Sanity has returned.

It is Sunday 31st March 2019 and sanity has been restored in the land as we have reverted to BST after months of Greenwich Mean Time, which has plagued many and upset countless peoples metabolism's all over the country. The person or person's unknown, who creeps around twice every year , tampering with mantle clocks, cooker and microwave clocks and numerous other time keeping devices round the home and other places, has visited perhaps for the final time, to restore sanity. It seems that there is a growing move towards keeping our clocks set to BST all year round which may of course upset a few, but will be welcomed by many. Personally, I would advocate keeping the clocks set as they are now and in March of 2020, moving them forward by another hour to create Double BST as was last seen in 1941, creating extra daylight savings but admittedly leading to darker mornings which might be problematic for some. However, on balance the extra ours of daylight 
would be of benefit to the vast majority of people.

For the time being, let us be thankful that we are now in BST and that it could be that the clocks will not change again for the foreseeable future.

Northern Ireland and Brexit. The return of "The Troubles"

Northern Ireland: police attacked in another night of disturbances | Northern Ireland | The Guardian When the "Brexit" debate was still filling our newspapers and our television screens, readers may remember why I had changed my mind since voting to leave at the referendum vote. Apart from the economic arguments, which had become crystal clear after peeling away all the lies and misrepresentations trotted out by Bozo Boris and his "Get Brexit Done" conspirators, there was always the problem of the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Would it be possible to have a border between the European Union and the United Kingdom where people, goods and services could pass freely between the two nations without customs restrictions, tariffs, duties and all the other formalities? Would it be possible to have one part of the United Kingdom treated differently from other parts of the United Kingdom, particularly when Scotland for example had voted overwhe

The Parliamentary Labour Party conspirators are hatching another coup.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/corbyn-labour-leadership-rebel-mps-a7202641.html Labour MPs plan for Corbyn victory  and plot how to confront an emboldened leader Even for the "Independent", the number and use of unnamed anonymous "sources" in this article is quite astonishing. However, amongst all the usual speculative delusion, there is one factor which causes concern to anyone who believes in the Labour Party, its principles and in he democratic process of the Labour movement. It is abundantly clear that elements within the Parliamentary Labour Party, are even now, planning another coup in the event that Jeremy Corbyn should emerge as winner in the current ballot. The failed coup of earlier this year, has now descended into a sham leadership election, because the conspirators still fail to accept the democratic decision of the Labour party membership and cling to

Plemont development or return to nature?

This exceptional location must be sold to the National trust for Jersey, and returned to nature. Any other outcome involving development of the site, can only demonstrate the extent to which greed and self interest have become endemic in Jersey.
