I still don't understand why we need the Sue Gray report. What's the point in it?

Young men

Take your self improvement books and throw them in the trash.

Read:

- Cormac McCarthy
- John Steinbeck
- Herman Hesse
- Raymond Chandler
- D.H Lawrence
- Ernest Hemingway

Their stories will teach you more about being a man than any non fiction book ever could

The beginning of the End. Or modern End Times at least. And let’s not forget the links from Ussher through to J.N.Darby, #EdwardNangle of the #AchillMission, Scofield Reference Bible, Jerry Falwell, US Evangelicals and the election of the 45th POTUS! #realdonaldtrump https://t.co/7z4UbT9l3I https://t.co/TwMEWjiVju

How to do some good in the world in #2022 in the UK? Like #tobacco and #sackler, ban all terrestrial and #onlinegambling adverts everywhere. And football sponsorship too. It is a moral crime to allow these companies @bet365 and @paddypower to profit from such misery
