Very very sad to hear of the death of Charles Aznavour a great French icon. He’s been one of my favourite French singers and as a matter of fact – strangely enough – just today before knowing this I was playing one of his very famous tunes from his song […]

Let me suggest to all members of Congress that they should treat Dr. Ford NOT only with Respect – that’s easy – but follow her example when it comes to Duty to Country, cause if they had an iota of such a sense of Duty America would not be in […]

It’s great to see the EU push back on the current U.S. administrations effort to kill the Iran deal, this by devising a system to evade the U.S. sanctions. In my view this is a step in the right direction because there are many other agenda items particularly on Trade […]

Sweden’s prime minister Stefan Lofven will have to stand down after losing the support of parliament; is this a cue for Britain. This indeed is an approach worth considering with a temporary unity government to take us through a 2nd Referendum where parties take up their own view on the […]
Read More Yesterday we here of Labour’s John McDonnell with a statement about the options for a 2nd Referendum – link below, and later that same day Keir Starmer kicks in with a contradictory message about that same subject – suggesting Option to Remain would be considered within a 2nd Referendum. Now […]

On Fox news the U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina shared his thoughts on the sexual misconduct allegations against Brett Kavanaugh saying; “What am I supposed to do, go ahead and ruin this guy’s life based on an accusation?” “I’m just being honest.

In a recent statement by Theresa May she asks the EU to show respect. Here’s the pickle you face (and we face in extension); respect is something you earn Theresa May and for many in this country you have not achieved that objective in 2 years mis-managing the most consequential […]

Now here’s an interesting proposition – OK I think so anyway though some would consider it on the extreme side of the spectrum – but here it is; “if” this political shenanigans continues to drive the BREXIT process in the UK, I would actually consider it best to terminate the […]

It’s truly incredible to see how politics is now being used to distort history either through Selective Facts or better yet Creative Facts. You’d be forgiven to think this only happens in places like the Middle East and it has and continues to happen to this day. What is mind […]

What really caught my attention in this interview is how we summed up the main take away from his new book about Trump “Fear” which is this; “A War on Truth”. Come to think of it this is exactly […]

Finally some light in a deep tunnel of the U.S. Republican party. I came across Senator Ben Sasse of Minnesota during the Brett Kavanaugh hearings with a message/observations not heard before within the GOP – not that I’ve seen anway. It’s certainly someone that is making a lot of sense and […]
