No CommentsSomeone messaged me the other day to let me know that the now-legendary (once languishing) Lucy Connolly had begun a Substack (thanks J!). Intrigued, I clicked on the link... only to find I had a pre-emptive block! I've never made any direct attempts at communication with Ms Connolly, so I find the block to be […]

No CommentsImagine the scene: You are 35 years old and your life lies in tatters around you. After a short-lived and tumultuous marriage, your wife has left you, taking your child with her. You lost your job some time ago, and debts are spiralling out of control. With no money or job, you're forced to live […]

No CommentsIt's come to my attention recently that, due to the apparently over-the-proverbial-puncturing-board nature of some of my articles (Charlie Kirk in particular), some individuals have taken to circulating some rather - shall we say - creative commentary relating to my supposed personal history, all with the aim of "proving" that I am some sort of […]

No CommentsApart from, “I like your hat, is it real fur, where did you get it?” (thanks, no, it was a present), the question I am most frequently asked remains the one in the title… It’s usually put to me online, so I can’t completely accurately discern tone, but I imagine a mocking, scoffing one, followed […]

No CommentsWhen I was at school, my French teacher, Mrs. Mealor, had a bit of a problem with controlling the class, as seems to be an occupational hazard for the tutelage of the Gallic dialect (maybe it's the melodic, lyrical nature of the language, as it seems German teachers have no such problems...). When various threats […]

No CommentsIt is no great revelation that life was a lot easier in the '90s, but one rather overlooked advantage of existing at that time was how much easier it was to watch a good film. You just waited until 9pm on Friday or Saturday night, and there'd be something entertaining and scintillating and well worth […]

No CommentsOne of the most instructive exercises I've ever undertaken in understanding how the mainstream media really works came via writing a letter of complaint to the Daily Mail in April 2019. My letter read as follows: Dear Sirs, I read an article in your online newspaper today entitled 'Research scientist, 28, reveals her horror at […]

No CommentsIn what should have been one of major scoops of the century, Alex Kriel from the Thinking Coalition exposed a few days ago that the UK has become a de facto dictatorship. Very quietly, and with no pomp, ceremony, or even the briefest of mentions on page 37 of the Swindon Observer, the UK government […]

No CommentsIn a sort-of sequel to my last article on cancer, I reprise an article from 2023 that delved more deeply into the true causes of, and cures to, poor health. The article has been slightly amended and updated with a new section at the end.... The subject of health has been on my mind a […]

No CommentsLast October, I attended the funeral of a friend of mine. He wasn’t a very close friend, but I had got to know him reasonably well during the “Covid” debacle, about which we had similar beliefs, and we attended several of the same events, protests, and demos. In 2023, my friend - who was unvaccinated […]
