       @freemo @Surasanji @neverfadingwood I don't think politicians are honest either, but judges have to be held to a higher standard than politicians. They must not only be honest, but be seen to be above reproach and totally impartial. After Kavanaugh's testimony yesterday he himself made it perfectly clear he's neither of those.

       @freemo @neverfadingwood @Surasanji Fair point. It's impossible to find someone impartial, but they have to *appear* so, and Kavanaugh showed no impartiality yesterday. It's no surprise Trump likes him. They're both bullies. Birds of a feather.

       @freemo @neverfadingwood I think we may have to agree to disagree there. I believe a judge should strive to be impartial at all times. It should be a personality feature of anyone who wants to be a judge. @Surasanji

       @freemoI don't even know what those terms mean any more. Except that I'm not Conservative in any meaning of the word that I understand.

       Anyone else up for sterilising the British Royal Family. They breed like chuffing rabbits and the British taxpayers can't afford them.

       @Surasanji @freemo Sorry for the delay in responding - busy busy day. All the diplomatic functions performed by the Royal Family would be performed by an elected President instead, so this argument isn't valid as those costs would have to be borne in any case.As for the tourism, this is always used by Royalists as a reason for keeping them, but I can't say that I've noticed countries without royals losing out on tourism, so I don't think that's valid either.

       @freemo Even if I accept that the Royals do bring in tourist money, as a republican I'd be willing to forgo that sum to be a citizen instead of a subject. @Surasanji

       @freemo*butts in* The UK is in at least as bad a way as the US currently. Some might argue even worse. Neither main party is the lesser of two evils. *butts out*@Surasanji @Saederup92

       @freemoFair point. 😊 Today's shenanigans in the House of Commons has just shown up how bad the Conservatives and Labour are. Roll on Scottish independence. @Surasanji @Saederup92

       @freemoGood to hear. All is fine in Kraków, thanks, apart from the endless grey skies. Could really do with some sun. ☀

       @freemo @neverfadingwood Yes, that would be ideal. Somewhere sunny but not too hot.

       I hate sharing food almost as much as Marmite does.

       Pre-gig prep taking place in earnest as I imbibe some mild poison in a tall glass receptacle.
