The Chair of the Board of Pricks Delivers: A Fairy Tale, Hi Ho Hi Ho Hi Ho!!!
The announcement that Hamas, in agreement with the Dark House, have said that it will start a process of decommissioning if the IDF retreats to the pre-October 7th border. Israel, in response, as expected, said nothing, even though Trump implied that his mate and fellow narcissist Netanyahu was delighted with the deal. What we do…

For one day only at the MAC: The Yawn.
On the 25th of June 2026, I attended The Future of These Islands: Preparing for Change, a shindig organised by the SDLP. Let me start by saying I went in with low expectations, and they were fully met. The crowd were largely old Humeite SDLP members who, as expected, waxed lyrical about the opening two…

Where are you, Keir? I’m Behind David’s Shield
The stabbing of two British Jews is clearly a hate crime, and the perpetrator, Essa Suleiman, must be held to account under the law and condemned by any right-thinking citizen. The BBC has covered this tragedy extensively and today reported on the Prime Minister’s speech and lecture on anti-Semitism to a broad spectrum of organisations…

Is this the new symbol for oppression and ethnic cleansing?
We as a species recognise the horrors of the Holocaust and the unjustifiable and brutal attack which resulted in the killing of 1200 Israeli people on October 7th, 2023. I grew up in a family where my father agreed with the setup of the Jewish state of Israel but questioned Israel’s ethnic cleansing in what…

Gaza: Where’s that?
The first phase of the so-called Trump peace plan came into effect on October 10, 2025. This ceasefire included the return of all hostages by Hamas, dead or alive, and the withdrawal of the IDF to within a yellow buffer line. Hamas have delivered on their part of the ceasefire agreement, the IDF have retreated…

It’s clear, Keir: Back to the day job
If the current cohort of Labour MPs have not realised that the current leader of their party is leading them to political oblivion, you have less foresight than an ostrich with its head in the sand. Starmer’s close advisors, such as McSweeney, Ingham, and Driver, are politically inept but seem to have the ability to…

Board of Pricks
In Davos, Donald Trump announced the setting up of the Board of Peace, of which he will be the Chair. The announcement was equivalent to Darth Vader replacing António Guterres as Secretary General of the UN. The board is set up fulfill the second phase of Trump’s Middle East peace plan, but has morphed into…

The French used Madame Guillotine; you have got the 25th Amendment.
Let’s start with something depressing: he, being Donald J Trump, has 3 more years of his presidency unless an act of God intervenes. I do not believe in an interventionist God or, for that matter, in a God; however, 90% of deluded white evangelical Christians will be praying hard for him. Here are some reasons,…

HANUKKAH VIOLATED
Apologies, I promised I wouldn’t write another blog until the start of 2026 On Sunday, the 14th of December, two gunmen, father and son, killed 15 Jews who were at a festival on Bondi Beach celebrating Hanukkah. Is this antisemitism? Of course, it is, so this terror attack must be unreservedly condemned. A 43-year-old man…

Apologies, My End-of-Year Rant 2025
Once again, another embarrassing and tragic year for our species has passed. Firstly, let us start off with the genocide in Gaza, where the death toll passed 70,000, which includes 20,000 children and not yet counted the many thousands who remain under 50,000 tonnes of rubble. We have a ceasefire where all the October 7…
