You've mentioned Alton Barnes White Horse, West Kennet Long Barrow and now Windmill Hill.  Those "speed bumps" are Bronze Age barrows 4D, you really shouldn't be driving over them.

Someone posting some bullshit about there being not one black Nobel Laureate...for a shocking half second I thought "that's bad" but then thought "hang on there definitely is". A quick google confirmed there have been 18 black Nobel Laureates. Mostly for Peace, zero in Science...yet.

Trouble is, it's stuff like this that a lot of kids will take as gospel and it will be so far escalated and entrenched into the mindset that they'll not care to seek out the truth.

The people who post this kind of bullshit are creating a form of propaganda designed to divide unsuspecting areas of society. The target remit, "well if it's a counter argument against something I dislike (racism/homophobia/sexism etc) then this must be the truth". It's just as bad as the kind of divisible stuff Trump does.

Someone did a similar thing on the Glastonbury main stage, proclaiming themselves to be the first black headliner. Jay Z or Beyonce maybe. Except, there have been many black headliners - the first being Skunk Anansie, back in the 90's.

It was Stormzy this year but I expected it to be more from someone like Kanye West (or Ye).

As you say there have been tons. Off the top of my bonce, Stevie Wonder and Faithless did in 2010 on the Sunday.

Thinking about the Skunk Anansie thing, I'm sure there were others before SA? So I'm doing nothing this evening and took a look. Weather Report and Black Uhuru headlined some time before SA in 1984. While strictly not all black, Weather Report did have a black member (ooh matron). We can go one better though and I should've realised this because he's a legend; Taj Mahal headlined in both 1987 & 1981

Stormzy said he was the first black British headliner(wrong)

The way the Kurds were stabbed in the back. Fucking disgraceful.

Trump should be ashamed of himself - but he won't be.

Trump has no self awareness or ability to see any failings or indeed downside in anything he says or does. If I could spell narcissist I would say he is one.

This significant change in politics in the last 10 years where it is deemed acceptable to shout loudly “I am right, everyone else is wrong“ and not be held to account is one of the most deplorable aspects of populist politics that doesn’t just mildly annoy, but is undermining society in many countries.

Exhibit A - Trump, Exhibit B, Johnson
