     More and more people are beginning to ask – What is multiculturalism? From where I am sitting I think it means to accept all cultures. That is to say, whatever is on the planet and wherever it comes from. So, various degrees of Christianity, various degrees of the Muslim faith, Buddhists, Zionists, Atheists, Lesbians, Homosexuals, Heteros (any left?), and anything in between. The problem though is do any of those actually accept or even agree with each other? The problem with people is this, wherever they may go in the world, they’ll want their own lifestyle. So, loads of Muslims want to live in the same sh*t they come from. Simply, because they are used to it. It is giving a sense of safety. Frankly, the British were exactly the same. Visualise India and other places where the British landed. I don’t need to go into details, we already know them as the Raj. The British brought with them London, except they were unable to construct a new Big Ben. The Dutch, F...

      People like myself look around and wonder where all the intelligent people have gone to. Did we make a mistake? Have they already emigrated to the moon? Has Elon Musk been lying to us? How many rockets has he actually built? Leaving imbecilic people behind? Walking around our once prosperous nation you can see decay all around. It is not bad, to the tune of everyone sleeping in doorways but there is noticeable a distinct degradation of the environment. The carelessness that young people display. The quality of the air we need to breathe. The way developers have gone on using green belt land allowed by uneducated, uncaring public servants. The way elected dwarves keep telling the rest of us how hard they work and need a ten percent rise in earnings. Worse, if they cannot get that reduce the amount earmarked for environmental upkeep. The way they judge allocation of resources. Resources like housing, and social assistance. So, yes, things are not so bad. Eve...

      Anyone figured out yet how this Iranian debacle started and how it sort of ended? It sure was quite the jolly wasn’t it? Did no-one in America, ever think of possible outcomes? Why did the armed forces not object to the half-cooked plans of the POTUS and his incredible administration or at least put in some reasonable alternatives? Although it should have been obvious that the Iranians were in a stronger position than Trump thought. It’s OK to sound upbeat but not as unhinged and iffy as it was. Whatever comes out of his mouth no-one with a bit of a brain will ever understand it. OK, so NATO, he doesn’t want to be a member of it anymore. Fine, it is something I said right at the beginning. When he started sounding off. About Greenland and messing Ukraine about. It was obvious. Just wondering why the esteemed ‘clever’ lawyer Starmer or Rutte didn’t. And if they did why play such a stupid idiot game of ‘Let me kiss your feet”. It sure shows the level of qual...

     It is is somewhat funny to watch things going on politically. The hilarious outbursts of a certain president known as POTUS. I am not sure exactly what it is signifying. It could be POT US. In other words pot the Americans. Interesting. Well, truth is, it is not really funny the way things are going, does any politician think about the possible results of their outbursts or actions? We may well ask. The Iran jolly is taking longer and is more costly the US simpletons thought. Just wondering how the American ordinary Joe thinks about having to pay billions of dollars for the jolly which could have gone on to pay for better healthcare. But the weapons industry doesn't feel the same, they’re happy. Perhaps it was the idea all along. Still, not bad for a man who got elected on not going to put the country in foreign wars or something like it.      On the other hand we have here in good ‘ol Blighty a man who loves burbling on about what he is go...

     Sometimes one reads some very interesting stuff. Like articles from SciTechDaily. This one – When Good Governments Go Bad: History Shows That Societies Collapse When Leaders Undermine Social Contracts.      The title alone is very interesting and you could surmise easily the reason why that happens. When leaders, let’s take two examples, Starmer and Trump from the western sphere of political ‘democracies’, forsake core principles. Now, we might argue over what core principles would be but the most important I believe to be the equal sharing of wealth. Another would be services provided to be fair to all. It is something that has bothered me and thousands of others for quite some time because quite evidently the two principles mentioned have not been working. It probably is the reason why there is so much unrest in our societies. Certainly in Britain the undercurrent is gaining momentum whilst in the States it is beginning. Just listen to news ...

     The question of what Britain has become is shown in the name I have just used. The word Great has disappeared. We are no more than just a small European nation that still pretends it has an empire. Except no-one in the real world knows exactly what it was. Even if some small minority groups feels the urge to protest about slavery we had been busy with, forgetting the whole world was busy with it, and want to pay reparations for actions our forefathers thought was just business, not a single person thinks that you cannot change history. At the same time they will not learn from history so that old mistakes are not being made again. Something which is noticeable throughout the world. Humanity does not learn from previous historical mistakes.      It seems that due to hardships such as going through two world wars and previous ones like Waterloo as well, the present stream of most western politicians reflect an attitude that wrongly wants to ch...
