I see they’ve taken the rugby union away from the common man. They want a subscription of £100 for a three month tournament season. Maybe in South Wales it will be good for the hospitality sector, but for many people like myself living alone it is not affordable, at this time of financial crisis in every sector, not least my personal finances.
Today the rugby, tomorrow the tennis and the football. And so it goes on.
The Masai are being moved off their land to create a rich man’s playground. Like the Cherokee under Andrew Jackson’s greed for gold when he was in the White House. He sent them on the trail of tears for 1000 miles journey through a bitter winter to invade someone else’s land, and all because a girl had given a white man a love token of a nugget from the river which started U.S. America’s first gold rush. This is Johnny Cash’s telling of that woeful part of U.S. American history. https://youtu.be/aYJSdbBQLfM?si=OWVq_8m_-9Ffhuxp
The dream is simple. Too many people on Earth. We’ll set up a station on Mars and rule them from there. While here, on ground zero, people will fight and kill one another for a mouthful of clean water.

Meanwhile the Labour government plays into the hands of the multinationals by abolishing family run farm holdings. 20% inheritance tax?
Really! Whose side are you on?
The farmers are custodians of the countryside. The supermarkets are guardians only of their profit levels. Mass food production will remove hedgerows, create extensive acres of monoculture and threaten the small remaining wildlife families.
No, I am afraid that is a misguided course of action, if ever there was one in the face of climate disaster and diminishing biodiversity. Time to think again.
