July.
@yo-its-me
So it looks like we have passed that date, so what happened?
Same as your celebration of freedom from us day I think
The woman who threw a banana milkshake at Nigel Farage is being charged with assault by beating!
Hahaha
Yes. I know. Don’t throw things at politicians. But hell, if you are throwing something, it can’t be much softer than a bloody milkshake.
Assault by beating; ridiculous.
Public nuisence maybe. Or littering. Something like that.

@shavixmir saidIt’s just the legal nomenclature; can also be called “common assault” and be as minor as shouting, threatening, pushing or even touching a person in and aggressive manners.

@divegeester saidStill... assaulting someone with a milkshake???

@shavixmir saidIf it was water it would come under the same Act.

Make a lame effort to get yourself noticed, run off, get caught and have criminal record, for life.
I remember in 2001 John Prescott (ex Labour cabinet member for those who don’t know) getting egged by some pro hunting idiot; Prescott punched him in the face.
Nice!

@shavixmir saidAlso, a waste of a good milkshake.
