☑️ Told Simeon Brown what I think of his petty, wasteful, costly, and unsafe speed limit proposals.

The Heritage Foundation “don’t make us kill you, Democrats” statement may mark one of those moments people will read about in 100 years (hopefully!) and think to themselves “why didn’t they freak out when they heard the extremists say that?” (Sadly, it’s just not how humans work most of the time)

Through my childhood, on election nights, my dad was the man under Peter Snow’s desk putting interesting facts on notecards into his socks. That’s how it was done before Google, kids. You got a very clever ASD man with some Oxford degrees to just remember interesting constituency histories.

Perfect summary.
Worth a read if you want to understand Luxon and his mates.

It’s not exactly equal to this (because USA) but the same basic processes apply if you met Kings/Grammar boys circa the 80s to 90s. I have a large collection of horror stories.

A tragically common cause of death before pasteurization was food poisoning in children who were being weaned and starting to drink cow's milk. Pasteurization is one of the greatest public health successes in the history of the world, and now it's protecting us from H5N1 bird flu 🧪
