Think the general tone has morphed into ranting. By it's title it presumably has served its purpose? By continuing to exist it's just serving the tinies in the main to keep up the ranting. So, we've all voted (or maybe not). Think if any if the rantees on here started a thread that indicated what they really wanted to spout then it would get shut down very quickly. There is little of the discussion you crave.

Thankfully most of those on here are not in the tinies.

Still you too will have a sore head when "teach" bangs it together with the other kids on here


Best way to kill a thread is by not posting on it and others will soon do the same

Whether you?re a Momentum supporter or not, your style of ?discussion? comes straight out of their playbook. Anyway, as you think that having the last word means you?ve won the argument, I shall give you this opportunity as I will not be posting again on this thread. As has been pointed out already, the only way this thread will close is if people, including yourself, stop posting on it - it takes more than making petulant demands to Admin.

You're right. It's only 'other people' who rant on here.....


Perhaps you take your own advice and start a thread to speak about whatever the heck you want, and stop interjecting in this one.....

Let?s add a little misogyny and objectification to the thread. I mean really, it?s what it?s been missing.

Here?s a recipe for Plum Puffs


Ingredients


1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon granulated sugar

1/8 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup water

3 tablespoons unsalted butter

2 large eggs

1/2 cup plum preserves

Confectioners? sugar, for dusting

Instructions


Preheat oven to 425? F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and brush paper lightly with water.

Combine flour, granulated sugar, and salt in a small bowl. Place water and butter in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Turn the heat to low and add the flour mixture. Mix well and continuously until a soft choux dough forms and pulls away from the side of the pan.

Remove the pan from the heat. Add one egg and beat until the mixture is smooth (see note). Add the second egg and beat again until smooth.

Drop teaspoons of the choux dough onto the baking sheet at 2 inches apart. (The puffs will double in size while baking.) Use a wet finger to smooth any peaks.

Bake 15-20 minutes until golden brown. Do not open the oven during baking.

Remove the puffs from the oven and turn the heat off. Close the oven door. With a toothpick, poke a hole in each puff to release the steam.

Return the puffs to the warm oven for 5 minutes.

Remove the puffs from the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Use a serrated knife to carefully split each puff in half. Fill the bottom portion with a spoonful of plum preserves and replace the cap.

Arrange puffs on a platter and sprinkle confectioners? sugar over the top. Best served immediately to hungry bosom friends. Can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days or frozen for longer.

Notes


Use a wooden spoon or spatula to beat in the eggs, or transfer the mixture to a stand mixer with a paddle attachment.

I don?t know most people on this thread


I wish we could just go back to blaming ?cliques?


Simpler times


My tuppence: The thread is the thread. Points were raised. They remain of interest to enough people. Calling for the thread to be closed down is misguided. Threads die when people lose interest and move on. As it should be

    • Anyone got any large boxes/crates for house moving that they no longer need? Please message 07972 368 261 Thanks Sarah
    • I hear there was a bear seen in Dulwich Park this week, a bear warden was dispatched by Southwark to capture it. They used a piece of cheese as Bears are partial to cheese (not marmalade sandwiches) and was heard crying "Camembert  Camembert" to coax it out. 
    • Sorry. They have become a bit grating. It was just a rarebit of fun.  
    • 'You’ve shown time and time again that you care about what’s happening in Gaza. If you could put it into words, what would your message of solidarity with Palestinians be? You can now pick up a free postcard in your local Oxfam shop to write your message – expressing how you feel about the atrocities happening to people in Gaza. Post it back to us, and we’ll take it to the Labour Party Conference in September. Many MPs will be there. So will the Prime Minister. This is a big opportunity to speak up for Palestinians and show the breadth and depth of the UK public feeling about this. Roba, an Oxfam colleague in Gaza, has been sharing her experience. It’s hard to read, but it’s important these stories are heard: “You can’t truly understand what starvation is until you’ve felt it. Until it is no longer just a word, but a daily reality that consumes life. There is nothing more soul crushing than hearing a child cry. Not for toys, not for luxuries. But simply for a loaf of bread. That tiny little voice bidding for something so basic. So human. We’re not demanding anything grand. We’re seeking the bare minimum to stay alive. And when you can’t answer that cry, when all you have are empty hands and a heavy heart, it leaves a mark that never fades.” We’re seeing a shift from our government. But they’re not doing enough. Despite changing their tone and acknowledging that there is a risk Israel has breached International Humanitarian Law, they are continuing to allow the sale of arms to the Israeli government. They need to see and feel your emotion. People are starving to death. People are being shot at whilst collecting aid. People are being displaced, time and time again. And Israel's decision to take direct military control of Gaza City marks a dangerous escalation. Israel continues to illegally occupy the Palestinian territory and this latest plan is a brazen act of erasure carried out in full view of the world. When will our government take action and say ENOUGH? So please, share your message. You can even add your name and postcode if you’d like us to try and get your postcard in front of your own MP. Ghada, our colleague in Gaza, said: “Every action, every voice, adds to a movement that can’t be ignored. This is not just about politics. This is about humanity. It’s about solidarity. It’s about refusing to stay and be silent.” We will never stop speaking up for Palestinians in Gaza. Thank you for being here, Charlotte Campaign Engagement Manager'
