It is a fun world...aliens wouldn't touch it.

     It is so funny – MPs and other law givers or even ministers are upset over how ordinary people talk about them. Well, I think it is funny and at the same time, tragic. Does anyone in America think Trump is a funny guy, someone who is aware of the world? Someone who knows the wheat from the chaff? Anyone? Really? Wow, it makes you wonder what we, ordinary people are like, possibly a bit backward? Listening to these words people like Trump, Putin, or here in the UK, Starmer (now gone, thank the Lord) and what they say, do we mud crawlers, believe them? Listen carefully, you find quickly that what they say is really total nonsense. Generalisations, and said with a face that shows, ‘I know what I’m talking about’. When in fact they know nothing about anything at all. Did Starmer know when he jumped onto the bandwagon of ‘I am determined to stop the boats’. Yeah, so am I but what are you actually planning to do and provide a budget to pay for it? Ah, those words yo...

The world in a mess... really? Surely not...

      Anyone thinking the world looks in a mess? I think it has always been like thast, in many different ways. Except today we all know about it! It is shown in great detail on our televisions. News reports show how the Ukrainians and Russians bomb each other to smithereens and us here are watching the devastation. Even to the extent that some of our youngsters want to emulate it. Here in Wales they love to set fire to the countryside. Why not, it is dry isn’t it? Yet, these are the kids that hear day in, day out how the climate is warming up thanks to CO2. And what do they think is in the billowing smoke of these fires? Us, grown ups have to start thinking about education, parental control and more, because these are the kids that will grow up. Some will even stand for election! Imagine that, can we see some correlation here? What with the standards in our own Parliaments? Not just here, but across the world. How is it possible a creature like Trump can be Pr...

A very hard look at Public Office....

      For anyone with eyes and a brain it should be clear our society is undergoing a tremendous change. Let’s put that in perspective. I have mentioned before about what I call the Softly Softly approach. Keep the public happy and quiet and stay in power to become rich. Then on the other hand there is also something happening which counters it. The AI bubble and the climate change. Added to that enormous political mistakes, like Net-Zero, the inability to get to grips with illegal immigration, and the decision to de-industrialise the nation. We ought to ask, how is all that possible, what is at the bottom of all this. Is there a concentrated effort to change our society? If so, to what? There is, again also something which I have mentioned a few times, the drive to a more centralised state? One would say, no we have the devolved system, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland all have their own parliaments. Have they really. Or is it is a way to bring the idea of cen...

Lovely budget, well done Starmer, now go home!

      If there is anything that will prove our lawgivers are numbo’s and were taught in toddler class until they were eighteen years old, is the attempt to put nearly a hundred asylum seekers in a Shropshire new house build street. On top of that the nearest shop is on a Scottish island and if you need medical assistance you would need to call an air ambulance. This in an area that hasn’t seen an immigrant for some time unless the indigenous people went to see a show in London or Brum. You might ask where the brainpower has gone to from our wonderful government. And if you wanted to know whether these selfsame political wonders liked each other, think of Starmer’s gift to the possible new weirdo Burnham. Starmer quickly put through the Defence review with a wonderful sounding budget of some £50billion but reading the small-print some £5billion needs to come from ‘savings’. Wow, how about that, is he saving by taking money from the bloated social budgets? Are you...

An endless Universe? Ah, maybe...

      An interesting website named NovaPrism came up on my feed. It had an interesting explanation about the Universe. I had always read the Universe was the Big Bang and the matter it created and we see (part of it). But now we are talking about infinite. Space is flat meaning if I started travelling now I could carry on forever. But that sounds a bit silly, so what does it mean? It stated ‘ To understand how this is possible, it helps to separate the universe into two parts. The "observable universe" is the spherical bubble of space visible from Earth. Because the universe is 13.8 billion years old, light has only had that much time to reach telescopes, creating a visible horizon about 93 billion light-years across. This observable bubble is strictly finite, containing a limited number of galaxies. But the observable universe is just the region whose light has reached Earth' . So, the ‘universe’ is what we live in and see. The result of the ‘explosion’ (reall...

To be AI or not to be AI? That's the question...

      The question of what AI will mean for humanity, is one that has no answer. At least not yet. This morning one learns the American supremos have limited access to one of the newest promotions, I think it is called Mythos or something like that. Is someone waking up to the dangers AI actually poses? The way development is going seems great until someone starts thinking – ‘What if this falls in the wrong hands?’ And quite obviously, looking at past human endeavours, developments ALWAYS fall into the wrong hands. It is inevitable. Either they just copy stuff, the Chinese and Japanese were very good at it or the Russians reverse engineered a Super Rolls Royce jet engine thanks to some woolly British politician thinking they were a humanitarians. So, AI will be in the hands who think banking is just for them. The question then is a simple one, how do you combat something like AI? Because in the end that is how it will be. Isaac Asimov wrote about it, years ago b...

Ungovernable? No sir, just duds who rule...

      Reading he good Julia Hartley-Brewer’s penned effort in the Sun newspaper this morning, made me applaud. She has a knack of putting it just the way it is. She was talking about Britain being ‘ungovernable’. And as she said , no- it is not. The reason, and I totally agree, is that we’ve had mediocre duds as Prime Minister. Just have a proper look at the list, Lizzie Truss? I am sitting down with a cool bandage over my head. Boris? He only governed in between abseiling exercises, unfortunately he couldn’t remember what he was supposed to do. Sunak? Not too bad if he only remembered where his loyalties were. The irascible Ms May? Who was that again? Anyone remember her? No? Cameron then, anyone? Ah yes, are we in or out of the EU or should we belong to the United Kingdom. But first can anyone tell him what the United Kingdom is? Please? Well, like the good Julia, it is easy to despair, as I have also said many times, how in all honesty have we sunk so low? Th...
