The recent protest this week at the Snooker World Championships offers yet another example of how protest by some has become dangerous to our society and exhibit all the hallmarks of psychopathy as opposed to public conscience. I was brought up to be respectful and tolerant of others. To value a liberal democracy where the […]

Any donatioms welcome as always. Absolutely useless. Selfish. Greedy. Corrupt. Spineless. Stupid. Lying scum. These aren’t just the words we reserve for journalists after Covid. They are also the words we use to describe, on the whole, those who represent us in Parliament. I’m not here to argue the case for the current house. I’m […]

Almost two years to the day I published Part 4 of what I called ‘The Age of Entitlement’. A series of detailed pieces that outlined and predicted the pain we are now seeing writ large.

Be honest, that statement is true. Since elected there have been more than a few moments where he’s forgotten where he is, said something you can’t understand and even fallen over more than once.

But I would change one […]

A Failure In Outcome Why effective goals matter To succeed at anything you need a target. A goal. An objective. A direction of travel. Goals are incredibly important. They provide the logical framework from which everything else flows. Goals are not in themselves a guarantee of success. For example, just because you have decided to […]

What Covid, I think, has revealed is that we now live in a dangerous age. The Age of Entitlement.
