On this day

27th of February 1933 the Reichstag burned and gave way to the Ermächtigungsgesetz which allowed Hitler to reign more or less uncontrolled.

On this in 1900 the British Labour Party was founded. Ramsay MacDonald became secretary.

Wonder what he and they would have made of Jeremy Corbyn.

On this day in 1946 UK doctors mounted a campaign to oppose the introduction of a National Health Service.

30 years ago Sergio Leone of Spaghetti Western Fame died.

An 'edict of toleration' is a declaration, made by a government or ruler and states, that members of a given religion will not be persecuted for engaging in their religious practices and traditions. The edict implies tacit acceptance of the religion rather than its endorsement by the ruling power.

Did you have anything worthwhile offering, with the exception of poking sticks at me? 😉
