London attack – you couldn’t make it up
We now know that the London knifeman was 28-year-old Usman Khan. (Any relation to London Mayor Sadiq Khan?) Mr Khan, that’s Usman not Sadiq, was well-known to the police. He was arrested with eight other men in 2012 after plotting to bomb the London Stock […]

There have been four major football disasters in Europe in the last 49 years – Ibrox 1971 (fans crushed) 66 dead, Heysel 1985 (fans fighting) 39 dead, Bradford 1985 (fire) 56 dead and Hillsborough 1989 (fans fighting) 96 dead. All of them involved British football fans and, curiously, Liverpool fans have been involved […]

I believe the first lesson in any weapons training course is something like:
“Never look down the barrel of your own AK47 wondering where the bullet is – you might find it”.

If we were stupid enough to believe the UK mainstream media, we’d think that the Democrats had a strong case for impeachment and that Trump was toast.
The worst offender in the “get Trump” witch-hunt has, of course, been the BBC, especially a dreadful fake news programme called something like “After 100 Days” […]

I’m not sure who made this video. It’s clearly from Australia and features a cartoon version of a Sky News Australia TV presenter who has frequently dared question the great Climate Change religious cult.
The video is only about two minutes long – two minutes of absolute delight.
It should be played in […]

One of the biggest battlegrounds in the upcoming election is, of course, the NHS. In this truth-lite world in which we live, the NHS is above and beyond criticism and reproach and so all politicians desperately promise to pour ever more tens of billions into the black hole that is our NHS – […]

I don’t have any good stories this weekend. So I’ve ‘borrowed’ and adapted the stuff below from someone else’s blog. I suspect they probably ‘borrowed’ it from some other person’s blog who probably ‘borrowed’ it from yet another blog and so on and so forth. The blogging world is a brutal place.

I must admit, I don’t really understand what the Democrats are up to by trying, yet again, to impeach Trump. But anyone following the UK mainstream media would be led to believe that Trump had committed some awful crime.

Biden did what they’re accusing Trump […]

Hopefully readers all know how George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four starts:
This prepares us for Doublethink where the Party, run by Big Brother, has decreed that words mean the opposite of what they say. And so the book also has:

Our irrational fears
Let’s start with a dictionary definition – a definition of the word “phobia” (which can be used as a word or a suffix). A phobia is an extreme or irrational fear of or aversion to something”.
Now let’s look yet again at the chart I often use in my blog. […]
