Across the Pond
No, not Amelia who I was surprised to learn has moved into the Marvelverse as Nebula. To be fair there’s a lot of makeup but I should have been paying closer attention. This is a take on the state of play in the snap British Parliamentary elections. Should even a middle case scenario of losses …
