PTO-ing now having been accomplished without assistance, I ask -

Dumplings?

In France they would pick up the suspect and slap him about a bit, whereas in Scandinavia they would play it by the book, even Iceland which according to BBC4 has an appaling murder rate.

Our police would be too busy covering their own arses.

You've piqued my interest about other nations' crime and their law enforcements' responses to it.

Anyone else dreaming during sleep about about current political events with yourselves in them? I wish I could show you mine.

I made it often in the US. Living in a semi-rural location, I knew the farms where the meat came from. I didn't skim the fat off for this dish because we needed the calories and it gave the stew a rich flavour.

In other news, it appears today isn't the absolutely final deadline for a deal with the EU after all. Who knew?

I saw a brief clip of Ed Milliband on television this morning, about a the two-minute clip.

In last year's December general election campaigning, Johnson lied to Nissan workers and everyone else when he said he'd an 'oven-ready' deal with the EU.

How someone sounds when they talk greatly influences their listeners' evaluation of them. I think sometimes people vote against their interests because of how someone's voice makes them feel. People might not be aware they're doing so.

I rarely listen to the noise Johnson makes, preferring transcripts of whatever it is he's said instead. I think some people are conned into trusting Johnson because of the way Johnson's voice sounds when he's speaking.

Johnson gives a sonorous performance in the link above.
