An algorithm is a device for solving problems. Finding solutions. It will follow a set of rules to find the best way to solve that problem. Simple. You wanna drive from Luton to Manchester (though no idea why you would want to), an algorithm will work out distances, the speed of the roads, factor in – Read More-
We all love that song. When the last night of the proms cries out ‘Rule Britannia!!!’, waving their little Union Jack flags, and holding their hearts, showing their collective pride in our national glory. Guaranteed to bring tears to the eyes of… well, certainly Nigel Farage, but to a lesser degree to the eyes of – Read More-
This beautiful picture shows a group of devout Christians, joined together as they harness the power of Jesus into their lives. Because Jesus died to save us. And if ever a group of people needed saving, you’re looking at ‘em. Because the alternative view of this photo is that it’s a group of hypocritical sycophants – Read More-
You know when you hear something really horrible and it puts your mind in a total spin. Like someone’s disease; a tsunami in Rochdale; plague in Nairobi; stock market crash in Tangiers, war in Iran. At first you deny it could be possible, then you look for what can be done to make it right, – Read More-
Listen, there’s only so much time and space and energy I can devote to international wars of potentially catastrophic consequences, to deaths, murders, tyrants and inept Prime Ministers unable to send our nation’s one and only boat over to save the Cypriots from invasion or devastation.

He’s referring to Churchill’s famous war-time leadership, strength and natural understanding of the bigger picture, rather than sweating over the minutiae, the legalities and the nonsense from his – Read More-
I love contemplating my navel. I’m a ‘liberal’. I believe in negotiated peace in all worlds, wherever possible. And I’m a believer of ‘talking’. Therefore I am the problem. Because I’m symptomatic of the British malaise, exemplified beautifully by our Prime Minister, in which problems are addressed by navel contemplation, by wishing for unrealistic outcomes, – Read More-
Today is not only beautiful and sunny, but is officially, the first ‘zero day’ of the year. That’s what I call days when the hourly weather forecast for north London (I really don’t care about the rest of it) is just a series of zeros in the rain column. And why do I care? Am – Read More-
I’m very concerned as to whether yesterday’s attack on Iran was ‘legal’. I’m a very ‘legal’ person. Unfortunately, I’m a different person behind the wheel of a car or, possibly more so, on the saddle of my e-bike. But whilst I’m stationary, I’m very legal. And I need to know that, should our government get – Read More-
We’re at war. Well, not Britain, exactly, we’ve sort of ‘bowed out’ of any specific involvement, including using our Middle East bases.
