Is Polish the new Cheese off topic theme? If so, I have legal ownership of the word Polish.
It shows I am old, because I remember shoe shine boys!

I have it on good authority that you can't polish a turd.
It should arrive with a bit of a sheen depending on other dietary factors.

“Ed Miliband and the UK’s net zero target are being falsely blamed for the UK’s steel crisis, experts have said”
“But experts have said this characterisation is completely false. Prof Rob Gross, the director of the UK Energy Research Centre said: “The clean power mission can actually help save the steel industry”

This weird war on green energy is baffling. It feels like the world has gone cuckoo.
Big Oil have been splashing the cash big time in the propaganda media, as well as helping to fund the Orange Turd’s election.
Quite disturbed by the story about Neil Young having potential issues with his visa upon returning to the US after his European tour. This is dispite him living in the US for over 50 years. There are all sorts of stories now comig out regarding people either being deported or refused entrance in to the US.
My friends Dad was a communist and always had issues getting in to the US when he travelled to America. It made me under how strict the entry into US may be. I.e. political activists or people campaigning for environmental issues. I can see British tourists affiliated with Trade Unions being denied entrance.

"Trump freezes $2bn in Harvard funding after university rejects demands"'
"The Trump administration has said it is freezing more than $2bn (£1.5bn) in federal funds for Harvard University, hours after the elite college rejected a list of demands from the White House.
The White House sent a list of demands to Harvard last week which it said were designed to fight antisemitism on campus. They included changes to hiring, admissions and teaching.
Since Donald Trump was re-elected, his government has tried to reshape elite universities by threatening to withhold federal funds, mostly spent on research.
Harvard became the first major US university to reject the administration's demands on Monday, accusing the White House of trying to "control" its community."
I'd hope this sort of repression would bring UK protestors onto the streets. It certainly would across much of Europe.

Fair play from Harvard standing up to authoritarianism. The whole of the wests governments cracking down on dissent it seems. In Dublin two weeks ago Mothers Against Genocide marchers were heavy handedly dealt with and were given cavity searches bizarrely. Two Irish citizens being deported from Germany for taking part in matches. They haven't been charged with anything. Scary times
I think it's around 300 international students have been arrested eg:-
"Earlier on Monday, a lawyer for an organiser of pro-Palestinian protests at Columbia University said her client had been arrested by immigration officials as he attended an interview as part of his application for US citizenship.
Mohsen Mahdawi, a green card holder who is due to graduate next month, was detained on Monday in Colchester, Vermont."
"Others who took part in campus protests against the war, including Columbia University's Mahmoud Khalil and Tufts University's Rumeysa Ozturk, have been detained in recent weeks."
**** Trump. I don't envy Starmer and everyone else that has to deal with the utter bollocks the chocolate orange starfish comes out with.
"Trump blames Zelensky for starting war after massive Russian attack"
"Donald Trump has blamed Volodymyr Zelensky for starting the war with Russia – a day after a massive Russian attack killed 35 people and injured 117 others in Ukraine.
The US president said the Ukrainian leader shared the blame with Russian President Vladimir Putin for "millions of people dead" in the Ukraine war.
"You don't start a war against someone 20 times your size and then hope that people give you some missiles," he told reporters at the White House, also blaming former US President Joe Biden for the conflict.
Trump's comments come after widespread outrage over Russia's attack on the Ukrainian city of Sumy on Sunday, which was the deadliest Russian attack on civilians this year."

He is all ego. He tried to bully Zelensky in hospital first term and failed. He won’t ever let that go.
I was born in Donbas.
I grew up speaking russian freely.
No one ever forbid this language.
No one ever silenced my voice.
We lived, loved, built our homes.
We didn’t ask to be “saved.”
We didn’t choose to be occupied.
russia brought only pain and ruins.
But I still carry Donbas in me.
A part of Ukraine - always was
And always will be.
