Well, what do you know?
After nine months of being in post our Labour MP has finally replied to a letter!
I wrote to complain about the changes to disability benefits, and he sent me a long and detailed explanation.
I wonder why he has replied on this issue and not to our many letters about Gaza. Surely it’s not because his majority (350) is much less than the number of people in our constituency who will lose their PIP under the new dispensation?
Meanwhile, Dave and I learned this week that the RAF is flying reconnaissance planes over Gaza. They have conducted more than 500 such flights since December 2023, and the story is that they’re solely for locating hostages. I am baffled as to how they do that.
Surely they’re not in cahoots with the Israelis, are they? The U.K. government does allow arms sales to this criminal regime, so it wouldn’t surprise me.
The sun rises in spite of everything.
And the lime trees opposite our house are so beautiful this week it makes me want to go up and hug them, one at a time, all along the row.
Do you remember Garrison Keillor of Lake Woebegon fame?
He has a blog, and some of his posts are excellent. I enjoyed this one today.

That’s it. I must get up and plant my sweet peas. Perks must be about it.
