The UK government has not done enough to prevent another Grenfell style disaster. They appear to leave this in the not as important as Brexit basket, and unfortunately for the citizens of this once proud country can expect the same kind of disregard for Human Rights in all (in)actions by this horribly ineffective Government. They …

The Fall of Great Britain
The Government is failing. There seem to be two types of Government: overactive or inactive. The UK Government is inactive, devoid of progress and it is not evolving a better world but one that has progressively been failing. The increase of violence in London, the increase of the homeless, the treatment of the victims of …
Syria Strike
Trump, Macron and May strike targets in Syria and avoid hitting Russian targets. The fog of war instantly rises, the Russians say the majority of missiles were shot down and the Americans say each one hit their targets. If they degrade Bashir al Assad's ability to use chemical weapons, then they have achieved a goal. …
Theresa May
Why did the UK choose to be governed into an inevitable compromise instead of taking up the gauntlet and reforming the EU? The trouble with her leadership is that the negotiations are a waste of time. Of course, Britain has to pay its dues before it departs. Of course, the rights of citizens cannot be …
Changes
Why did Trump win? Why did the UK vote to leave the EU? Is 2016 s year of change? It is, and that is the reason, people are voting for change. It is a stage of life - they need risk and danger. They need exposure to the new.
Racism in UK
The levels of racism stimulated and seemingly legitimised by "Brexit" have risen to levels that can only be described as irrational criminality. The latest report, maybe not as awful as some of the terrible violence toward "immigrants" by awful idiots, highlights now some people seem to prefer the behaviour of Nazis to civilisation.
Labour and the Opposition
Labour is not finished, it is simply not Labour. It is a party no longer in touch with its roots due to the simple fact that the 172 MPs, to get in behind a leader with socialist values, would have to change their religion. Will they remain steadfast to their own new gods, or will …

The British Disaster
The British had a disaster in its political life. Although the leaving of the EU is the most traumatic and in my mind stupid decision, the respect for democratic choice should be honoured with more than an afterthought. There should be an examination of the vote and the lies told to the electorate and at …
Labour and Brand
Maybe now that faux-socially-aware Cameron has fallen, the Labour party will have some cachet in the occupation of the middle ground? Corbyn has been a refreshing nuisance, a politician who actually is convinced his point of view aligns with the voters and it seems that is correct. It is the 174 MPs who have no-confidence …
