So Labour have eventally agreed to a general election. Apparently it probably will be in December!
The UK looks set for a December general election after Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn announced his party was ready to fight the "most radical campaign ever".
Mr Corbyn said his condition of taking a no-deal Brexit off the table had now been met after the EU agreed to extend the deadline until 31 January 2020.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson can only hold an election with the support of MPs - who have blocked it three times.
The PM will make a fresh attempt to get their backing in Parliament later.
The government bill published ahead of the Commons debate is for an early election on 12 December.

A nice quality of person in the group photo 🥴
Apparently you have to be a living human to be an election candidate. Don't know how the current candidates have found a way around that rule.
But this reminds me of Ficus 2000 back when Michael Moore was relevant and why we will never get the "None of the above" as a legitmate option (part 3 is worth watching):

So did I @Anonymous
Mr Newsom, who has been highly critical of Mr Trump's environmental policies, responded: "You don't believe in climate change. You are excused from this conversation."
It's a tragedy that this buffoon does not believe in climate change and the impact on our environment.
It would do him a world of good to watch Sir David Attenboroughs Seven Worlds One Planet HERE , though I fully expect he would accuse him of 'fake news'

On this occasion, Trump may be the one on the right side of the argument on wildfires. Required reading from Forbes.
BTW, you should view all climate change news and anything on the media with severe sceptism because its a drive for money to fund research into an area that has so many variables that there is no single answer ultimately leading to the political agendas leading to more and more tax "because climate change"
What few CC groups neglect to mention is the correlation between the growth in the earths population and their demands. Ultimately it comes down to one answer and that is the real question nobody wants to face.

When I read population in GB during only Charles Dickens era the population increase is astonishing since then. We see it very clearly when it comes to another species though.
This is the true unsustainable problem for humans. Head buried in sand me thinks!🤓

I do a lot of reading and viewing re climate change and it's effect on the environment. I also used to teach students about the destruction of rainforests and environmental changes, so of course my sources were reliable.
Nowadays, I would far rather listen to the likes of Sir David Attenborough and and other experts, than the ramblings of the fool they put in the White House.
I don't think anyone could accuse Sir David of lying, or any type of misunderstanding of this major ecological disaster.
