The leaking fest

I am really quite glad to read about the forward looking reports about how our government will develop into a new style of supportive leadership. The hustle and buzz of the leadership contest grips the nation. Luckily we have gotten superb candidates as prospective Conservative Party leaders and prime minister candidates. Once the press found…

Old v. new

That's progress I suppose; all the people who live in Tower Hamlets around those high-rise new blocks and in the high-tech environment constantly post on social media, stating how much they love their new environments. Yet, I see those historical small old houses living people, who are in corners of low development, who constantly protest…

Clumsy mistakes

Noone can accuse the British for ousting people for clumsy mistakes. We have accepted all horroundes mistakes that Boris Johnson made, from the letterbox ladies to the Care homes. Yet Harpers is an American publication and published a letter about censorship and Freedom of Speech. During my time at the High Court, I suffered the…

Virus kills democracy

The Washington Post reports that Hungarian populist Orban has stopped democracy and replaced it with unlimited powers. Whilst Boris Johnson had no problems proroging parliament early, due to the virus, this time around. I think Johnson's emergency powers stretch to two years. Yet, under political arguments alone Boris Johnson could not prorogue parliament in favour…

self-preservation planet

Is this how the planet itself reacts to earth warming? The Corona virus certainly has nutralised carbon emissions in China because the closing down of production and travel has cleared the air there. Nature has always created deadly viruses, which humans try to fight. As soon as we have one vaccine, we get another new…

Baftas celebrate the world

Only watched the replay of the Baftas this morning because last night I watched Vera, another non white male production with a very sensible and down to earth and not even slim woman in the lead role. Baftas was great and the Parasite winner didn't even speak English for the acceptance speech. Hopefully all those…
