In response to those wondering why I did not make reference to the Speaker's Statement at 1159 yesterday morning, in the news segment about censorship, it is because I was not aware it had happened, as we were in the thick of putting the programme together.
However, in response to a reference to the Southport case, he said:
"I wish to remind the House that, following the horrendous, terrible incident in Southport on 29 July, a suspect is awaiting trial, having been charged with multiple offences. That means that the House’s sub judice resolution is engaged, and references should not be made to the case. I know that all hon. Members wish to see justice done in this case. It is therefore paramount that nothing is said in this House that could potentially prejudice a proper trial or lead to it being abandoned.
I know it can be frustrating when we see reports in the media of matters that we are not free to discuss here, but that arises from Parliament’s constitutional relationship with the courts. More importantly, at the heart of this case are three young girls. We all want justice to be done for them and their families, and for others injured in and affected by this appalling incident. Speculation about the case, including comments made in this House, could seriously risk prejudicing proceedings. I know that none of us would ever wish to do that. Therefore, it would be wrong of me to exercise a waiver in this case. Members should not refer to it, or risk prejudicing it."

Those of you that have stuck with it will know that content fired into this channel is somewhat sporadic, so continued thanks for your forbearance.
Output is likely to see something of a dip over the next few weeks, but don't go away. Service, of a sort, to resume late Nov.

But, first, witness this from the BBC:
"There’s a feeling here that Ukraine should have negotiated at the beginning of the full-scale invasion, to prevent the death and destruction they’ve seen since.
Both sides engaged in talks in those early months of 2022. But evidence of alleged Russian war crimes halted attempts at diplomacy, and strengthened Ukraine’s resolve to fight on."
Stringing up Boris Johnson (and others) would be a waste of good string.

Whilst I do not believe that NFU is remotely interested in food security, or farmers, or in the preservation of the environment, a record of resistance is worthwhile.
The Government will lob the petition into the bin, but when the transition into civil disobedience is made, this will be one of the markers which telegraphed what was coming:

The first visit of a Cypriot president to the White House in nearly 30 years. What is this all about?
The British Air force base in Akrotiri, Cyprus and the US military that has muscled in there too.
Poor Cypriots have no say, but they sure as hell could resist. It's not about the aid, it's about the war and the intelligence, the refueling for bombers and the constant airbridge to replenish Israeli weapons stockpile.
Time to boycott Cyprus?!

Join Us at the Farmer Rally Tomorrow.
Brian and Mike will be attending the farmer rally in London tomorrow.
The organisers have changed the meeting point from Trafalgar Square to Richmond Terrace on Whitehall (opposite Downing Street) because they are expecting more people to attend than Trafalgar Square could accommodate. They are asking for people to gather from 11am.
Join us if you can!
