Brisbane was the nearest city when I was growing up in Australia. I started spending time there in 1987, lived there in 1990-91, and in 1993 (a spell out of inner city Sydney chaos). If you were a punk, a freak, queer or black in those days, it wasn't just the yobbos you had to worry about...the cops could give you a serious hiding just for their own amusement...

Fuddle Duddle: Trudeau’s Famous Slip

In 1971, Prime Minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau sparked outrage in Parliament when he was accused of mouthing an obscenity at opposition MPs. When pressed by reporters, he quipped he had simply said 'fuddle duddle'—a playful dodge that instantly became a Canadian political legend. 🇨🇦 #Canada #FuddleDuddle #PierreTrudeau #PoliticalHistory

A quotation from Charles Mackay

The intrigues of unworthy courtiers to gain the favour of still more unworthy kings, or the records of murderous battles and sieges, have been dilated on, and told over and over again, with all the eloquence of style and all the charms of fancy; while the circumstances which have most deeply affected the morals and welfare of the people have been passed over with but slight notice, as dry and dull, and capable of neither warmth nor colouring.

Charles Mackay (1814-1889) Scottish poet, journalist, song writer
Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds, “The South-Sea Bubble” (1841)

🔍🙈 Google played Houdini with political history, making 7 years of EU ads disappear into thin air! 🧙‍♂️✨ Apparently, Google's idea of a political ad ban includes a magic trick of vanishing archives. Who knew digital amnesia was a service? 🤷‍♂️📦

This is a fascinating analysis on the gradual development of medieval thought focusing on particular on the rise of the ascending theory of governance and how mediaeval thought far from being fossilised and an antiquarian provides the genetic link modern notions of democracy and civic rights.
