"An old legend links the yellowhammer to the Devil. Its tongue was supposed to bear a drop of his blood, and the intricate pattern on the eggs was said to carry a concealed, possibly evil, message; these satanic associations sometimes led to the persecution of the bird."

Apropos

The Tories are going to gently caress me over, aren't they? I'm Canadian, but due to my parents being Scottish, I applied for and got UK citizenship. I'm living and working in Denmark on my UK passport.

Obviously if the worst happens I can move to the UK or even back to Canada. And there are many in this thread who are getting far worse from years of NHS cuts, etc. - I am doing fine here.

Rees-Mogg for example seems quite happy to shiv any expats (and the entire Irish question).

In Denmark here and I haven't had cash in my wallet for a few months. I just use my DanKort/VISA or maybe MobilePay - takes a couple seconds to pay via mobile phone.

Old people vote badly so you're just completely wrong there

Can I vote in Scotland as an old if my father was "known to police" for being involved in the theft of the Stone... (more problematically, being linked to a group likely involved in blowing up post boxes).

I suppose I can understand his position as something akin to "Tibet belongs to Tibetans" and that he wants the Han colonists that Beijing is settling there to go back to China proper. And yeah, he did say there is a moral imperative to help someone in need or danger... but wow that's bad optics at best.

I went looking for a more comprehensive report on his speech, on the expectation that he is being selectively quoted, but no luck so far.

I'm sure the queen would whinge if you booted her out of her palace but I'm disinclined to give much of a poo poo about her political ideas.

So... you support the Chinese occupation of Tibet?

I'd prefer if China wasn't a oval office to its citizens but that doesn't mean I give a poo poo what the dalai lama thinks, or that I am super keen to have him turn the place into a de facto monarchy.

It is possible to articulate a much better argument against colonialism than "it makes the buddhist pope sad"

So you *do* support the Chinese occupation of Tibet. Okay then.

Mostly the fact that her first name is Penny.

It'd sit much better if it was, I dunno, Eviscerata. Eviscerata Mordaunt.

A mordant is used in dyes:

noun

A substance, typically an inorganic oxide, that combines with a dye or stain and thereby fixes it in a material.

A corrosive liquid used to etch the lines on a printing plate.

After an hour talking to my dad about fundamental physics, I'm somewhat dubious of that.

Maybe your dad is a bad explainer, or you're a bad listener, or quite possibly *both* of you are just ignorant of cosmology.

Go find Cosmos on YouTube and watch the bit on the Big Bang. Maybe make your dad watch it too.

In the Gaeilgeoir community, it's been decided that the Irish for Brexit is "Sasamach" a clever portmanteau of "Sasanach" (a Brit) and "amach" (out).
