William Shatner.....

"When I looked in the opposite direction, into space, there was no mystery, no majestic awe to behold... all I saw was death. I discovered that the beauty isn’t out there, it’s down here, with all of us. Leaving that behind made my connection to our tiny planet even more profound. It was among the strongest feelings of grief I have ever encountered. The contrast between the vicious coldness of space and the warm nurturing of Earth below filled me with overwhelming sadness. Every day, we are confronted with the knowledge of further destruction of Earth at our hands. Things that took 5 billion years to evolve, and suddenly we will never see them again because of the interference of mankind. It filled me with dread. My trip to space was supposed to be a celebration; instead, it felt like a funeral. In this insignificance we share, we have one gift that other species perhaps do not: we are aware — not only of our insignificance, but the grandeur around us that makes us insignificant. That allows us perhaps a chance to rededicate ourselves to our planet, to each other, to life and love all around us. If we seize that chance."
 
Tories and their client journalists windmilling all over the place over Labour actually having a plan for asylum seekers today. Sunak will cling on before calling an election as late as possible before ****ing off to America with the cut of the cash he’s siphoned to the in-laws.
