70+ years old.
I live just outside the city of Preston in Lancashire and support my home town football (soccer) team #PrestonNorthEnd.
I live with my long suffering wife of 49+ years
I joined mastodon in the great exodus from a very large algorithmic social media site in 2022, and last year moved to Friendica.

Why do you think they're bringing the cheese back, as cheese?
That's why a working loo was so important!

@MarkHoltom@mastodonapp.uk We need to tell the Met Office we need names for Heatwaves, say any temperatures expected to be 5 to 10 degrees C above the seasonal (or monthly) average for location, and possibly other names for those 10 to 15 degrees above the seasonal (or monthly) average!
Not just the Met office figures from above 25C to 28C (dependent on location in UK)

How things have changed!
He was the ex-king who had to abdicate because she was a divorcee, after abdication they met a fascist dictator.
Now our current king, who is married to a divorcee, can stay king and still meet a fascist dictator!

My crass attempt to tell you about EDMs was from the Government website!
I was not to know that you were a lobbyist, and like all lobbyists should not have been allowed close to Government!
Goodbye

@2legged@mastodon.ie
From Parliament's own web site, this describes what an EDM is
"EDMs are used to put on record the views of individual MPs or to draw attention to specific events or campaigns. Topics covered by EDMs vary widely.
By attracting the signatures of other MPs, they can be used to demonstrate the level of parliamentary support for a particular cause or point of view."

Again, no one can stop an EDM if MPs want to sign!

@2legged@mastodon.ie what was Kemi Badenoch's job in the Government at the time (2006)?
She didn't enter Parliament until much later, so how did she stop the EDM?
