The royal fans who flocked to Windsor to celebrate birth

Amongst the popping champagne corks, the waving flags, the tinfoil balloons, there is much celebration and joy on the streets of Windsor and other places around the country. These are the same people however who will, on their way home, or within the next few weeks or months, pass a shop doorway or other place, where someone is wrapped in a blanket or newspaper and is sleeping rough again. These are the same people who will not even notice the scandal of homeless rough sleepers on our streets and will pass by without even acknowledging the affront to our society. These are the same people who will quaff their champagne and snacks enjoying the vicarious elation surrounding another royal birth. These are the same people who should read this post and feel a sense of shame at their jubilation.

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.

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.

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
