You have until Tuesday … does everyone over 18 have to register at least one? What are their names? All mine are called Eric.

21. Andrew Bridgen
The question has to be: “why did every Government exaggerate the dangers of Covid 19 and insist we all took the jabs?” Follow the money.
20. Alabama-Georgia game 0030 Sunday BST
The Harris campaign is going to troll Trump at tonight’s huge Alabama-Georgia game with a banner mocking Trump for refusing to debate Kamala Harris. This comes as Trump will be in attendance for the game. This is going to be epic.
19. Rosie Duffield MP quits the Labour Party
“The sleaze, nepotism and apparent avarice are off the scale. I am so ashamed of what you and your inner circle have done to tarnish and humiliate our once proud party.”
18. Meanwhile
17. Helene report at midday our time, from NBC
What we know about Helene
- Helene has weakened to a post-tropical cyclone and is moving north, bringing what the National Hurricane Center called “catastrophic, historic flooding” over parts of the southern Appalachians.
- At least 42 deaths across the Southeast have been reported as a result of the storm.
- At 11 p.m. ET, the storm was about 115 miles east-northeast of Paducah, Kentucky, and moving west-southwest at 8 mph. It had maximum sustained winds of 30 mph.
- The storm made landfall in Florida’s Big Bend region as a Category 4 storm Thursday night at 11:10 p.m. Emergency services were rescuing people trapped by fast-rising waters.
- More than 3.8 million customers are without power across Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, Kentucky, Ohio and Illinois amid fears that outages could last weeks.
16. Steve has war room at 823
… and Andy has two exciting geo-eco-political pieces there too.
15. Cunningly disguised Sat-Mat
Worst film ever, ever made?
For anyone that wants to make movies, Plan 9 is a must see. Not for it’s lush style, great dialogue, fabulous production design, nor for the compelling performances given by the players. It doesn’t have any of that. What it does have though, is poor production design, continuity gaps you can drive a space shuttle through, and writing that’s so bad, it’s amazing anyone had the nerve to show it. That is what makes it a must see.
Ed Wood, Jr. was not talented, but he was determined. He did something that many extremely talented people have not done. He got it released. He wrote it, produced it and directed it. When his star, Bela Lugosi, died during filming, he still finished it. Not just this one either, he put out several films, and not one of them is any good.
So for all of you aspiring Scorseses or Spielbergs, when the world gets you down, and you just don’t know how you can get it done, when you feel like you’ve lost it, pop in “Plan 9”. I bet you’ll feel better.
14. Dystopian Northern Ireland
15. We once watched Plan 9 with our grandson because he wanted to see how bad it is. He enjoyed it, watched the whole thing and obviously enjoyed talking about how poor it is afterwards. He also picked up a number of gaffes we missed.

JH: An important task to be sure, AKH.
With regard to 22.
What if you have a chicken that identifies as a budgie? 🙂
JH: Indeed O&P.
14. I recall that, during the last plandemic, a lot of small boat invaders refused the various covid vaccines, as they thought ‘the establishment’ was trying to kill them. It will be interesting to see what happens in Northern Ireland, if they refuse again.
