Good morning everyone

| Titanic. |
RMS
Titanic sank in the North Atlantic Ocean in the early morning of 15
April 1912, after colliding with an iceberg during her maiden voyage
from Southampton, UK, to New York City, US. Around 1500 passengers
and crew, were lost with the ship.
For
those lost and those survivors who have since passed away. R I P

Donald
Trump, that’s the President of the United States for anyone who had
not heard of him yet, appointed a new Press Secretary to handle the
media conferences in the White House and to be the interface between
the press and the White House. It seems that the appointed person is
another of Trump's less fortunate decisions with gaffes and goofs
(and the odd untruth along the way), the new man is an embarrassment
to everyone, not least of all to himself. There
is not enough room in Spicer's mouth for another foot, and yet he
finds enough space for more stupidity.
On
top of his Hitler comments he reveals that the American goal is to
destabilise Syria. Which we already knew, but it is comforting to
have the Presidents spokesperson confirm the awful fact.
Come
back Donald Rumsfeld, at least you were funny.

Boris
has not had a very good week, First, he failed to get the rest of the
G7 on board to impose additional sanctions on Russia and then at the
UN he was again isolated (apart from the United States and France
that is) in a similar quest and even Theresa May distanced herself
from his remarks. John
McDonnell
added his observation saying that Boris
Johnson is a liability for Britain.
 |
McDonnell is being kind to the
former "Have I got News for You" Chair and panellist
Boris
Johnson is far more than a liability for Britain, he is an
unmitigated disaster
and should have remained with HIGNFY as the butt
of
Paul Merton's barbed humour.

The
investigations into Conservative election expenses spending is now
more than 12 months long and shows little sign of being resolved.
This
saga will drag on and on, being kicked into the long grass by an
establishment and judiciary who do not wish to pursue the allegations
of election "irregularities" against named conservative
MP's . They fear that sitting MP's may be removed from office (or
even worse) thus destroying the governments already slim majority.

the complete item at:"The
"investigations" into the Conservative election expenses
drags on and on".

Meanwhile,
back in Jersey or perhaps more accurately at some point between
Elizabeth Terminal St Helier and Poole Ferry port. Condor Liberation
has engine problems. The fast
ferry services to and from the UK and Guernsey have been disrupted over the bank holiday weekend after a fault with one
of the Liberation’s engines.
The
problem was discovered on Friday night and led to a delayed arrival
in Poole.
Saturday’s
sailing times then had to be amended to ensure that the crew got
enough rest hours before starting work again.
Those
delays, which have been compounded by tides, were also due to affect
sailings scheduled for Sunday and Monday.
All
sailings have been delayed by around five-and-a-half hours.
Engine
and other problems, every
year since in went into service. DéjÃ
vu.

Weather
forecasting seems to be a very inexact science. The weather
predictions vary according to which channel you choose to watch and
even then which weather person is doing the forecast. Ten degree temperature variations from day to
day, rain, sun, frost, fog and even snow and all within the space of
24 hours. I shall stick with my trusty piece of seaweed. Roll on
summer.
Have
a nice week
