Problem in the Middle-East? Not really, just a jolly....

     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 quality, of policy and politicians alike. They are persons of today and cannot think further than seven days. 

    So, what for Iran today? Oh, we all know how America acts, real old ol’ West stuff. Go in, all guns blazing, by the weekend they all going home declaring objectives achieved. When in all honesty all that happened was Americans enjoyed themselves shooting up the gallery. In that respect Starmer was right not to get involved. Just to remind him here, with what was he actually thinking to offer, when he had finished kissing Trump’s feet? Three soldiers? Two to use a rifle and the third to look for available toilets and a kitchen to brew tea? Oh yes, and the Navy. Just get one of the frigates being repaired out to sea quick. We can do repairs as we are sailing. The munitions we need will be sent from Sweden via carrier pigeon to Malta where you can pick them up. By the time we arrive in Cyprus, the place is either flattened or peace negotiations were done. Great, we can all go back home. Except the Iranians closed the Straits. No oil, ah what now Starmer, what now Trump? What objectives were attained? I have no idea. But I heard the tax revenues have risen significantly. Reeves is sniggering, did her phonecall to Trump have the effect? It must have, he went bombing.

    Friends, these are the qualities of the people we voted for to keep the country sound, healthy and prosperous. Sorry, have to wait a minute, just having a coughing fit. Frankly, I am not sure why we worry about these import taxes the POTUS has sprung upon about everybody he has a beef with. The truth seems to be it harms the American consumer far more. In the UK it is the increased cost of oil, in the States they are somewhat shielded because of their own production which as an aside should be a lesson to us here. But even so the price of gas and petrol has gone up everywhere, at least until the Iranians let all the tankers through or Trump let the Russians loose. Watch the news, we will find out sooner rather than later.

Students and drugs, a nasty alliance...

You just won’t think that sensible young people who are at university can believe that taking drugs is good for you. I t can make you dance all night. Indeed it can, you can dance all night to your grave. It is beyond belief that humans, with the brain capacity they have, have this self-destruct button. An article in a national newspaper said, probably in response to the drug deaths in the north-east, that there is a celebrity cult taking drugs like cocaine believing they actually ‘help’ society. Taking coke that is from ‘sustainable sources’. Anyone who takes drugs and I don’t care who they are, have a nut loose in their brains. If you take drugs you are an absolute nutter and don’t deserve to go to university, or perform music or occupy a position in public service . Taking drugs means you are an airhead and cannot be trusted , even with granny’s crockery. I have heard all the usual stuff, alcohol and tobacco are drugs as well. They sure are and can be just as devastat...

Money, money, it's just so funny....Not

Just in case you thought everything was great then you have not heard the latest wonderful news from the US? Their debt ceiling might have to be £30+ trillion dollars? Eh? That is thirty million million million dollars. Excuse me, who is running that show? $30,000,000,000,000,000,000 debt. Well, that puts my own debt with the bank in some perspective. Just wondering what the US banks charge for all of that? It’s just mind boggling. What is more worrying is this – when such a ceiling will collapse, as it will, then what? We are always talking about how wonderful it is to live in a free world but is it really free when we are shackled by such debt? It is not just the US, Europe is just the same, in fact all countries seem to be burdened with debt. So, a good question to ask is who pays for all of that? Well, in a way it is you and me. We might save some money in some sort of a savings account (if we are lucky!) and the savings banks and others will invest that in government bonds hooveri...

There are Judges and then there are British judges...

It must now be quite evident that British judges live in a different world than everyone else. We here apparently judge people, people like the jihadis, possibly Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, you name it there must be hundreds if not thousands of similar people with similar ideas, we judge them on terms that pertain in our present timid, shallow, ‘woke’ society. These people, jihadis or whatever you want to call them are criminals, simple as that. If you cut off somebody’s head that is murder, and in the first degree. I don’t care whether that happens here or there. Helping to hold the knife makes you a n accessory to murder. This is very difficult to understand for UK judges. Sipping the afternoon sherry a bit too much they pick up a Mills and Boon romance novel and swoon over memories of their first fumble under the elm tree on their estates. Then after a few more sherries they remember reading about a land called Utopia and lo and behold their judgement springs forth like ...
