  • Democrats – fractious and floundering

      The US Democratic Party is floundering faced with a single-minded and enmeshed Republican Party, with no obvious front runners who will appeal to the electorate.‘The party is split between a radicalised younger vote, which is increasingly Maga-like in tactics and tone, and an ageing establishment that is short of ideas.’  The Graham Platner debacle was one indication. A candidate for the Maine Senate he had not been properly vetted, was not a blue-collar candidate of his

  • Lindsey Graham – blown on the political wind

    Lindsey Graham who died suddenly after a trip to Ukraine where he was hopeful that pressure on Russia would end the war was a latter day supporter of Trump as Republican senator for South Carolina. In 2015 mounting his own campaign for the US presidency, he denounced Trump as a “race-baiting, xenophobic religious bigot”; and criticised his role in the January 6 Capitol Hill attack. But he nonetheless became a firm ally and  helped persuade the White House to launch a full-scale

Yet Tuchel was far from impressed. He said “We got lucky.

    The North Node retrogrades into Aquarius on July 27 to stay until March 2028, having been in Pisces since January 2025.  Having to let go the past and be less rigid has been the message of North Node in Pisces, with the necessity of finding faith in what is to come when plans do not work out. Replaying scenarios on the old rules will no longer work as well. North Node in Aquarius for the next 20 months favours activism – finding a cause to promote rather than seeking personal glo

    Ann Widdecombe in her day was an outspoken politician and minister; and latterly became a bestselling novelist and a TV celebrity, gamely appearing on Strictly Come Dancing, Celebrity Big Brother and Have I Got News For You. News of her death was followed by affectionate and favourable obituaries. Then the police admitted they were treating her departure as murder. Of which more will no doubt follow. She was described as having a ‘matronly manner, fluty voice and combative debati

  • Nigel Farage – politics as farce

    Nigel Farage appears to have shot himself in the foot with a raucous declaration of shining innocence being smeared by the ‘deep state’ over a seriously large handout from a criminal crony. Stomping his tiny foot, he resigned and declared a bye- election in which he said the voters would raise him to hero status by beating all comers. The other parties decided not to play his game so he will end up standing against (hopefully) one opponent in comedy candidate Count Binface.  Far

  • World Cup – fouling the beautiful game

    In an act of breathtaking entitlement Trump demanded Fifa to lift the one match suspension of US striker Folarin Balogun after a red card foul. What was worse was Gianni Infantino in craven and immoral response giving in and lifting the ban. Uefa, European football’s governing body, said that intervening to effectively cancel a suspension at a tournament “crossed a red line”.  Of the 189 other red cards at the World Cup, only one other time has a player escaped a suspensio
