Imagine if self-serving malevolent people were barred from politics? No I know, it won’t happen.

Brexit was and is in Putin’s interest. He interfered in UK politics primarily through the Tories at first and now it’s through Reform. That interference is still very active. Gill is the tip of a very large iceberg.

I want to apologize to the rest of the world, because electing this guy didn’t just harm us, it sent shockwaves through global democracy.
Thanks to this incompetent government, we’ve managed to export our chaos far beyond our own borders.

My wife’s just had a few days in London with friends and paid £11 for a glass of indifferent rosé in a pub.
Extortionate prices for crap and another reminder, amongst others, of why we don’t live there any more.

Even though an impartial board of enquiry has concluded that the UK government did « too little too late » to protect people from the pandemic, Johnson didn’t even have the dignity to apologise, instead challenging the enquiry on it’s findings. What an utterly worthless human being he is!

« Too little too late ».
I well remember screaming at Johnson on the tv for two weeks after Europe had already put Covid measures in place to protect people.
He should be prosecuted along with all the others in government who supported him.

I’ve got a few days to myself and apart from the usual jobs am binge watching Mortimer and Whitehouse Gone Fishing.

UK inflation down a little to 3.6% but still far too high. Happy to see that here in France it’s fallen to 0.9%.

If you’d like an idea of what the aging process feels like :
I was considered a bit of an expert in computing 50 years ago, especially problem solving.
Now if it doesn’t work when I switch it off and on again I give up.

I may sound like a broken record, but (briefly) watching UK news and reflecting on how much Brexit induced damage has been and is still being done. Brexit is never mentioned though. England in particular in perpetual denial.
