It Is Not The End Of The World, But…

U.S. President Donald Trump at the 101st

It is a major hammer-blow to the ideas of freedom, liberty, tolerance and globalised trade. All the underpinnings of a globalised economy, all the underpinnings of increased prosperity, peace and understanding, are under attack and have been since 2008.  They are under attack from both the far-left and the far-right of the political spectrum.  Trump is a strange mixture of both. The financial crisis gave birth to the myth that globalisation, capitalism and liberalism were bad for the ordinary person.  Sure growth had a significant knock-back and many jobs were lost but this should not detract from the fact that … Continued

The End Of The End Of The World Hole

By

Back in December 2012 when those wise scribes who believe everything on the internet, but nothing from the likes of government, scientists, etc, were predicting the end of the world I was convinced that nothing would happen. Imagine my shock the next day when I found this hole on a grass verge near where I live.  Clearly a lucky escape from some kind of meteorite.

Do you see any Goldenfry?  … Continued

My End Of World Prediction

By

It seems a lot of people are following some made up group of people called the Myans who predict that the world will end in 2012. Well I can tell you they are wrong. It will end on 4th July 2032. I have believed this for 20 years. I know the truth. My long-term weather forecasts are pretty good so there is surely no reason not to believe me? I can also predict, with some accuracy that I will be rather trashed on Saturday 10th July 2010 when I attend Cocoon In The Park, in Leeds (buy your tickets!). Who … Continued
