Some ladies are better at opening champagne bottles than others

@BygoneBritain @PubHistoryTours Built before H&S ruled us!

An amazing picture of the dog leap stairs in Tyneside, Newcastle. This one is well worth saving and sharing.

@ThierryTout La guerre dans les tranchées.... Oui, creusées dans le sol français. Abreuvées par notre sang pur ou impur? That is the question....

LONDRES EN 1914-1918 🇬🇧 Voici de rares images du Père Noël distribuant des cadeaux à chaque enfant dont le père servait dans les tranchées pendant la Grande Guerre. Tourné à Hackney, un quartier de Londres, il y a environ 110 ans. (v. 1914-18)🧐

@Fs_francaises_ Only the fearless......

Ils ne sont qu’une poignée à obtenir chaque année la certification de nageur de combat. Ils rejoignent alors le Commando Hubert, spécialisé dans les interventions sous-marines les plus sensibles, du contre-terrorisme à la libération d’otages, en passant par le renseignement ou la destruction d’objectifs. La plupart ont déjà derrière eux 5 à 7 ans d’expérience au sein des commandos marine.

@Free_ByTheSea Politically - yes. For everything else - no way!

Do you think he does?

@AvonandsomerRob It was better, or just as bad, as the sodding teas and coffees thus ingested. How did we ever survive? Am I'm a boomer.

Gen X is tough. We drank SOUP from a vending machine. Anyone remember?

@somersetlevel Or fucking windmills.... Sorry Mr Cervantes!

@SurferObserver He’s git his eye on Poland !

Could Miliband start a War?

Our new Foreign Secretary is Madman Ed Sponsored by Chinese wind and solar manufacturers Travelling the world boring everyone stiff with 'renewables'. And giving speeches about 'energy abstinence' for the masses

SEXED UP AND COVERED UP Imagine starting a war because you copied and pasted someone's old university paper and forgot to fix the typos. You don't have to imagine it. It happened. In September 2002 the UK government published a dossier claiming Saddam Hussein could deploy weapons of mass destruction within 45 minutes. Almost no evidence behind it. A second dossier followed in February 2003. Colin Powell quoted it at the UN as proof of Iraqi deception. One day later Channel 4 News (@Channel4News) found large parts of it were copied almost word for word from a thesis by Ibrahim al-Marashi, a PhD student. They even copied his typos. Alastair Campbell (@campbellclaret) had already demanded the first dossier be "sharpened" and made "revelatory." John Scarlett's intelligence committee went from admitting there was "very little intelligence" to signing off firm WMD claims. No new evidence appeared in between. David Kelly knew the difference. The government's own weapons expert told @BBC journalist Andrew Gilligan (@mragilligan) the dossier had been sexed up. He was named as the source, grilled by MPs on live television, and found dead days later. Hutton ruled it suicide. Doctors and MPs have disputed that verdict ever since, and no inquest was ever held. Parliament voted 412 to 149 for war anyway. The Chilcot Inquiry took 13 years to confirm what a journalist and a dead scientist had already said. Nobody went to prison. Blair runs a think tank now (@InstituteGC). Kelly doesn't get that choice. Sources @Channel4News @BBCNews @guardian @mragilligan Others.

G’morning 🥱 ☕️

Kev & Mick. Him not being around feels very odd to all of us who grew up with Kevin being everywhere, the telly and magazines. He was Kevin Keegan - but he'd muck out the horses and fix fencing at weekends at our farm with Mick & Phil. Just a bloke. Lovely man. 🥰

@DanielJHannan I keep thinking we've a lot of parallels with the 1600s

Going to be interesting seeing how he gets around the world without burning any fossil fuels 😬
