  • Meanwhile Suella Braverman’s father used to run concentration camps in Kenya. Her family’s business is literally running British concentration camps in Africa, and the core goal of the Tory party in the last couple years has been to reestablish that business, all funded by the taxpayer.

    And that’s before we touch on the point that the Rwanda deal is two way. The UK will accept “vulnerable refugees” in exchange for every small boat migrant we send over there.

    The taxpayer pays to house them until they can be sent over. The taxpayer pays to send them over. The taxpayer pays to set up the infrastructure over there. The taxpayer pays to send over vulnerable refugees in return. The taxpayer pays to accommodate those refugees (who are far less productive than the ones we send out). Private businesses - particularly those outside the UK tax domain - profit.

    Yeah I’m all for that. However deposit schemes are also proven very effective at reducing waste on the floor. People will even pick up other peoples’ litter if they can get money back for it.

    It does wind me up that this is all painted as “think of the children!!” when it won’t do much to stop children getting and using vapes, but at least it should address disposable devices that should never have been made as disposable.

    You have to disable https only I think.

    Why “Snaprails”?

    • A number of years ago I needed a name for an internet account and picked the name of the park near my house as it was unlikely to have been used elsewhere.
    • Later I registered it as my domain name and 20-odd years later I’m still attached to it.
    • The park and surrounding housing areas were once the grounds of a large house and are now a public open space called Snaprails Park.
    • The gate lodge to the house still stands at what is now the entrance to the park, although for a while it was unoccupied, vandalised, and looked like it might not survive it has now been re-occupied and refurbished into a home again.
