Read MoreA State of War Again for the Longest, Deadliest Conflict in the Middle East & The Way Ahead

Read MoreThe BREXIT Drag: UK Labour (a Lost Cause) UK Conservatives (a Wrong Cause) UK LibDems (a Wasted Cause) – Good Luck Great Britain (sorry I meant to say…..UK)

Read MoreA BREXIT Nugget: How Credible can Our Commitment be to the EU
With the latest episode of shambolic developments in Parliament where Labour “alternative” BREXIT deal was rejected by the government and they are now signalling “potential” support to a motion calling for a People’s Vote the question then becomes this; if we are to continue membership in the EU by default […]
