A landmark moment

Boris has always been someone who polarises opinions.

Today will have been no different.

What am I talking about? :https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-49813639

Laura is not exactly known as being a left winger, often friends who are staunch Labourites have highlighted that she is well biased to the right. Personally I think she is more balanced than that.

However, her summary of Boris’ key actions to date is heavy in condemnation.

How long can Boris stay in power?

More to the point, what about Dominic Cummings? Nigel Farage has a clear view on that: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/boris-johnson-news-resign-nigel-farage-parliament-brexit-supreme-court-dominic-cummings-a9117986.html

Amazing times.

It’s entertaining, informative, and regardless of your position essential listening in these turbulent times.

Fascinating viewing

The BBC is world renowned for great content.
Their latest documentary, “The rise of the Nazis” is stunning.
Multiple historians focused on individuals involved in the rise combine to give a superbly well-rounded perspective of this tumultuous period in history.
It’s both stunning yet horrific when you see how easily they took over and destroyed democracy.
Watch it and then look at current history and walk with your eyes wide open.
