Fini and Yoshon are being topical for #Saturgay. Snoosh is a bit jeallous. Cookie is just making sure they behave 🤭
Nobody who makes this argument ever says *why* they think fewer MPs would be better. Cutting the number of MPs isn’t a solution to any actual problem we face - it would do nothing to improve the quality of MPs, but would make Parliament much weaker.
India's equivalent of the Commons has 543 MPs. UK Commons has 650 MPs. India's population is 20X that of the UK. Noway's legislature, the Storting, has one chamber. We need fewer MPs, with better resources for staffing, and to scrap the House of Lords.
More interesting character is not the future 5-star on right, but the man on left—Joseph Mason Reeves, who drove development of US naval carrier aviation in interwar period between WW1 and WW2, without whose forgotten legacy US Navy could not have prevailed in Pacific in WW2.
The most powerful 5-star military officer in the history of the United States and most of you don’t even know his name
I'll never really understand what people get out of this
You implied I was doing something wrong. Criticise me all you want for the things I do get wrong - everyone makes mistakes, and I know I’ve made plenty. But don't go out of your way to pretend l've done something I haven't.
I've had an awful week on a personal level. An MP, a government minister no less, going to these lengths to say how they're not mad about me has given me a much needed boost. And to say I have a "conspiracy theorist wall" affords me much more organisation than I could dream of.

An incredible 1993 letter from First Sea Lord Admiral Bathurst to Vice Admiral Cairns, Commander of the Royal Canadian Navy, encouraging Canada to express interest in the UPHOLDER class submarines, and being deeply critical, implicitly, of plans to scrap these vessels.
