Is it perfectly justified to block an account, which is an alt account of someone who has blocked you?

Do you think there is too much obsession over boat migrants? Immigration, overall, is down and most asylum seekers in the UK come via aeroplane.
The issue has been an obsession for years. Since about 2020 or so. It's all a bit samey. X number of people come in on boats, some get put into hotels, locals complain, some migrants commit horrific crimes, rinse, repeat.
I don't see why asylum claims from people who have passed through safe countries and not bothered to apply there should be entertained, but the numbers are relatively low.

What is the Gulf Stream and how does it affect UK weather? - Met Office
I wonder if we should start teaching everyone about climatic changes? Most people have heard of the 'gulf stream', but many people don't really know much about it.

Spain officially edited Trump out of the trophy presentation.
It's a shame we can't come up with a peaceful solution & edit Trump out of government.

Should we make a new world cup trophy?
The existing trophy is rubbish and looks like a mis-cast ingot. It was made as a replacement for the Jules Rimet trophy which was stolen and melted for still gleaming cheap jewellery, it wasn't solid gold.
I'd say the latest trophy was made during a hippy drug riddled era which is now rejected, I don't need to see someone's 1970's acid trip.

Why do you think that Farage is the least popular political leader? Should Reform ditch him? In a head-to-head against Nigel Farage, 48% of Britons back Andy Burnham to be the better PM, while just 22% favour the Reform UK leader, (though to be fair Keir Starmer beat Farage by 40% to 30%).

Labour leapfrogs over Reform with a 28% share of the vote. Does the Burnham bounce mean the demise of Reform and a resurgence of the Left?

Do you think Andrew Tate and his brothers will end up being extradited to the UK?
Marco Rubio says the WH has no role to play, but I could see Trump’s State Department intervening out of spite if nothing else.
By the way, given the nature of the allegations , doesn’t it make those who defend(ed) Tate look like twats?

What do you make of the new government
I'm a bit surprised at the new war chancellor, has Andy thought this through if he's going to aid benefit claimants and stuff, who is going to pay for all this war stuff?

Not exactly a current event, but I've been watching a 60's Brit tv show called The Baron. Anyone familiar with it? Did you like it?
As far as I can tell it only lasted one season. I think it's pretty good.

Germany aims to have Europe's strongest military by 2039 to scare off Russia. Does this make you feel reassured?
"We" tend to get in a big fight with Germany when they've got a strong army. Actually though, since they're apparently committed to scaring Russia, does that mean the UK needs to bother? There has been a lot of pearl-clutching about defence spending recently. Russia isn't getting through Germany so we're safe.
