This could be an exhortation for that post-prandial moment - Christmas Dinner has been consumed, the family is gathered around the hearth (well, those that still have one), mellow feelings of satisfaction and togetherness suffuse the atmosphere, and everyone makes due allowance for everyone else's faults and foibles.
In many families this will be a traditional time to hand out and undo the Christmas presents, wanted and unwanted, appreciated and unappreciated, but nevertheless welcomed with gratitude for their generosity - not necessarily in terms of price paid, but in time thoughtfully taken, for time is the ultimate arbiter of value in this world.
It's rare, but sometimes someone has the opportunity to give something of such vast value to so many that the mind recoils in surprise - indeed marvels in amazement that not only were they able to accomplish it with such deceptive ease, but that nobody actually had to pay anything for it!
Perhaps all it needed was the chutzpah to get away with it ...
Sir Keir / Rachel Reeves / Mel Stride / Nigel Farage take note.
Mistakes Were Not Made?

"Mistake" is an ambiguous word. On the one hand it can reflect a happenstance where the effect is unwanted but was not intended, on the other hand it may indicate that the action was intended but that the result was unwanted. Unhappily, some events such as "yes I thought that hitting the cricket ball out of the field was a good idea, but I hadn't reckoned with it smashing a window or hitting a passer-by on the head" might be considered a "mistake" on both counts.
However, deliberately throwing the cricket ball out of the ground at the head of a passer-by would not normally be regarded as a mistake, as the result would be clearly intended.
So we could recognise an intermediate state where hitting the ball out of the ground may avoid damage to windows and heads most of the time, but not all the time, so may be considered deliberately reckless, and thus culpable.
So we may transpose the argument to a different situation, and ask whether recommending a novel vaccination that had just been developed "at warp speed", for application to an age-group that was demonstrably at negligible statistical risk of serious ill-health from the target disease, would qualify as a mere "mistake"?
Actually, it's worse than that, because it was allegedly done without supporting advice from the responsible regulatory body that such a recommendation would be justified.
How long before such revelations as these will soon end up before a jury?

With governments around the world in crisis, how will the clashes between countries / power blocks evolve?
The aspects to this are economic, and political/military. Now that money-printing nears exhaustion, what will transpire?
Will governments go to war to impose a command economy, feeding the war in place of the aspirations of their people? How that would turn out is best not tested, but may be inevitable.
The Middle East is pivotal, and showing no signs of settling down.

Ivor Cummins and Dr Jacob Nordangard discuss the ideologies that have shaped our history since good Queen Beth and her spymaster John Dee.
Are today's events not but continuation of a centuries old movement?
Religions, rituals, dogma, secret societies, freemasons ... it's not what you believe that matters, it's what they believed that counts.
Some hold similar beliefs today, and who is to say they are wrong, in the dawning age of ontology where physics is based upon consciousness?

Ukraine / Syria centre stage, and President Putin setting out his analysis.
There's much power-play going on behind closed doors, largely unknowable. The only thing obvious is that there is no going back to the status quo ante.
And what exactly is "Greater Turkey"?
First up: Pepe Escobar
Then Scott Ritter at 61 minutes.
