I try and stay clear HK, it"s not as bad as it was in the beginning but anytime i turn over its just the same old woke bollox, not wheres the ppe money gone?, why don"t bungle want to hit the energy companies with record profits instead of the majority in the fuel heat or eat crisis? You get my drift. I do get your drift. I think you mean non-woke bollox . For me I prefer GB news at the moment as it criticises all political groups equally and does give air time to all points of view. It's different for me as I am generally watching the morning shows UK time. I am not so keen on the evening output. Theres's a lot of things going on ow that have created a perfect storm that means for quite a few years to come people need to get their heads around the idea that standards of living are going to take a hit. This is a global situation, there will be some national differences based on things like energy cost in particular but it's going to hit on a global basis. I will be coming to UK this summer for the first time in nearly three years due to covid travel restrictions and wonder how different things will be, for example, I have never seen a gender neutral toilet, I suspect if I ask " where is the gents " I will be arrested for a hate crime.
Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |

Me neither, and I live here. I would wager that most haven't.
