    What's going on in America is beyond a joke and a pantomime. It's seriously concerning.

    Admire his commitment to a cause we all should support. Hope he makes a difference
    I must admit I share his concerns over the way fascism seems to be gaining too much of a foothold these days
    I saw this on twitter recently and it was suggested to keep sharing in case it helped

    Thanks for sharing that. It seems the lessons of the last war are being forgotten. Compassion is being lost and nationalism on the rise.

    The lessons of that war were forgotton the day after that war ended, just like the lessons of the first world war were.
