Dog whistle

Our government seems to hope we will forget it has been power for fifteen years. Those who have actually wielded the full power of State now seek to persuade us that others instead of them are in fact in control. With no answer to serious questions of the day, they must now resort to simple …

Day trip

Today, I travelled 5,000km, leaving home at 3.50am and arriving back just after 10.00pm. Too far to travel just to pick up a few loaves of bread? Don’t worry, this was just our reward. We had a much more important cargo — our six months guest — successfully handed on to their next host. I …

Sheep

Every shepherd is responsible for his flock. Unfortunately, we have appointed wolves as the shepherd. Nobody is talking about the diabolical miscalculations of these shepherds, which have heaped nothing but destruction on the flock. Ravaged by marauding predators from the outside, they turn back only to be ripped apart by their own. They are right …

Lundan tarn

Lundan has fallen to the Islamic Invasion, they chant without pause. This, though only fifteen percent of London’s population identify as Muslim. Oh, but of course they don’t believe it. Even Rishi Sunak, a practising Hindu, has been likened to the leader of ISIS. And the tubaned Sikhs? Yes, they’re the Taliban. And the black …

The steep path

Simply repeating a lie over and over doesn’t cause it to become true. Engage with the facts and your arguments fall flat. So why waste your time with a life full of misplaced anger and rancour, when you could live a fulfilled life, serving others with compassion and grace? It is easy to hate, but what …
