Renewing my British passport - HMPO totally lost the plot and the I lost the will to live!
What a nightmare, and a warning to all of us Brits. I last applied for a new passport 2 years ago via VFS with no hassle. Things have clearly deteriorated since then, as with most public services in the UK. Hope you get this resolved soon. and grateful for any updates. -

Myanmar Resistance Downs Junta Fighter Jet in Sagaing Region Clash
PLA A fighter jet belonging to Myanmar’s military regime was shot down by the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) on Tuesday during fierce fighting near Kan Dauk police station in Pale Township, Sagaing Region, according to the PLA and local sources. The jet is the latest in a string of regime aircraft brought down by resistance groups since the 2021 coup, marking at least the tenth loss of a military plane. PLA spokesperson Daw Ni Ni Kyaw confirmed the downing, saying it occurred around 12:15 pm as the group and allied forces continued their assault on the police station, which began on June 2. The regime responded with repeated airstrikes using fighter jets and Y12 aircraft. A local witness said the resistance used a .50-caliber M2 Browning machine gun to shoot down the warplane, which crashed in a nearby village and exploded on impact, setting buildings and a monastery ablaze. Footage released by the PLA shows wreckage scattered near the burning village and what appears to be the remains of the pilot. While the military confirmed a jet had crashed and caught fire in Pale Township, it attributed the incident to engine failure during a training exercise. This event comes just three weeks after two regime helicopters were downed during clashes with the Kachin Independence Army (KIA) near Bhamo town. On May 20, the KIA used suicide drones and firearms to disable two helicopters transporting troops to the embattled 21st Military Operations Command headquarters. Resistance media released footage of a drone striking a helicopter rotor and later destroying one of the crash-landed aircraft as junta troops attempted recovery operations. Since the 2021 coup, Myanmar’s resistance forces have downed four fighter jets, five helicopters, and one helicopter gunship in armed confrontations across multiple states, including Sagaing, Kachin, Rakhine, Shan, Karen, and Karenni. The growing ability of resistance groups to target and neutralize air assets marks a significant shift in Myanmar’s conflict, weakening the regime’s once-dominant aerial advantage and signaling a deepening of the country’s civil war. -2025-06-11 -

California in Uproar as Newsom Condemns Trump’s Troop Deployment as ‘Deranged Fantasy’
Watching the riots in LA and it's sad. Sad that one side feels justified to assault police officers (using Jan 6 as an excuse for now) and the other side (some) would like to kill the protestors. Clearly, these protests are identical to the BLM protests early on. Started by people (perhaps misguided) against perceived police brutality but infiltrated by thugs and paid instigators. I don't want to harm ANY peaceful protestors but would love to see those blocking freeways, destroying property and committing violence arrested and prosecuted. And I have mixed feelings about the massive ICE raids. Yeah, the ones going after criminal gang members I am all for. And I don't care if they get shipped to some foreign nation whose prison facilities aren't so nice. But, I feel for the ones who are in fact here illegally trying to keep their heads down, earn a living and send some cash home. I wish the issue wasn't so politicized. I do know I watched a team of about 8 guys work in my yard the last two days in 100 degree weather installing a new irrigation system and planting some cacti and an orange tree. Nary a one except the main dude could speak English. I'd bet they don't have papers and Id' bet my costs would have been double if I had to hire American born labor. Sucks that our politicians haven't been better at legally vetting decent people who want to come here and work. Instead, 4 years of an open border flooded us with criminal elements forcing draconian raids and sweeps to clean up the mess. Whatever. Rambling I guess. Good scotch does that. Wish the decent ones could be left alone along with the decent protestors. And I wish the gang bangers and paid violent rioters would all be infested with the fleas of a thousand camels.
