The problem in the UK has been the taxation system ... successive governments have been elected on thd promise of keeping taxes down, when in order to have an equitable standard of living across the board those who benefit from the wealth of the nation the most need to pay more.
A large proportion of the UK population felt disenfranchised and the referendum was the nearest thing we’ve had to a revolution ...
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
I had fervently prayed
that by the time we got back, Brexit would be no more! Alas, no such luck. In fact, not only the usual arguments did not
stop but to them has been added the rights and wrongs of the Strictly
result!! O, for a variety of topic!
However, we’re still
thrilled that we’d been invited to the baptism of my Godson and his Greek wife’s
new baby, who came, worryingly, a little early but is now fine.
They called her
Alkyone, after her mother’s mother. So
unusual and so beautiful!
I have it on good authority
that it’s because of the original Alkyone that we have Halcyon days!
I have a dream that my.. children.. one day..
will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their
character
A bit unclear and
concerned, re. the above. Reminds me of
OH’s late uncle, who, from time to time, was absolutely confused about
everything, including who, exactly, he or anybody else was. However, time will tell.
I heard on the news
today that Corbyn called Mrs May, a ”stupid woman”.
Equally baffled, re.
above. However, raised an Orthodox, I
find most things stated right, but I’ve never heard of the kneeling bit,
although lots of Greeks from Cyprus live in north London, so it may be
something they do.
As for Corbyn, I see him
as the Labour believer in unicorns.

Just back from a short break in Greece.

Incredible!
I saw that Christening post earlier too and didn’t know what to think of it. Rather perplexing.
Re. Corbyn, look who’s talking!

Totally puzzled too.
Re. Corbyn, he denies that he said it, of course. As for Mrs May, we know she’s dancing her way to Brexit.
