I wonder if a government of any hue will have the courage to tear the NHS
down and rebuild it? If so, how?

Good morning all.  
Just going to peg my washing out before going into town.
Bet no one else can equal that for excitement.

Here's hoping they have a fun and safe journey,  and that kind people put plenty of bird food out.

I hope the young Robins made it safely..

I don't know of any Jewish people..
However, I know that I would feel safer walking in a Jewish area rather than 
many others..

Quote from: CHF on May 04, 2026, 12:33:03 PMAnti-Semitism has gone on for centuries. I read somewhere that
the early excuse was that they killed Jesus. The jews have twice
been banned from Britain. I remember my mother talking about
a friend being 'Jewed' - cheated. Whether the cheat was really
Jewish, I was too young to ask.

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is a different matter; it is about
land as well as hate.

The Bible says there will always be war and rumours of war.
How right it is!

It's not really about land .
The " Palestinians " a name invented by Yasser Arafat in 1964 have been offered a state over six times since 1948
They have refused all offers
This is because they don't want peace they want the elimination of Israel .
They had Gaza
Israel  withdrew completely in 2005
What did they do with it ?
One of the best pieces of real estate in the world .
With the billions of international aid poured into it in the over the nearly two decades of Hamas rule they build tunnels in order to attack Israel .
They could have made it the Singapore of the Middle East
But no they want the destruction of Israel .
Oct 7th was not about land it's was about murdering  Israelis .
Backed by Iran and Qatar they thought the rest of the ME would join them and destroy Israel .
They were wrong

Our offspring have increasingly limited places to go .
