Are we living in a kleptocracy – yes we are!

As I wrote this piece the toxic adviser of our great leader, plus his mate, was booted out of Number 10 in a cloud of acrimony and fisticuffs. But I am not going down that rabbit hole – yet. Because that actually is a side show. Yes, despite this news,

Brexit – the latest developments

What news now of the last few weeks of negotiation before the end of our transition period on 31 December 2020?  Well, all I can say is that there’s a lot of, he said, she said, they said, going on with one side (the UK) saying on Friday (16th), that’s

Are we in a FUBAR situation?

Since my last post I’ve been saying to myself that I can’t possibly write a response to the government’s stance on Brexit or Covid as there are actions this government has taken that make most sane people do a double take, and in particular I note the corruption of this

The elephant in the room

I have two drafts for this blog, both begun weeks ago, waiting to be finished. They are structured and I have all the evidence and the ideas. On what, you might ask?  On our hopeless government and its incompetence in dealing with the Covid pandemic, of course. With these, as

It’s Boris

Was anyone surprised. No. Although when I watched the result there was Hunt with a smile on his face that looked quite genuine, and then there was Boris in an ill-fitting suit looking his usual scruffy and rumpled self, but slightly solemn. For a moment I thought…..! But no. I’ll come back

Is he the one?  Belief in the age of the unreal.

I started this piece weeks ago when it seemed a total certainty that our very own oaf Emperor and Trump-lookalike, would be crowned the leader of the Conservative Party, and consequently the leader of our nation. I’ve found it difficult to complete this piece as, like 50% of our nation,

Apocalypse Now? No, not yet, because we’re all on holiday

It’s the Easter holidays and the MPs, probably for their own sanity’s sake, are on holiday so there are no dramas to report. Although I will say that, exactly as before, the week we were granted the extension began in high anxiety mode and then fizzled out, with MPs just

The timetable – talk about last minute!

Yes, what is happening? Unbelievably, for a country that is leaving the EU in 20 days we still don’t know how we’re leaving. But next week is a critical week. I’ll give you a run-down of some certainties, of which there are very few. The thing is I haven’t been
