    War

    Last post...going down to the cellar...all the air raid sirens are going off around town...
    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

        It was 53 years ago today that a nuclear bomb was lost. Not that that will be the reason.

        Now, is it me, or has this bomb been made to look like a cartoon willy?

                Seriously, if the balloon went up and you had to stay in a shelter for two or three weeks, the most important thing is water, several times what you think you'd need. Most people underestimate how hot and stuffy it would get from just from your own body heat, let alone possible fires outside.

                  It was good for Thatcher, probably. Not so good for Tony Blair, who when you think about it, started twice as many wars as Hitler.
                  Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

                    Hitler declared war on Russia, and declared war on the USA. (Although the Americans like to think it was them that declared war on Germany.)

                    Bliar's war was not legal.

                    Hitler never got to claim his pension.

                    Bliar is raking it in, tax-avoided, by being a peace envoy and consultant.

                    Bliar, the c**t, clearly won.
