Well said, Diana. For me this stretches to video commentary, from almost anywhere, with over the top American accents. I can't listen to them.

American democracy isn't real democracy.

@strawberryhellcat4738 Do they have a totally different mindset to ordinary people.? I'm 81 and have a tiny granddaughter aged 3. I'd be upset with anything that jeopardised her future. Most of them have families and would surely care for them?

@eazymethod01 The trouble is, surely, that God is good at flooding, volcanoes, earthquakes etc, but doesn't seem to build a lot. Relying on him might not be our best bet. I have to admit, he doesn't sanction Chinese goods for ridiculous reasons. Free Trade, eh?

@strawberryhellcat4738 Well, you may be right there. Not a terribly nice thought. You do see people who have climbed high pulling the ladder up after them. I'm not against government "Intrusion" as I'm a Socialist and believe the government should intrude, to better people's lives or to stop some people harming others.

@strawberryhellcat4738 You're very welcome to use it. I got it from somewhere myself! Any politics has to be done with integrity. British politics - seemingly to become a one party system - openly and unashamedly - favours the better off, giving billions to a set of chancers who supplied anti-Covid equipment, much of which was useless. And the hit to the economy will be paid for by the poor, just as the financial crash was paid for by the same people. And none of those causing it paid any penalty. Best of luck in the future. And Socialism will be desperately needed if we hope to escape the perils of climate change!
