You’re recycling my stools, Paulie. Top man. Waste not want not.

Honda will apparently say that it’s nothing to do with Brexit. They’re going to announce that the Swindon plant makes diesels, and that they are switching to make 75% of their production electric cars, due to a shift and lessening in demand, and that their main factory has the spare capacity to make those cars. Announcement tomorrow. I’m not saying this is right, by the way, simply that this is what they will apparently announce. I suppose we’ll see tomorrow.

Behave.

Just thought I'd share this with those of you who are local. I am part of what might best be described as steering group for Homebaked Community Land Trust, with regards to the feasibility of taking over and turning the row of houses nest to the bakery into affordable social housing, community space, and some commercial units. On Staurday, we went on some site visits around the North West to look at some other community projects that are in advanced or completed stages - one of which was the Granby Street Project which is four streets off Granby Street in Toxteth, which are being converted into social housing. Two of the houses in one of the streets were incapable of being made habitable, so instead they've turned them into a Winter Garden which isn't quite finished. One half is the garden space, and the other a community space which has been used a few times as a local pop-up cinema, for kids to do homework, and for kids to do crafting (to contribute to the lantern festival in Sefton Park later in the month. Eventually, they'll also use it for art exhibitions etc. It's not quite finished but it's absolutely superb, and will be a great space for the community to have a bit of time out. When the sun shines through the roof on the chandelier, it casts coloured light on the wall. This is the garden half.

People looking at their long term future. Hmmm..... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-eu-referendum-36616088 Wiltshire and Swindon have voted to leave the European Union. Swindon was one of the first areas in the country to declare a result, which saw 61,745 (54.7%) vote to leave. Wiltshire 's countywide result was announced shortly before 05:00 BST, with 151,637 voting in favour of a Brexit against 137,258. Pro-Brexit Swindon MP Justin Tomlinson, said it was a "surprisingly big margin" while Remain campaigner MP Robert Buckland said he was "disappointed". Reaction and updates from the West Mr Tomlinson said he had a "sneaking feeling" that the Leave campaign would win in his constituency. "That's what it felt like when I talked to people - but not by this margin. "Some people wanted to embrace the global economy, some people felt that what they had voted for in the 70s now wasn't what was there today. "The country has an appetite for change." 'Bigger picture' But Mr Buckland, Conservative MP Swindon, said the result was not "about personalities". "I passionately believe that we should be a member of the EU and have felt that for many, many years and I've made no secret of that - but it's not about me," he said. "Of course I'm disappointed, but I look at the bigger picture here and I look at what people are deciding and most people are looking at the long-term future ." James Gray, Conservative MP for North Wiltshire, said the EU was a "failing organisation". "I think it's been a terrible organisation - an economically disastrous organisation, so I'm very glad our nation is going to be independent from it." 'Must unite' Conservative MP for Salisbury John Glen, who backed the Remain campaign, said the country "must unite". "I'm conscious across my constituency and across Wiltshire there'll be people that will be very anxious this morning and there'll be people who are absolutely elated this morning - in virtually equal measures," he said. Swindon was the eighth of 382 across the country to declare.

https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/world/2019/feb/18/japan-almost-cancelled-brexit-talks-high-handed-letter-liam-fox-jeremy-hunt Japanese officials have reportedly accused Jeremy Hunt and Liam Fox of taking a “high-handed” approach towards a post-Brexit free trade deal, and briefly considered cancelling bilateral talks due to take place this week. The Financial Times cited unnamed officials in Tokyo who reacted with dismay to a letter sent on 8 February in which Hunt, the foreign secretary, and Fox, the international trade secretary, insisted that “time is of the essence” in securing a trade deal with Japan, the world’s third-biggest economy. Hunt and Fox also called for flexibility on both sides – an approach the paper said had been interpreted as criticism that Japan did not share their desire to quickly conclude a free trade agreement after Britain is scheduled to leave the European Union on 29 March.

We’ll have to agree to disagree.

Antisemitism masquerading as sexism. You must be expelled from the Labour Party. Even though you're not a member. Or, in fact, antisemitic.

Institutionally antisemitic. Hard left. Dangerous. All the usual tropes getting an airing in their individual little speeches.

Website's working again. I see it describes Labour as hard left, to my lack of astonishment. Gave it a cursory glance, but that's all I'll be giving it.

I can't believe Chuks would be acting in his own interests....

Stig outing Carragher as a ticket tout on a public forum. Don’t think Carragher will be too happy with that....

If that’s the case then Cardiff are idiots.

Along with fish pie I think they belong in a separate catagory of pseudo pies.
