Just spamming wheels.
This whole community thing seems a bit unclear but since we've got ten posts so far all trying to sell one or other of two wheels, surely this doesn't count as adding anything. -

I once worked in Winchester Conservative club- no-one would believe me if I told some of the stories from that place.
csb, in this instance as a request?
(The Shaldon place was actually holding a beer festival at the time. They had this lovely cask lager that St Austell made, supposedly this was its first time out of Cornwall although... publican boasts..)

I went to the Catford Conservative Club and had a very nice burger and then brownie avec mon Julie.
I once (twice ok guv I admit it) found that the Shaldon Conservative Association was the only place in the village showing the spurs game..
... and was pleasantly surprised by their welcoming clientele and CAMRA-satisfying range of cask ale.

Vis. - the relative worthiness of different charitable causes.

Some people trying to donate to breast cancer research managed to sent money to Unicef. Or, adopt a polar bear.

To add to EEI, snotter etc : -
Today is not proof capitalism works. Today is proof that some people (a small percent) of the world can have a decent enough life when hundreds of years of opposition can wear down just a few parts of the capitalist apparatus.
No welfare state? No NHS? No free, mandatory state education? That would be proper capitalism. Survival of the fittest.

Yeah, I'm not saying all charities should get tax funding, but you shouldn't be against charities that fundraise for stuff you're not bothered about, just don't give them money. Don't give a shit about donkey cruelty, fair enough, but someone does and wants to help them, good for them, I hope they find people that also like donkeys and get some cash off them for carrots and such.
Yeah that's what I'm saying, the donkeys can be helped by whoever wants to help them (I actually quite like donkeys, but it doesn't change the point) - but hospices are too important to be left to the "third sector". I'm not against the donkeys, I'm against governments/politics using a thriving charity provision as an excuse not to provide stuff that should be a minimum right.
Cf. food banks. In modern, rich, Britain, they just shouldn't need to exist.
