THe UK a laughing stock? Noooh, really?

Can anyone tell me why the UK has become a laughing stock? The continual shuffling of ministers, it is like a sort of dance. The turfing out of students of paid-for accommodation in order to house migrants. Anything else? Oh yes, apparently according to the Sun Newspaper and that hilarious journo Rod Liddle, we are no longer allowed to sniff goshawks. As he said, he never knew that so he now has to stop an age long hobby of his! I applaud that because I used to sniff chickens and penguins but now prefer eagles. My neighbours sniff blackbirds but have asked the Council for help because they are so difficult to catch. So, my neighbours insist on a grant of £2,000,000 to provide them with housing where it would be easier to catch blackbirds. Yes, this country has gone to the dogs. Too many people sniffing them. By Jove, in fact to be more to the point, is it not time to look at the person who made the complaint about one BBC program with Chris Packham showing nature in all its glory to see whether he or she needs a spell in a psychiatric establishment? As a matter of fact I now believe that 30% or so of our population need psychiatric assessment. Or even a prolonged spell in an institution.Probably including the complete lot of BBC managers.

The other question needing to be asked is Grant Shapps, the proposed new Defence Secretary really up to that job? I am sure he is a nice guy, actually a very nice guy but defence, army and soldiers need someone who is NOT so nice but has a titanium backbone and hammer fists. We don’t need a sharp suited, blue tied, Etonesque lookalike. Expect our world wide reputation to go down some further couple of notches.

Then we have the everlasting problem of what to do with migrants. Furthermore, what are migrants supposed to be? I always thought migrants be unfortunates who managed to escape war-torn areas where their lives in one way or another were threatened. Whether they were alone or with family didn’t matter. But today we see mostly if not completely, young male migrants who are basically looking for a better life. On its own I don’t blame them for trying. But there should be proper channels to do so. Not allow total unregulated influx of human hopefuls who have been told paradise was just 22 miles across the water. These people are not entirely destitute either, nor did they escape a war-torn area.

Whatever the reasons for them to pick up sticks and move to another part of the world, there has to be some sort of control over it. Especially as global warming will make huge areas of the planet uninhabitable in the near future. This will just exacerbate the problem and not just for the UK either. It will be a problem, if not already, for the whole European continent (minus Russia and Belarus). This is one of the reasons why politicians are viewed in such a poor light. They just cannot get to grips with the realities the world throws at us. They think they are doing a good job but basically it is just a bit of tinkering around the edges. It is much like they are the orchestra playing on the Titanic as it was sinking. In short that is the situation we are facing.

Where are the aliens?

  The question and Answer software called ‘Quora’ had some quite interesting debate about aliens. I am bowled over by how many, and some are quite educated, believe in aliens. Particularly that they have been here and not just that, are still here and doing great intelligent things like making crop circles. I have to be honest here and say that yes there are aliens except we will never see or hear them. As probability will tell you that with trillions of galaxies, having billions of stars the likelihood of other life is near to 100%. The problem is that life such as ours on Earth needs to move but in such a way as is possible on Earth. That is to say, a gravity of 1, oxygen to breathe and food of a kind that is digestible. The next thing to consider is movement, meaning star travel. It is pretty clear that life such as on Earth is not really around in our solar system. We might find some microbes but that’s about it . The distances between the star systems even

Is there such a thing as mind-control?

One of my favourite author’s Scott Mariani. Writing explosive stories with the great character he created, Benedict Hope. The latest gung-ho story called The Moscow Cipher actually highlights one of the things that has bothered a lot of people. That of mind-control. I’ve wondered about that as well since even in this country that is a process carried out. It is not a bloody affair as depicted in the book but nevertheless computers, the power of the chip has made it so much easier to influence the minds of the general public. Fake news, little bits of untruths here and there. No hesitation in deluding the general public. Just read, listen and make your mind up. All done in the name of “the truth would harm us all”. But will it? . We have smart phones. With chips that know where we are, what we do and what we say. And yes, it is logged somewhere. We have been rail-roaded into using Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp. Google knows more about you than the taxman or even your partner and that

Is humanity performing euthanasia on itself?

Looking at the happenings in the Middle East I wonder how suddenly Hamas, i.e the de-facto army of the so-called Palestinian state, took it upon themselves to invade Israel. It cannot be a coincidence that Russia needed some pressures, not in Ukraine but somewhere else to take away the limelight on them. W here better than the Middle East. I am virtually certain that one way or another there are political shenanigans afoot. What IS Palestine exactly? I know about Bedouins, Arabs and Jews, are these not all one and the same? Sure, there are different religions but if you look very closely there are great similarities. It is stupid of most of us not to notice but three of the most followed religions are all based on the same precedents. So w here does the term Palestine come from, I might ask. There was the Ottoman empire, and prior to that the Roman. Prior to that Alexander rampaged through the area. Prior to that we had Egyptians, Hittites and God knows what else. Even monkeys held sw
