Had anyone else heard of Mandelson before last week?

I vaaaaaguely remembered Charles Kirk when he got shot.

Yes, I was struck by this too, that not a single soul in the room said anything in support or re-asked the question. Her professionalism was exemplary. Thump’s behaviour was disgusting. A childish bully elevated way above the ditch that he & his family crawled out of. ☹️

"My Polish-German godmother asked me, as a kid, "who would you hide."

I didn't get the question. And 6-year old me wasn't ready for Holocaust with grandma. But it comes back to me from time to time.

Who would you hide. Who would you stake your wealth and life on to keep from undeserved suffering."
