    It’s the new War on Woke. Might get the gammon vote out, and **** young people’s future (the young don’t vote Tory anyway. Unless they’re weird).

    Tories must go. Tactical voting a must. I'm hoping for a parliament that will have electoral reform high on it's agenda together with closer ties to the EU Rejoining the customs union and single market I think is a step to far for either of the main parties.

    I approve of onions. Great for the chlorestoral, lowering blood pressure, improve the taste of cuisine. And as gardeners know, deter bugs and pests. So nothing wrong an onion.!!

    Thanks Ides, probably the best, and most useful bit of information on Not606 today.

    In general terms, the above is true but not all onions have the same benefits. It's common knowledge that some onions cause tears, are hard to digest and cause flatulence and bad breath, they also have a tendency to repeat. This type should be avoided (or ignored) if at all possible.
    It was once thought that onions added value to most banquets but nowadays it's clear they don't add anything worthwhile.

    If I were to personify an onion I would say it was a bumptious vegetable.

    Never forget that the average voter has the political memory of a goldfish.

    I see Russell Brand has the Trusted News Initiative in his sights now. Interesting. He very, very, very clearly has no idea what the TNI is or does (or, more pertinently, doesn't do), much as Kennedy Jnr and Carlson didn't when they tried to sue the TNI (then quietly withdrew that action). Should be quite entertaining.
