Hello fine grandkids, how’s things wherever you are?
We are just into September 2025 here on planet earth. The headlines don’t change much – war, death, famine, political lies and greedy rich people. The biggest shame is our lack of work towards any meaningful action regarding the climate crisis. Domestically it’s been a hot dry summer with water supplies – reservoirs etc – drying up and as ever with most crisis in this country it affects the farming community – it matters because they supply the food we need. Our government don’t get it, or more accurately, they do get it but greed and power kick in and get in the way of any serious plans to look at long term actions. I’ve said before if you do see this, have a look at where you are now and look back to see where anything that made a difference changed anything that made a difference!!!!!
When you are late teens, twenties I surely hope so.
We are not short of arseholes, aside from most of us having one each! Our lead politicians in the UK are politically illiterate and talk amongst them selves without communicating with citizens or their issues. UK is suffering from15 years of conservative greed. We now have a Labour government who are stumbling around in the political darkness and societal fog. We shall see, but they should beware that people can’t wait too long before anger hits the streets.
The disgusting people here are any Tory shadow minister – inarticulate speech of the brain – Nigel Farage, some kind of cartoon baddie who is racist and greed led. Labour are led by Starmer who is as feeble as a very feeble person.
Affecting our country too much is president Trump of USA. He is mentally lacking for his role, power crazy and as well as being a mysoginist, a thief, liar and racist he is a bully of his own citizens and this in so called allied partner nations. He is another easily hateable person.
He supports Israel government in murdering Palestinian civilians as well as Hamas terrorists. Why? Greed and glory and attention. In 2025 we had several wars, killing hundreds of thousands of people. Look it up guys, see where we have been. Netanyahu, Israel government leader will be dead by the time you look this stuff up. Like thousands of Palestinian kids, medical staff, journalists, parents, spiritual leaders. Aaaaargh!
Trump is fishing for a Nobel prize. Please look back and see if it happens. If so then we have lost it all!!!
The other ‘you couldn’t make it up’ category is President Putin of Russia, murdered scores of thousands of Ukranian peoples and spending millions on arms, weapons many sold totem by UK.
Yep go figure.
Putin is a de facto murderer yet politicians blow smoke up his backside in exchange for money, power, position and, oh yes, oil!
Having been not so well recently, I’ve watched a lot of TV and football/soccer has not been far away from headlines. If it wasn’t so sick, we could laugh when the headlines indicate highest poverty numbers for years in the UK, then follow up with a single footballer signing up to another club for 100 million pounds and earning 100,000 pounds per week. Sorry it’s mad, mad, mad.
What has brightened up a shambling world is ladies/womens international sport – rugby, football, cricket. Good quality, football maybe not, if different to mens approach, but good and I’ll tell you attitudinally, way above men on every level.
What has been a little grouch, is the so called British media bias toward England and joined to this the pundits inability to be any good at what they’re supposed to do. Surely more than just describe what we have all just seen.
And BBC, sorry but poor show doesn’t hack it. Get a grip.
