So here’s the ‘deal’ for tariffs. England gets to incur 10% on all goods imported to America, because we’ve been ripped off for so long and cheated and it should be 19.7%, based on the refusal to accept chlorinated chickens and toxic Texas beef and the fact that they impose a 20% tax on all – Read More-
Marine le Penn is the leader of the French National Front. Whatever exalted title they give their neo-nazi party these days, it’s the ‘national front’. But written in French. Obviously. Whilst engaged as a member of the European Parliament (where failed politicians tend to end up) she basically stole money from the EU to fund – Read More-
When Justin Welby was… elevated?, promoted?, ascended?, raised on the high alter of Christianity to a table so high he sat with just God and the Pope for company!!!, I thought: what a nob.

I wanted to drive from age 2. They wouldn’t let me. Bastards. I had to wait til I was 14. Because my brother’s mate, also-Richard, was given a van for work when he was 17 and he took me to a little airdrome in Romford which had been converted into a faux road system for – Read More-

Ok, so 70, for some reason, has become the latest… thing. Everyone’s turning 70, or thereabouts, so you get articles like this one, showing you what to do so that when you approach that terribly awful number of years, you’re not just still alive, like with a tube up your nose and a walking frame – Read More-
I’ve found a great and unquestionable difference between Americans and English people. And it is that we, the British, tend to grow up. With time. Over years. As you’re supposed to. We also develop an intrinsic and instinctual understanding of age-appropriate behaviour and responses. Whereas Americans, on the other hand, tend towards stupidity and retain – Read More-
Mel and I sponsor a local cultural event: the Proms at St. Judes. We do every year. It’s a series of musical concerts; classical, jazz, some pop/rock, in all manner of styles, over a two week summer period at ‘our church’. The one we might go to if we: a. Were Christians, b. Went to – Read More-
The difficulties with young men and boys has become so great that they’ve wheeled out Gareth Southgate to solve it. Like he solved the ‘how to win a World Cup problem’ during his tenure as England football manager. But he is a really nice bloke. The problem is that boys are ‘lost’. They want to – Read More-
