    I've just read the article and I wonder if it's because there's no physical evidence as such - no bombed out buildings, no burnt out tower block, no flood, no earthquake.
    What are they doing with all of the bodies? Is there a shortage of coffins? Are hearses lined up outside crematiriums like ambulances outside a hospital? They never bother us with those uncomfortable details.

    As Zoe says, we're being constantly gaslighted....

    I just wondered if Barnum had a word for such wilfully fooled folk??

    You can have all the physical evidence and it still gets ignored doesn't it? Whatever happened after Grenfell? What happened about Blair and Bush after The WOMD fiasco?
    Maybe an inquiry occurs, maybe not - but years after the event, nothing has been done and all is forgotten anyway. Our current PM attempted to prorogue parliament for weeks to stop democracy. No one cares anymore - the next issue comes along and the last one fades into insignificance.
    I think I'm just pee'd off as I watched Official Secrets last night (with Keira Knightley and Ralph Fiennes) and the injustice and hypocrisy of it all gets to you eh?


    This is off-topic but is Official Secrets worth watching?

    Not a comment on the "fooled" but an expression of admiration for Zoe's initial and internal alliteration AS WELL AS assonance!

    Looks a bit like that...

    Their man was, another of Trump’s mates, Nigel Farage. He was an elected Member of the European Parliament and a member of the EU fisheries Committee for 3 years. Didn't do any work for the fishermen.  Yet, with donations of £10 MILLION from here and there, he managed to lead a Brexit campaign that promised to deliver for UK fishing; and now Brexit has brought it to its knees.

    We, remainers, told them so.   :'(

    I still find it kind of odd that there was no process or emergency plan in place to just use the UK caught shellfish in the UK if getting it into the EU proved problematic for a few weeks. I mean I quite fancy some scampi or a nice crab sandwich right now...
    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.
