For what it’s worth, I don’t judge ye by your government quite as much due to the FPTP system you have. I hope ye eventually get a political system the represents and supports you all equally.

Ah I have to say the Brits have been absolutely superb on the Ukraine support front. Like hats off, neighbour.

There's a peaceful march for Palestine in my city this weekend. I don't believe any kind of peaceful action makes any kind of difference, especially as leaders become more resistant to public pressure tactics in favour of their personal goal, but I also feel I must at least openly join those who also oppose evil. They believe in protesting, and I suppose someone else's hope is enough for me. Besides, I can't join a vigilante resistance group and make a real difference, as I have too much to lose. Best I can do is join a march and shake my fist angrily at the terrorist Israeli government.

Went to a demonstration here in Brussels. it's disheartening in many ways. On the other hand,.at least you know you are not alone.
