There are some issues I need to sort out just now [they never come in ones] and though they’re not dire, not connected with certain parties having a war at the moment in RL, not connected with the blog, the government or the weather, they still need sorting. I’ll try to post this evening at [...]

There was England’s bid for 2018, yes but have you seen the Australian press? Does this sound familiar? FIFA chiefs stabbed Australia in the back.

Examine the photo and tell me how many you think are female. Of course it’s been going on for years but it was only this year, when I saw the employment area at first hand that it became obvious that there was very real discrimination going on against men and not men on the periphery [...]

Hey, that’s lovely but are we six the only ones? That would be appalling. Please, I ask you all, immediately rip off the logo in my right sidebar, embed it with the url for the campaign and shove it in your sidebar henceforth – this iniquitous ban must be overturned. Thank you.

Patrick points out that they’re all placemen and women and won’t stand up for the country. This is mentioned under the first obstacle.

Rossa comments on the current state of snow in our fair land: The Sun tried to break through the cloud earlier today so I got my camera out and took some shots of the winter wonderland outside my front door: My car is now a black and white Beamer and everything else looks very black [...]

Don’t forget what happened the day after the last time we won a bid for something where Beckham, the PM and the whole crew were putting in the last minute lobbying. If we win, watch carefully tomorrow to see if the PM will be at St Andrews. Update [15:31] England out [15:34] 2018: Russia [15:44] [...]

Brogan is in cloud cuckoo land. There is a strain of political punditry in this country which wilfully and deliberately, it seems, ignores the elephant in the room – the EU. Time and again I go round to blogs which speak as Brogan does, about Cameron and Lansley and whoever actually having the power to [...]

Courtesy of Rossa, this is actually dedicated to my stalker who’s apparently into these things: SINGLE BLACK FEMALE seeks male companionship, ethnicity unimportant.

What a 24 hours. The Cap’n Captain Ranty is giving it away, just when he was getting going. The main contribution he made was in showing us that despite all the spin and the web of deceit they weave about us, we are actually, in law, free men and women and don’t have to do [...]

The leader of the Libertarian Party is Andrew Withers. He was elected to that position and even though I had an altercation with his predecessor who made actionable comments about me and took a moronic stance on the EU Referendum, through his lack of understanding of politics, none of that is important, compared to what [...]

“What I want is men who’ll support me when I’m in the wrong.” [Lord Melbourne, responding to an MP who'd said he'd support Melbourne when he was in the right] That is the problem with collective responsibility. When Cameron parachuted in late candidates in the preselections, he was seeking yes-men. When Sarkozy, Blair and Cameron [...]
