So many of the outrageous things the UK government is doing, which seem most inexplicable, can be explained by one simple principle - successive governments over the last 30 years have turned this nation into a tinderbox, the purpose of the

I don't think it's as bad as all that. Personally, I always feel a little prick of national pride when I watch Space X launches and see that Goonhilly Earth Station ( https://www.goonhilly.org/ ) has taken over trac

Muddying the right of appeal with vexatious litigation is a very dark road to go down. I'm sure people in the US are in no mood to take any advice from us here in the UK, having just recently abolished the right to a jury trial.

I know exactly what you mean. But for me there's an even greater emotion here... relief . At a time when everything feels so utterly divided, it's such a relief to see a positive story that everyone can celebrate and feel proud o
