Family lunch, and my right-leaning uncle was telling me how there is going to be a shake-up in Australian politics with a new, never been seen before, party based on the Magna Carta.

He has not read the Magna Carta. He doesn't know what it is, but he's in full support of it. His understanding is that laws will be wiped clean with every election. And police will make the laws stick.

From what I gathered, no immigration, no government handouts, no taxation, free health care (including dentistry), better quality doctors, better pensions, better buying power, no electronic payments (all cash), return to the gold standard.

He's 83, with cognitive dissonance.

So, what is he actually on about?

Also, can someone please let me know why a 13th century document limiting a kings power on taxation is the answer to modern politics?

TIA

I'm hoping to get some help.

For Christmas Secret Santa, I was gifted an Amazon pencil drawing set that had a white pen. I hadn't used the pen before.

I drew a black ink crow, and thought the white ink pen would be good to make it pop. It is. But, the white ink is raised/textured, while the black isn't. It's made the drawing seem... weird.

I was thinking of going over the black with a similar raised ink pen, but my local art supply shop couldn't help.

The white pen is like a jelly pen. Nothing fancy, clear plastic, no brand name.

Could someone kindly suggest a pen?
