Good grief, what happened to live and let live?

And Oakhurst Grove.

Maybe they could get some cash back from ACPOA

Our next meeting is on Wednesday 20th December in the Blake room at the Clockhouse at 8.00pm. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goodbye_to_Berlin Look forward to seeing you all.

In deed.

Dark Side of the moon

You wouldn't get drunk there.

"And the fact that you said that Israel depends on Western support, in relation to a vote for a ceasefire, betrays what most of you think a ceasefire would entail: Israel downing weapons. Let's be honest here. What you're actually calling for is for Israel to let Hamas off the hook, walk away and forget about the massacre, including the pregnant woman who was disemboweled, forced to watch her foetus be killed and then herself murdered. " What we are calling is stopping the mass murder of Gazans' so far it's 10,000 half of them children. The oppressions of Palestinians has been going on for 75 years and is worse than apartheid South Africa, and that's hard to beat. And the massacre continues,they are even invading hospitals. What's going on in Gaza is genocide nothing more. "Were you all marching when we were arming the Saudis in the Yemen? When we pulled out of Afghanistan, when the recent war broke out in Sudan, when we stood by and let Assad massacre his own people?" Do you think all the people who marched in 2003 supported Saddam Hussain?

Just a reminder.

Change of venue, we will be meeting in the snug area at the Clockhouse.

Pretty pissed off with Southwark clobbering motorist's. Now Khan wants to charge for using the Blackwall tunnel which we have paid for through taxes.

Mal, I honestly don't know. There's so much horror from both.

No
