It's got a reasonable cover of "Positively 4th Street" as a B-Side, mind

Nazanin Nour @NazaninNour Exposing the Islamic Republic's crimes does not make you a war monger. Being against war does not make you a regime supporter.

This is a message a lot of yβall need to hear, so Iβll keep saying it in as many different ways as I can

This is the future liberals want
The Thomas Tunnock Award was presented to Warrant Officer 1 Neil Aitken. Sponsored by Sir Boyd Tunnock, the grandson of Thomas Tunnock and owner of Tunnockβs confectionery, this award is given to those who provided the greatest influence on morale on board.
It's a grim business.
But, if you work hard to improve the morale of your crew, you get awarded a box of Tunnock's Teacakes
(I'm not sure if the USN has an equivalent)
This sounds similar to (but not the same as) how Railtrack was brought back into public ownership. The advantage is that the water companies are more vertically integrated, so we'd be closer to "Great British Water" than "Network Pipes"
If The War Queer is John Hurt, then we should be able to cross reference a few others

If C&D are Aqua, this is their "Turn Back Time".
I first saw that on the Danny Baker quiz "Bygones". For some reason that is a strong teenage memory
Not that I'm against the concept, remember watching the Ur example on Windmill one Sunday lunchtime

No, it's not a Spitfire, that's the joke. I'm mad me. Messerschmitt Bf 109E-3 known as 'White 1' of the 1. Staffel of JG 76. This aircraft was captured by the French on 22 November 1939 after Feldwebel Karl Hier was forced down after combat between Hornsburg and Bitche. Hier force-landed 'White 1' at Goersdorf, near Woerth and the aircraft was soon repaired and evaluated by the French at the Centre d' Essais en Vol at Orleans-Bricy. This aircraft was then given to the RAF at Amiens in May 1940, where it was flown by Flying Officer Eric Brown of No.1 Squadron
Happy 90th Birthday to the Supermarine Spitfire, first flight today in 1936
