Funny how no one is talking about covid anymore. Never let a good distraction go to waste.

They look like toy wind-up MPs. Even L. Ron Hubbard never achieved such obedience.

Stand up like this for the ambassador for palastine as well

We all want to know why Boris is not kicking Putin's pals out.... Something to do with big donations by any chance.

As a key worker I would warn the Ukranian Ambassador that rounds of applause come extremely cheap from this country, and are quickly forgotten about once the noise has died down.

[juliajaeger]

That was beautiful!!! I wish we would show that same respect here in the U.S. What a beautiful display of humanity and solidarity!

[richardgee]

It's not enough just clapping your hands I appreciate the sentiment but time for action.

[Spungoldenhoney]
