Is Nigel a compulsive liar, a cheat, a narcissist, a sociopath, a buffoon, a bully, a fraud, a self-aggrandizing conman, as well as being a self-deluded fool? 🥥 <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/NigelFarage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NigelFarage</a>, <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Trump</a>, <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/BritishIsles" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BritishIsles</a>, <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/PoliticsUK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PoliticsUK</a>, <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/PoliticsUS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PoliticsUS</a>, <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Fascists" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fascists</a>, <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Fools" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fools</a>, <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/PoorChoices" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PoorChoices</a>, <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/TuckersBalls" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TuckersBalls</a>

Jonathan Emmesedi<a href="https://mastodon.world/@statisticsworld" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@statisticsworld</a> I can understand why so many Irish use "these islands" rather than "the British Isles".Perhaps the UK and Irish governments could agree on a new geographical designation.My suggestion: Islands of the North Atlantic.I'm sure some pedants would object that some of these islands are not really in the Atlantic, but I think we could live with that.I'm also sure Jacob Rees Mogg, the Daily Mail, and GB News would denounce such a change. In my book, that's all the more reason to go ahead.I can imagine a ceremony taking place to celebrate the new name taking place on the island of IONA... <a href="https://c.im/tags/Toponyms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Toponyms</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/BritishIsles" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BritishIsles</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/TheseIslands" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TheseIslands</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Iona" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Iona</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/IslandsOfTheNorthAtlantic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#IslandsOfTheNorthAtlantic</a>

RAHstoryJust thinking about how 5-10 years ago this story of a white British man with <a href="https://toot.community/tags/African" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#African</a> DNA, linked to the world's first known woman, blew everyone's minds......But also about how we have now physical evidence of people of African lineage living in the <a href="https://toot.community/tags/BritishIsles" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BritishIsles</a> in the 7th century.

I think it's highly dependent on whom you follow and what hashtags are of interest to you.
