Brexit Briefing: Michael Gove.

-






Watch your backs!! Michael Gove has returned  to the the building. (He of 'the short shift dress worn with knee high boots' description of Trump's aide) and the knife in the back of Boris of course.

Jeremy Hunt (typo) is retaining his position as Unhealthy Secretary.

Damian Green is back to prove that 'The Push the Pensioner Down the Stairs Policy' does not work in all cases.

We now hope for a 'soft Brexit' although the government has been banging on about a 'hard Brexit' despite the fact that now we all know what Brexit actually means, we want a 'put Brexit in the bin Brexit'

Joining us for the negotiations is a party which is anti-gay, anti LGBT, anti-abortion, anti-women's rights, terrorists, and climate change deniers.

You really couldn't make it up.

History will recoil at the idiocy of 2016/7.

Brexshit.

Progress is not Inevitable.

  After Mr Trump claimed victory over Kamala Harris, Mr Sadiq Khan, the London Mayor, said he understands, " many Londoners will be anxious" and " fearful about what it will mean for democracy and for women's rights." " The lesson of today is that progress is not inevitable." "But asserting our progressive values is more important than ever- re-committing to building a world where racism and hatred is rejected, the fundamental rights of women and girls are upheld, and where we continue to tackle the crisis of climate change head on." Well, I couldn't have put it any better myself, so I painted a picture.  The feeling of the morning after, the disappointment, the bewilderment, the worry, are all reminiscent of the Brexit vote. Yet. there is a difference. It could simply be that I'm older, world weary maybe? I look at the world as if I am not in it, I look at people and wonder who they are, where do they get their beliefs, what do they ...

Welcome 2025

I would like to welcome everyone who reads this blog. I don't know who you are but my stats show me that you are spread across, France, Iran, Singapore, Hong Kong, Switzerland, Russia, the US and the UK. I would love to hear from you, wherever you are. As my life progresses so my every day activities change. A lot of my time now is spent looking after my elderly father. He is eighty eight and a half ( this is how he describes his age) and is in reasonable health although his mobility is severely limited. Almost without realising it, I have become his main carer. He can no longer drive, walk any distance and cannot manage stairs very well, his knees are very painful and his bones creak. Yet, he's quite happy. As long as he can have his fire blazing and the television on, is fed and watered with various beverages and is allowed to moan endlessly about the government, then he's content. One might presume that dad and I have always had a close and loving relationship and my loo...

  I have always loved the Greek myths, this is my interpretation of Persephone and the pomegranate seeds. At the moment I am reading, 'Mythos' by Stephen Fry,  but I also have  'The Greek Myths' by Robert Graves on my desk. Stephen Fry is much easier to read and is quite fun. Anyone interested but not after a degree would be wise to choose Fry. I actually painted this picture a long time ago and I still like looking at it, which is unusual for me as I am prone to 'improve' my art work which is sometimes a good idea and sometimes not, for some reason Persephone has remained original. At the moment Persephone is 'above ground' and thoroughly enjoying herself with her mother, Demeter. The six pomegranate seeds in the painting represent the six months of the year that are spring and summer, or the six months of the year that are autumn and winter. You'll have to read up on Greek mythology for the full story. Maybe it's my love of the myths that keeps...
