@benjamingeer@piaille.fr @lameensouag.bsky.social Years ago, was with my French wife, walking past a primary school & over the wall came the same kids' taunting song I'd used in school: Na Na Nanaa Nah. We're both curious about similarities/differences between french/english. Back at work, asked every foreign born health worker if they sung it. All but 2 (born deep in China & deep in Pakistan) had. Including Zimbabwean who remembered shock at seeing 1st white person. That's v old.

@DrALJONES@mastodon.social I'm a left leaning, rightminded healthcare worker, ex-military reservist, who had Jewish friends & flatmates since a student & I know my history. Watching Settlers & IDF army behave as Einsatzgruppen, while journalists deliberately murdered & IDF navy commit acts of piracy in international waters is truly depressing. International community does nothing, antisemitism rife as a result. October 7 2023 attacks vile, but this is now on a par. Wake up Israel- you are being judged.

@AlexSanterne @unesco Unfortunately, don't expect this in Thriftstore Britain. UK plc can't even sort out a functional nuclear power station despite flailing about with privatised companies since they sold off the country's nuclear heritage in the 1980s. Along with anything else of value. Hey, but we pay lower taxes as a result ⬅️that's ironic, BTW.
