To divert your attention away from the disaster that 'Brexit' has become, the Daily Mail has emblazoned this news on their online health page: Eating-egg-day-reduces-risk-stroke-25.html A bunch of decidedly dodgy statistics is always a good fall-back strategy when you are running out of other...

As if the late 20th century wasn't bad enough, in this second decade of the 21st century, under tory mis-government, we have seen news of thousands of deaths, perhaps even tens of thousands, directly attributable to government policy. The same people responsible for those deaths are currently...

There is something wrong about this story from the BBC news web page. If we are to believe the proven liar, Tony B-liar, that he knew nothing about the Abdul Hakim Belhaj rendition, then who actually did know? MI6 and the other divisions of the security services are answerable to somebody...

I rather like this piece from Michael Sheen describing how conservative government went to war on the working class: Tom

Such faith!.....I'm stunned but not surprised, if you know what I mean. My American friends keep me appraised of what is happening over the pond and these two images reflect a reality that appears a lot less attractive than our Trump-loving, fascist politicians would have us believe: Do...

The fundamental values of the two camps are miles apart. While there is no doubt that a large hard-core of 'Brexidiots' are so deeply entrenched in their racist/fascist views that no logical argument is ever likely to change them, there are millions of other leave voters who would now change...

That has suddenly become clearer and perhaps some of the 'Bexidiots' will pull their heads out of the sand and get real about what is about to befall the UK quite soon. Tom

This beastly woman, seen posing for the camera, is viewed, apparently, as a rising star at the tory broadcasting corporation. It's worth reading up on her background but here, Craig Murray points out one or two things about her and the people surrounding her...

I think it's always worth reminding ourselves exactly of the tactics being employed by this tory apology for a government. 'Brexit' or no 'Brexit', these multi-millionaires occupying the government front bench have emancipated themselves from all the norms of civilised democracy and decency...

I'm with Gubbins though not at the price in the link. The Zefal Cyclops is ok and very cheap to buy. Tom

Peter Oborne, well-respected journalist, has examined Jeremy Corbyn's political fitness on the matter of Britain's foreign policy and comes up with a startlingly clear verdict: Tom

This extract from the work of Aldous Huxley seems particularly relevant today when one attempts to encapsulate the concerns regarding the destiny of the nation and the machinations of the tory propaganda industry. After witnessing yesterday's events, we are simply one day closer to crashing out...

Theresa May has been loading the HofL with newly-appointed, true-blue, members in a cynical attempt to improve her chances of pushing through her perverse, 'any deal will do' agenda, in the upper chamber. It has come to light that the stupid woman, who has repeatedly warned against voting for...

My overriding memory of yesterday's big event is that it turned out to be a good game of football but Jose Mourinho will recognise that a couple of his big-money stars really aren't delivering for the team. Chelsea, on the other hand, played to their strengths and kept their shape with everyone...

It has been reported that Leonard Finch who grew up and began cycling as a youngster in Walthamstow, had died in a crash in Suffolk. I have to confess that I had never heard of the man but the BBC news article describes him as 'inspirational'. Others may be more familiar than me with Mr...

This Israeli chat-show host has an opinion about what is happening to the Palestinians and he is not frightened to air it! Tom

This article from The Irish Times reflects the current position of the UN and its perception by the Israelis: https://www.irishtimes.com/news/world/middle-east/israel-will-not-co-operate-with-un-human-rights-inquiry-1.3500709?mode=amp Tom

Nothing more than posturing by another in a long line of spokespersons for the toothless UN! Here is the list of all the post-WW2 Secretaries - General of the UN. They all made occasional noises similar to the current incumbent but nothing has ever been achieved in settling the middle-east...

With the Skripal affair in mind, choreographed by the chief liar Prime Minister and her closest accomplices, can we have faith in our intelligence services or should we view the 'father of the bride' farce as simply a coincidence?;) Tom

If ever an example of why the people of Europe need the EU, it is in the matter of air pollution. After previous warnings, only three states have made sufficient improvement in the matter of air quality while half a dozen others including the UK have failed in that regard...
