A broad interview, including a section from eight minutes in on New Zealand's quaint road law.

A genre of billboard that one typically sees in the EU Quarter of Brussels.

The Westminster equivalent is the governing party backbencher’s softball at Prime Minister’s Question Time: “Does the honourable gentleman agree that he is a jolly good egg—indeed, that this country needs a robust Good Eggs Strategy—and when will he be investing public funds in the megacorp in my constituency that’s tipped me the wink for a non-executive directorship once I lose my seat?”

Election Day meditation

Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.

And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

Colossians 3:12–17

To those thinking about not voting -

The people who have started and promoted the online 'refuse to be part of the corrupt system by not voting/spoil your ballot/vote none of the above' campaign are the exact same people who will benefit the most by it - the Uniparty Tory/Labour party.  We thought we would lose the Brexit vote, but enough of us turned up anyway to 'win' it.  Voting Independent or Reform etc sends a message and sets up a good argument for proportional representation later on.  Farage will make that argument but needs the numbers to justify it.  We're looking at Labour potentially getting a huge majority off the back of 20-30% of the votes. 
There are VERY good reasons why Muslims, by fair means or foul, make damn sure they get every single vote in that they can, whilst so many of the rest of us don't bother.  Kahn's reelection should be a lesson for all of us.

They got away with Brexit in name only because ALL parties were pro Europe and there was NO opposition! We need to get an opposition in there.
There was a high turnout of 67% of eligible voters last election but, still, we had a govt elected by a minority of the population. If the other 33% had voted, we might not have the Labour and Tory parties we have now. Low turnouts favour the system. You haven't noticed the disproportionately huge impact a small minority of Muslims have right now on both parties? They vote, and because they do they have a massive amount of influence and get a LOT of concessions to the huge detriment of native Brits. Noticed many Muslims being arrested for preaching/demonstrating in the streets, but a Christian does and says there are only 2 genders and he's off in cuffs! A non vote in any form absolutely guarantees extreme and minority interests run the country. The only way to challenge the system is to vote.

Lunch break was called in the meeting I’m interpreting today at 12:37. The chairman said, “See you back here at two, everyone.”

The interpreters’ guild insists on a ninety-minute break. Some chairmen would have told the delegates to “be back for ten past two” at such a juncture.

Today’s interpreting chef d’équipe is German.

Thirty seconds after the chairman had hit the off button on his microphone, our digital schedules were updated (the chef d’équipe’s job) to read:

“Afternoon session: 14:07–17:00”

Don't forget to sit up all night for this pointless exercise.

— I know you were in jest. But seriously, the only good reason for staying up tonight is to pray. Otherwise, “It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows; for so he giveth his beloved sleep” (Psalm 127:2).

You know what to do :)

East Tennessee. Where else? The finest and most Scottish corner of America.

“We hold these truths to be self-evident: […] That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.” Preamble to the Declaration of Independence, 4 July 1776

This Gaelic pop song was recorded 45 years ago, when the first Scottish devolution referendum—and the takeover of the previously socially conservative and avowedly Protestant SNP by Salmond and his MI5-infiltrated Maoist band—gave the Nationalists a wave of popularity (following the mid-1960s first wave and the oil boom second wave).

As the SNP gets trounced today and another wave subsides, it's a good moment to consider what it is that keeps giving generations of Scottish voters a touch of the daft-in-the-heids.

Is reform counting as a major or minor party?

The masses dictate society, the masses complied, the masses will comply, the masses virtue signal, you and I are such an insignificant proportion of people that it's not even funny and if you genuinely think that the Reform party are any kind of meaningful opposition, then you are playing into the trap, in my opinion.
Any vote I make is an endorsement of these criminals and in my area there isn't an independent but suffice to say if there were it would be pure tokenism because the major party candidates already have sewn it up.
Reform have been given the oxygen of A LOT of publicity. That is the establishment giving you a fake alternative.
