A bright, mainly sunny Bank Holiday, invites all of us, well mainly all, down to the beach for a large ice cream with a flake in the top. As it happens, thousands of other people from the towns or other places all have the same idea so it might be a little crowded. It may be an idea to have the large cod and chips with mushy peas washed down with a very cold coke first, while you wait for the queue at the ice cream kiosk to go down a bit.

Labour should have gained seats at the local elections. As it happens we had a net loss of 82 seats but gained 6 councils.
Not a very good night for the Labour party, but not the "drubbing" that the media are trying to spin it into.

Tom Watson has clearly crossed the line with this latest attention seeking tantrum. Watson who has been associated with the usual suspects who have been trying to dislodge Jeremy Corbyn since he was first elected to the leadership, has become more erratic over recent months and now "storms out of a meeting". He is out of control and should immediately be sacked. He is just a disruptive figure in the Shadow Cabinet and still holds his own leadership ambitions. He should be sacked before he causes even greater damage.

 I shall require a great deal of convincing that the economic collapse in Venezuela and the present conditions, have nothing to do with the crippling and punitive economic sanctions applied by the United States. The sanctions were applied because the Americans did not like the political system of Venezuela and because they wish to bring about regime change. The action of the United States against Venezuela have crippled the country and brought great hardship to the people. The bully boy USA seems to have triumphed 
again. Shame on America and those who support their actions.

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...

Workers face ban on striking .

http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2015/jul/15/trade-unions-conservative-offensive-decades-strikes-labour?CMP=share_btn_fb     Tories launch biggest crackdown on trade unions for 30 years         The Labour party must oppose the continuing assault on ordinary people in this country. Organisation and protests against the excesses of this Conservative government is essential. Should Harriet Harman suggest even partial support for Conservative policies, she is clearly in the wrong party.

Leave the clocks alone!

  https://www.kentonline.co.uk/kent/news/did-you-remember-to-put-clocks-forward-224737/ Sanity returns!!! The clocks have gone forward by one hour and perhaps now I can get some proper sleep, and return to normal in numerous other areas which have been disrupted since 25th October 2020. That pesky little person who steals an hour from my sleep and disrupts my time/body clock for the next 6 months, should be confined to a secure location for ever. Never again should I and thousands like me be disrupted every year and for no apparent reason by an outdated and tenuous notion of "daylight saving". In fact we should probably put another hour at the start of the Summer and then stay on Double British Summer Time (DBST). for the duration. Message for pesky little person "LEAVE THE BLOODY CLOCKS ALONE!"
