This very straight news piece buried deep within the FT never uses words like corruption or insider dealing but every detail is quietly devastating. Why is the FT virtually alone in the UK media in covering this important story?

The United Kingdom, our once Great Ally, maybe the Greatest of them all, is
finally giving serious thought to sending two aircraft carriers to the Middle East.
That's OK, Prime Minister Starmer, we don't need them any longer -- But we will
remember. We don't need people that join Wars after we've already won!

History lesson.

Our once great ally didn't come to our aid until 1917.

Our once great ally didn't come to our aid again until 1941.

Working at my desk at home for most of the afternoon, and all I can hear is the dog snoring and snuffling in her sleep after our wet walk from earlier. Making me smile. Never alone.

The constant troping of Shemima Begum. Never reports her as a child who was trafficked. Never that she was a victim of abuse. Yet the govt. continues to treat her as a terrorist and justifies the Tory removal of her citizenship. Shameful.

But of course first, The Archers saga for 13 minutes and what will happen with George! nothing worse than mild peril I trust.

Looking forward to a perfect evening, cuddling the dog on the sofa, some snacks, a drink and work my way through the Godfather trilogy. Joy! Happy New Year world... x

Wondering if many others find this month a challenge. Not a fan of the christmas season, yet enjoy the weather and the cold and the contrast to summer. In truth, loath the whol nonsense of decorations and the transformation of seasonal music and foods. SO much of it I jut don't get. Hey ho.

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.

They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as β€œthe most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1
