Writer Ben
I write about aviation, military history, contemporary social themes and occasionally agriculture (Erotic Tractors™️ a speciality). One of the Fallout Triumvirate.
Your sensitivities are not my priorities, and vice versa.

- When people say they want some migrants to integrate more what do they want? More Muslims in the Cotswolds? Ali to wear tweed? Does Terry wanna buy Amjad a pint in Spoons? Mustafa to open a chippy not a kebab house? Can someone please give precise guidance?
- My favourite bit about the noble chippy is that fried fish were introduced by Sephardi diaspora in London and then we teamed up with an Irish potato frier to create Fish and Chips. Its almost as if we integrated too much...
- I've finally decided to attempt to learn Ladino. I'm about to find out how good a teacher Skipper the Younger is...
- With better coffee, doughnuts and pizza too.
- That sinking feeling when you voted for Labour but got Norsefire @benskipper.bsky.social @philipwblood.bsky.social
- Cooper has a history of anti disability/ableism too.
- I would say he was richer than most.

- If you thought the PM’s speech was punchy, his foreword to the immigration white paper says high net migration has done “incalculable damage” to the country. That is a serious shift in tone for a Labour government/party.
- @stevie1666.bsky.social this is what I was referring to buddy. Sick stuff.

- Never has the argument for tri- service policing outside of the chain of command been stronger.
- Immigrants cause incalculable damage eh? Glad the Lord of the Atlas isn't about to hear this rhetoric come from a UK Prime Minister. Sadly the Dowager is. Fecking stare of the UK right now.
- 🧵 Martin Diaz came to the U.S. as a toddler, fleeing cartel violence with his family. They had proof of the danger—a letter from a Michoacán official. He married a U.S. citizen & was advancing his visa. Then ICE showed up at his home in Spokane: no warrant, no ID #OnYourSide VC pslspokane

- I remember when the NRA stated the right to bear arms was essential to fight oppression. Surely now is their time? That's how it works isn't it?

- That's a huge amount of achievements. A very talented lady.
- Don’t actually own a NASA Mars prototype ATV, but if I did, that's where I would park it on Broadway. And that’s how I would lean on it.

- We're back! VE Day, crushing tanks and smashing Fascism... Possibly. The content and work of Fallout may be of interest to @bylinetimes.bsky.social @bylinesnetwork.co.uk .
- 🔥 "The idea of Canada joining the European Union is ambitious, but it follows a certain logic. Canada meets the Copenhagen criteria (rule of law, democracy, market economy) and shares the fundamental values of the EU."
- It does share a border with a European country, so...

- Excellent news.
- An anniversary worth marking. I'm sure we're going to see the very people who have trashed its legacy seek to appropriate WW2 today - so let's remember what was really fought for: peace, a more united Europe, a land fit for heroes (mark 2) and the defeat of fascism.

- They wouldn't want to dent that surely?
- We will see next week when some of us attend Overloon.
- That would be perfect wouldn't it. Failing that I hope the crew at Bovington are feeling zesty.
- You provide the car Ben and I’ll oblige 😂
- What summer gathering is that?
- Muhahahaha in Orca.
