Have just seen our MP has been sacked for calling for a ceasefire, presumably Sunak is more than happy to see the bloodshed continue. I despair.

Sunak has sacked a parliamentary aide, Starmer has suspended a Labour MP….but let’s not bring politics into this wonderful thread…there’s too much grief in the world and within our own families anyway……sorry …..

Very nice!

We have 2 parakeets or they are also called budgies. If I had more room, I would raise cockatiels like the one I had as a child. I just like birds in general. I am also a birdwatcher, but I haven't gone out with the local audubon society in quite a while.

Fully appreciate what you are saying. I wouldn’t wish to bring politics on here, I don’t watch the news as it’s too upsetting but it was brought to my attention as he is our MP. It just set me off and I posted without thinking. I am truly sorry if I caused any offence, it wasn’t my intention.

I'm sure no one was offended. Right, Pete?? Pete's just playing offense or is it defense? Oh heck, whatever! You guys know what I mean!

Come over to the WoGOT chat and we'll chat about DCL's finer points. :)

I certainly wasn’t offended. It was just that the way I read the post it looked as though Sunak had sacked an MP. No offence taken G, and I certainly wouldn’t want to offend anyone in here…..
