@Anemone when a diplomat talks about a "serious conversation", that means something along the lines of "WTF do you think you doofi are doing?"
Diplomats always understate. The phrase "a full and frank exchange of views" is a very polite euphemism for "I told the ambassador he was full of shit and he called me a **** wanker".

Just when you start to think things in the UK can't get anymore surreal what with Brexshit and that twat as PM someone digs ymuo ymthis gem from 2007... That bodes well for UK pandemic response eh @process @AirRation @Mauve_matelot

It's almost as if Putin and all the worlds other most hideous and self serving people built some device to take all the world's negative energy and translate it into power for themselves...

Oh.... I see. It's called (most) social media and we (not all) built it for them.

Great. Well done us.

Hate was just a legend
And war was never known
The people worked together
And they lifted many stones.

And they carried them
To the flatlands
But they died along the way
And they built up
With their bare hands
What we still can't do today.
