    Yeah #maggie - not voted for by party members, but by MPs - that was the system in those days. Had the 1970s membership had a say there is no way they would've chosen a mere woman over say Enoch Powell

    But direct election by membership rather than MPs - in both major UK parties - has on balance led to more tub-thumping (& less effective) leaders being selected

    Good to see #labour has dramatically reduced the possibility of a #hardLeft leader being chosen in future

  3. Hey #Seattle #HardLeft #Commies #Anarchist #Anarchists #Socialist #Comrades - if any of y’all could use a couple of full sun shrubs, I’d love to give em to ya.

    Pepe Le Pom ornamental pomegranate - fruit isn't edible but neat weird flowers that are attractive to hummingbirds, “supposedly” evergreen but IME it’s deciduous here. Eventually 4'x3' provenwinners.com/plants/punic

    Gold Brian Escalonia - bees like the pink blooms, which look p awesome against the goldy-chartreuse new spring #foliage. Mostly evergreen here IME. Eventually 4'x5'

    I'm keeping the pot the Pom is in, so if you want it I'll wrap up the root ball for ya. Esc is in a re-re-re-used (gallon or so) nursery pot that I *think* is recyclable... assuming any plastic is ever truly recycled... so it's good to go as is.

    In #Phinney.

    *STRICT covid safe pickup only - you be in a mask, I'll be in a mask and I'll bring em to the end of the driveway for you to grab once I've stepped back*
