Good morning everyone.
Alan Turing |
"Alan
Turing's
law",
is a long overdue piece of legislation which has
taken 64 years to
almost reach the statute books, for
government to acknowledge the gross injustice of convictions and
punishments handed down to Turing and others, under the Criminal law
amendment act of 1885.
On Friday
(21st October) Sam
Gyimah the Conservative MP for East Surrey and government minister
filibustered his own legislation to "talk out" the
amendments to the Policing
and Crime bill
which would have introduced this reform.
Sam Gyimah MP |
Sam
Gyimah is a reprehensible and unprincipled example of an MP bringing
the whole House into disrepute.
The whole story is in today’s paper under the headings "Policing
and Crime bill to incorporate "Alan Turing law" and "Sam
Gyimah MP, filibusters his own legislation to introduce "Alan
Turing's law".
Brendan Cole |
While
on the subject of "Strictly Come Dancing" (again) Brendan
Cole has been struck down with a "lung infection" which has
prevented him from appearing on the show. Reports of his "death"
appearing in some sections of the social media are greatly
exaggerated.
The 40-year-old
dancer
said that
he was "horrified & bemused" by the report.
Ed Balls in Strictly Come Dancing |
Ed
Balls, one of the "Celeb" (?) contestants on the show, has
problems other than being, (according to many critics, viewers, and
assorted other opinions) consistently the worst dancer by far and who
should have been eliminated weeks ago, has more troubles to add to
his
difficulties. It seems that Ed is being left out by the younger
contestants who go off to Camden
or Central London
when the show or rehearsals have finished at around 11:00 pm while
the "older" contestants wander off home for their Cocoa
drinking chocolate and their pyjamas. Poor old Ed has to be up early
in the mornings.
The
NHS is crumbling under the weight of chronic disease. This is largely
driven by diet and lifestyle factors.

As
well as lifestyle,
we
should also be looking at the amount of preservatives, additives and
other assorted "nasties" that manufactures pump into all
sorts of food. We can choose what to eat and drink, but we have no
control over what the manufactures and producers augment them with.
Legislation is implemented to control sugar and salt content of food
and we should work towards legislation to control food additives.
Even the American people are at a loss to understand |
On
Tuesday November 8th, less than 16 days from now, the American people
will go into their polling booth's and place their "x" or
whatever other method of showing their preference may be in operation
in their particular State, for the next President of the United
States.
Of the 6 candidates in the poll, it is almost certain that either
Trump with the strange coiffure,
stranger finger gestures
and questionable past,
or Clinton with the manic
facial contortions, shrill almost hysterical rantings, and
questionable past, will become the next
person
who the American Secret Service refer to as POTUS.
At least after November 8th, we shall be spared the endless coverage
of the "Presidential Campaign" which seems to have be going
on for the last 12 months, and the appalling
slanging matches labelled "Presidential Debates", (which I
hasten to add I have only seen on the News Channels as that is the
predominant news they seem to report) so favoured by Sky News and
"their sister Channel Fox News". The thing that I am
totally at a loss to understand,
is how from a nation of some 320
million
people, these two unstable
politicians
have emerged as the only
choices for the role of "Leaders of the Free World". The
xenophobic sex predator,
or the belligerent
interventionist,
give
a whole new meaning to the words "what an appalling choice".
It
is cold, but it is getting warmer or maybe not depending on which
television channel you may be watching and whether their seaweed is
more accurate than the oppositions seaweed.
Have
a nice week
