Is this the shortest reign of a PM? I will be insanely jealous if they get rid of him this fast. I mean, it’s crazy, but why do we have to wait so long for our bozo to be shown the door?? MH and I had this convo today. If only 45 could be removed so easily.

Do you think QEII is in her palace thinking they need to just let her make all the decisions like monarchs used to?

I haven't read much but headlines, but my mind is thinking Dive boat = exploded oxygen tanks. arg That definitely contributed to the intensity of the fire, but they still don't know how it started. It's really tragic. All those poor people. Reading about it this morning as we are preparing to book a diving trip soon (albeit just a two tank half day dive) is not helping my anxiety about diving for the first time in 5 years.

My understanding of Her Majesty is that she never wanted the Throne but has a tremendous sense of duty and patriotism. Her role is not to "control" Parliament so I doubt she wishes she could. WTBS, IDK how Conservative she is politically, as it isn't customary for the Royals to weigh in on such things, but it wouldn't surprise me a bit if she had an extra Dubonet tonight and rolled her eyes at Mayor FrizzMop

Can any private business not allow open carry in open carry states? I have mixed feelings on concealed carry. Only because the few LEOs I know always CC. The federal ones CC on planes. But are they exempt from needing permit? concealed carry rules are different for LEO. And the Federal Marshalls who carry onboard commercial aircraft are highly highly highly screened and trained and they only have rubber bullets anyway. It is true that private businesses can ban carrying in states that allow it. Target does, for example.

John Bercow (speaker of the house) is my favorite, he cracks me up. YouTube has tons of compilations of many of his best moments. I recommend watching one or two when you have the time.

And the Federal Marshalls who carry onboard commercial aircraft are highly highly highly screened and trained and they only have rubber bullets anyway. It is true that private businesses can ban carrying in states that allow it. Target does, for example. I should add that, like with everything related to firearms, the actual laws are a hodgepodge of state and local laws that create confusion and lack of enforcement. So, just because a state says that Target can ban guns in their own stores, they might have highly specific laws about what kind of signage is required and where it must or can be placed. They might have rules about what sort of employee can approach someone who is carrying (or suspected of carrying), and what they can say or do. It's just like how people say, "We already have background checks." Well...yeah....sort of. But when you look at what those background checks entail and how they actually play out from state to state, it is completely unreasonable to say that we "already have background checks." This, I think is why Wegmans chose to take the path of least resistance and punt their store policy to the individual states. But it's costing them customers.

The response from Marc Short was, um, interesting. Pence even more so He suggested it he didn’t command it And There are few places that can accommodate our unique footprint with security and doonbeg is a small town.

Rapid political momentum is confusing for even the most plugged in of people, especially in another country. I've followed UK Parliamemt for decades and I still google a LOT. www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-46393399
