Theresa May unveils Brexit speech 

How reassuring it is to learn of cabinet unity and to see all the ministers emerging from yesterdays meeting solidly behind the Prime Minister. This display of government harmony and unification, was clearly demonstrated as the assembled ministers strolled off afterwards, almost arm in arm into the sunhine flooding Downing Street.The usual suspects in todays press are unanimous in their praise for Theresa May and the way in which she has unified the government and the cabinet behind her keynote speech to be delivered later today in Florence.

We may all rest comfortably and releived in the knowledge as reported, that Theresa May and her camp have united with Boris Johnson and his camp and we may now look forward to a wonderful deal with our European colleagues as we march forward behind a new, revitalised Prime Minister who is clearly in charge and in control of the situation.

(You may detect a degree of sarcasm in this post. The sarcasm is very much intended)

Would it be possible to have one part of the United Kingdom treated differently from other parts of the United Kingdom, particularly when Scotland for example had voted overwhe

However, amongst all the usual speculative delusion, there is one factor which causes concern to anyone who believes in the Labour Party, its principles and in he democratic process of the Labour movement. It is abundantly clear that elements within the Parliamentary Labour Party, are even now, planning another coup in the event that Jeremy Corbyn should emerge as winner in the current ballot. The failed coup of earlier this year, has now descended into a sham leadership election, because the conspirators still fail to accept the democratic decision of the Labour party membership and cling to

Plemont development or return to nature?

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-jersey- A date has been set for a public inquiry into plans for Plemont Headland. This exceptional location must be sold to the National trust for Jersey, and returned to nature. Any other outcome involving development of the site, can only demonstrate the extent to which greed and self interest have become endemic in Jersey.
