Good morning everyone.

Last weeks scare regarding Megan and Harry being sent to live "somewhere in Africa" seems to have been dispelled, at least for the time being. It now seems that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will take up residence in California. Unless they are actually doing some proper work in "The Golden State", I hope that they are taken off the civil list so that we do not have to fund their life choice.

The nauseating Daily Mail is at it again. A headline this week, which I will not even bother to reproduce here, screams out in disgusting and repulsive bias without any acknowledgement to the factual basis of their "story". Spewing out their usual smears and embellished distortions about Hamas, the IRA, Hezbollah and the rest, the Mail condemns itself with ample justification, for the closure of a "newspaper," which again abuses 10 fold, the privilege of "freedom of the press" and the right to free speech. Not for the first time, and probably not the last unless they are stopped, the Mail provides a rationale for those who argue that when the media, abuse their powers and position within society, they forfeit the rights associated with a free press. There is a vast difference between reporting, even brutally, that which is true and reporting no more than distortion, lies and embellished innuendo, to promote a political bias. What the Mail glaringly omits from its narrative of course, is the fact that a number of other politicians have also refused the invitation to attend the invitation the State Banquet for Trump in June. The invitation has been declined not as a "snub" to the Queen but as a direct statement to Trump, the racist, hypocrite and misogynist, who has lied and deceived his way around the world from Korea to Israel and Mexico to Venezuela. This view of Trump is clearly shared by many who have already declined the invitation and thousands who have not been invited. Trump is a dangerous two faced liar. It should not come as any surprise that the Daily Mail should endorse him and his visit. Trump is not welcome in this country. The Mail is not welcome as a newspaper on the shelves of our newsagents, or on the internet.

Mercedes 1st and 2nd in Baku with Ferrari coming in 3rd. Is this another Hamilton F1 Championship? Just 1 point behind the other Mercedes driver, team mate Bottas, There are Hamilton's most successful tracks still to come. Let us hope that there are no "team orders" to spoil the remaining races and Hamilton chances of taking another world title.

In an act of "Political correctness" gone completely mad, it seems to have been decided that ships of the Royal Navy are to become "gender neutral". We are no longer to refer to ships as "she" or "her" but must use the word "it". 
May God Bless it and all who sail in it". Complete lunacy.

It seems to have cooled down again.I hope that our summer has not gone already !

Have a nice week.

Enough of this hysterical nonsense

  http://style.uk.msn.com/royal-baby/how-will-the-royal-baby-look-as-he-grows-up Media generated hysteria.                           This is too much. For the last 36 hours (thought it seems more like 36 days) there has been wall to wall news coverage, media and television comment and reporting, with Sky News taking first prize for frenzied minute by minute reporting from the Palace, the hospital, from a village somewhere in England, from the studio and anywhere else that Burley, Botting and company could stick a microphone into some obscure "celebrity's" face and ask for yet another banal quote. All this galvanising the mass hysteria of some elements of the public, (who the media would have you believe is the reaction of "the whole world",) with their flag waving, dancing, singing and cheering over what is after all, no more than a woman having a bab...

A perverse and rather sinister media obsession to discredit, smear and undermine Jeremy Corbyn

http://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/venezuela-jeremy-corbyn-blasted-for-not-condemning-president-maduro-a3606156.html#commentsDiv Venezuela: Jeremy Corbyn blasted for not condemning socialist President Nicolas Maduro as violent conflict escalates There is a perverse and rather sinister obsesseion with the media and particularly television "interveiwers", in seeking to secure from Jeremy Corbyn a "condemnation" of some person or organisation or event. This time it is connected with events in Venezuela and the actions of President Nicolas Maduro and the bloody crackdown on protests against the result of last weeks poll which inaugurated a constituent assembly . The media "stories" and the interrogation by the television interviewers, are as subtle as a sledgehammer being nothing more than a variation on the "Have you stopped beating your wife yet?" question, which so many repoters use in order for them to make themselves appear very ...
