Albert Einstein was asked how he thought that World War 3 would be fought. He said that he didn’t know but that he knew how World War 4 would be fought – with sticks and stones.

“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I’m not sure about the universe”
– Albert Einstein

Corona-minus
China has closed and so will the USA. Ireland has closed schools and banned large gatherings, Italy is in the process of closing everything. Meanwhile, Spain has also closed its schools and banned some more stuff. Here in the United Kingdom, unlike Johny Foreigner, we have the rather jolly CheltenhamRead More The post Corona-minus first […]
Brexit to where?
The attempted Brexit is a prime example of the saying ‘A Camel is a Horse designed by a Committee’. We were sold the promise of a graceful and sleek thoroughbred ready to jump out of the starting gate but what we have instead is a broken-down old camel withRead More The post Brexit to […]
Wise Brexit words.
It is very surprising that so many mistakes have been made during our negotiations to exit the European Union, when you consider how many ‘experts’ we have on the subject – and I am not including any politicians in that statement. Today, the media big boys are all very wiseRead More The post Wise Brexit […]
It was Cameron wot done it!
There is a very important question which no-one is asking: “Why did David Cameron’s government do nothing about Britain’s Exit from the European Union?” All that Cameron managed to achieve was several months in a very fetching hard hat/high- viz jacket combo, doom-mongering whilst being ably assisted by his sidekickRead More The post It was […]
Government Strategies For A Dead Horse
I have been studying the decision-making and initiative delivery record of Theresa May’s government and as far as I can see, she manages by delivering statements of intent , plus a very clever device which appears to be problem-solving action but in fact, is totally meaningless. It begins with threeRead More The post Government Strategies […]
The. Management.
Remember Hale and Pace when they were funny? This isn’t about them – but it is about Management, Organisation and Decision Making – with maybe a quick nod to Leadership. The context? The ramshackle mélange of lawyers, doctors, local government employees, lecturers, teachers, journalists, farmers, political organisers and city typesRead More The post The. Management. […]
Tokenism in the Cabinet
Without sounding disingenuous or racist, I was very disappointed that Mrs May chose her new Home Secretary with an all-too-obvious reference to the Dulux Autumn Shades Colour Chart. Sajid Javid is only average but of course, he does have the advantage of being of Pakistani extraction. He was quite atRead More The post Tokenism in […]
(Untitled)
Kim Philby achieved the professional distinction of being ordered to catch himself. Theresa May is the only politician to have achieved the same status through her fumbling of the Windrush mess. The only difference is that non-one knew about Philby but everyone knows that Mrs May has been the rootRead More The post http://spygun.com/richard-ruzyllo/15796 first […]
Are you 100% sure that the Russians are lying?
Many (including several of the United Kingdom’s most senior Government Ministers) may be surprised to hear that Новичо́к or as we say ‘Novichok’ is NOT the name of a substance. The word itself means ‘New Kid on the Block’, ‘New Guy’ or even ‘Newcomer’. ‘Novichok’ refers to a series ofRead More The post Are you […]
Organisational perverts.
Power, authority, legitimacy, trust and dependence are the five base ingredients and starting point for creating exactly the right environment, or recipe, for sexual exploitation of the vulnerable to take place. It is no coincidence therefore that the hot beds of child molestation and sexual exploitation are to be foundRead More The post Organisational perverts. […]
