    To me, collectors are a bit strange. They buy books they'll never read, wine they'll never drink, toys they'll never play with.

    What difference does that make? For 150 years Britain exported people around the globe as part of Empire. I wonder how many of them were wanted in the countries they moved to? Is it so unreasonable for others to want to try to better their conditions and share in the wealth that Empire and colonialism brought to the UK (and the west in general)?


    It's not in the least unreasonable for others to want to better their conditions, but they should do it by legal means.

    Toothpaste flavours! I got tempted by a different brand this week, according to the box, it’s supposed to be fresh mint. Smells like Germolene, for those old enough to remember it. I’m sure there was also a brand of haemorrhoid cream with a similar scent. Absolutely disgusting, but I’ll have to use it until I can buy an alternative. Back to the tried and tested version, I’m afraid. What a waste of money.

    In Europe and large parts of Asia the population is rapidly ageing. Within the next few decades the absolute totals will fall, in several countries they can expect population totals to halve. In this scenario, unless there is significantly more robotic working, we shall have to expect massive international migration if living standards are not to plummet. There’ll be a huge diaspora out of Africa.
