I worked with Cass about 20+ years ago. She was a nasty person with an agenda who, once she made up her mind about something, buried evidence (as well as people) that was contrary to her own opinion and railroaded through her own ideas.

I haven't read the report so not gonna get drawn on the current discussion about which I don't know very much, but I wouldn't trust anything that she says.

That's beautiful Will

Thanks :-) But a bit late... Nice theme @beseku

Congratulations @beseku :) New theme please

#filltheframe - dancing in Paris

.

Again, read Ian Dunt's book. To be slightly facetious, it might perhaps be better to shut down parliament all of the time! The one part that seems to be working well is, perhaps surprisingly, the House of Lords. But get rid of the bishops and the hereditary lords please, they have no role to play. Keep a balance so no one has a majority, get in more domain experts, and allow people to focus on the nuts and bolts of running a country rather than the political grandstanding that occurs in the Commons.

Unfortunately, I don't disagree with you :-(

The conduct of "democracy" in the UK is quite clearly broken (again, I strongly recommend Ian Dunt's book). It's also true that this is reflected elsewhere in the developed world. My caution, however, is that we should not simply be focused on what is happening now: the present is very important but we need to keep the longer term in perspective - and, indeed, 5 years may not even be a long enough period for us to consider, but it is at least a start. One of the major failures in recent years has been the lack of focus on longer term results/outcomes, with an extremely short termist view expressed in virtually all discussions of a political nature, be they by politicians, media or indeed in every day conversations. It's very depressing.

I'm more nervous about the next election in 5 years time.. This time, we see a Tory wipe out with complete domination by Labour. In 5 years time, when Labour have not improved things for the majority, we see mass disillusionment with all "traditional" parties and a consequent massive rise in support for Reform (or whatever their next iteration is). Just look at how France is going - it can (will) also happen in the UK.

So, much as I hate the Tories, we must remember that a decent sized opposition is an important part of a healthy functioning democracy.

(As an aside, I highly recommend Ian Dunt's book "How Westminster Works... And Why It Doesn't")

I've been using darktable for a number of years now, I think it's great. Very easy to use yet extremely powerful - I still feel like a complete beginner!

Yeah, it's wonderful. Well done all.

Hi, I think there's been a mistake - @Alf0nse appears to have posted an earlier version of the list in error?

#frontdoor

Aha. Thank you
