They say that ex-Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson has stirred-up a hornet’s nest by ridiculing the wearing of the ‘full face veil’ burka – what a load of tosh, eh? The anti-Boris crowd, egging-on elements of the sensational press, are making a mockery of what was a sensible and balanced article that Johnson wrote […]
Lunchtime a week ago yesterday brought onto the television screens of the World, the eagerly anticipated and awaited grandiose wedding of Britain’s Prince Harry [33] and American actress Meghan Markle [36], didn’t it? The couple were conferred with the title of ‘Duke and Duchess of Sussex’ by the Queen that very day – only the second […]
A new statue sculptured ‘by a woman’ has been placed and unveiled ‘by a woman’, in the shadow of the Houses of Parliament, and unbelievably it was one of ‘a woman’ – the 1890’s suffragist, a non-militant, [not to be confused with suffragettes who were] campaigner Millicent Fawcet. Now this bronze was placed in […]
Many-many people in Britain will this week have shed a tear. Shed a tear in memory of the 116 young children, of Aberfan who lost their lives 50 years ago in a tragedy beyond comprehension. Little boys and girls who had their future smashed, smothered, and snatched away in a instant of heartbreaking horror. That […]
So far the bulk of the British public have not fiercely turned against Islam despite having been shocked to the core by the savagery of Islamists and their crimes against humanity, the 2005 London bombings [52 people killed, over 700 injured], and indeed the disgusting murder of Lee Rigby two years ago, as […]

Little positive has happened and instead now one […]
The British are world beaters at the elaborate pageantry and pomp of State ceremonies. Year upon year, event after event, they all go swimmingly well, providing glorious spectacle after spectacle. Big public occasions watched in person by amazed thousands, seen on television by mesmerised millions from all around the World, and promulgated & beloved […]
The Islamic faith seems to be out of control, doesn’t it? It has apparently simply become a terrorist organisation, rather than a respected religion don’t you think? It presents itself nowadays as an oppressive intolerant over-powerful force determined to overrun all other religions, take over the world and obliterate all ‘non-believers’, wouldn’t you say? Oh […]
Every year it come around again without fail doesn’t it? Christmas. Most of us dread it of course don’t we? We daren’t admit it though would we, as the stigma of Charles Dickens’ Scrooge would stick to us like glue? It starts very early in the year nowadays. It is supposed to be in December […]
In Britain there is an immense amount of tolerance, isn’t there? We have a very diverse community where race and religion don’t in the most part cause division. Oh yes, we have our brainless bigots of course who tirade against those they see as undesirable fellow citizens – but they are few and far between […]
