It seems that, similar to a child or an ostrich, the POTUS believes if you cannot see them, problems will simply go away. In his remarks during a Monday White House Cabinet […]
It’s the most unusual Royal Ascot in the event’s 250-plus year history. Because of the COVID-19 lockdown, the most famous Flat race meeting in the world will this week be taking place for the first time behind closed doors. While unfortunately, we can’t be there in person, we can still watch the action on TV – and hopefully back a few winners. There are no fewer […]
MOSCOW (Sputnik) – Russia’s news conglomeration Rossiya Segodnya and media juggernaut RT are leaders in outreach and innovation with internet audiences, Russian deputy minister of digital development, communications and mass media Alexei Volin said in an interview published Monday. “I always say with pride that the professional standards of our media are very high. For example, if we talk about Rossiya Segodnya, also known as RIA […]
People are asking: where does this end? The list of monuments and emblems slated for removal in the US and Europe is a daunting, ever-expanding one. Some are labelled as glorifying racism, others for venerating war, imperialism and colonialism. Statues to Christopher Columbus and Confederate leaders in the US have been toppled this week, so too have landmark effigies in Britain, Belgium, and other European countries. […]
Donald Trump’s indulgence in conspiracy theories is running amok. The latest is his speculation that a 75-year-old man who had his skull split open by police was a “provocateur”. The man in question, Martin Gugino, was shoved to the ground by police officers after he approached them openly, without threat and in broad daylight during a public protest in Buffalo, New York state. He fell backwards, […]
The United States seems hopelessly riven with division, as the mass protests over the police killing of African-American man George Floyd reveal. Protesters are calling for police forces accused of systematic racism to be defunded and disbanded. While opponents – many of whom seem to be supporters of President Trump – are calling for a tough law-and-order response to what they view as rioters and subversives. The sharp tensions have […]

Boris has declared the next front in his ‘war’ against Covid-19 is obesity and I’m backing him 100 percent. The Prime Minister’s dice with death and time spent in intensive care has evidently changed his mind-set when it comes to intervening in public health. Like me, years ago, he saw initiatives like the sugar tax as part of the Nanny state and he was dead against […]
