Self-opinionated (in a good way) polymath. All views and RT my own fault, not institutional.

@StevenIsserlis But Steven, why such snobbishness against him - much now abated, but you still hear snide comments...?

Rachmaninov b otd (OS) 1873. Genius! A master of structure, speaking to us in a unique language that all can understand (if they choose). Steeped in the past, but utterly new; profoundly emotional, never sentimental; and with a radiance that at times borders on the mystical.

Utterly hopeless, spineless, barren 'leadership'

The Archbishop of Canterbury has said that legalising DIY abortions up to the point of birth is “legally, morally, and practically complex”. It isn’t ‘complex’. It’s WRONG. Killing a 39 week old baby is morally indefensible. No Christian should find that hard to say.

His own true masterpiece, IMHO.
And there's huge competition for that spot from this most fecund and felicitous of melodists!

Dvorak's cello concerto op 104 was premiered in London by a British cellist, Leo Stern, with Dvorak conducting, otd 130 years ago. What a work: a journey encompassing heroism, excitement, intimacy, tenderness, aching nostalgia and at the end, personal tragedy. A true masterpiece.

Truly encapsulates the blithering imbeciles in the minor parties at Westminster!
Not that the major parties have statesmen and women of value and worth. Lightweight dross, at best.

Ed Davey has done more than all the other Liberal leaders put together to cement the party’s irrelevancy. Well done you self-important buffoon.

Impressive pace!
Then, along came his lectures!

No ice-hockey rinks available, so a nice morning run in Hyde Park with Prime minister @MarkJCarney, Diana and Suzanne.

“I think #Brexit was obviously a huge mistake, one of the biggest that we've seen in recent history. My sort of tongue-in-cheek comment is that it took you seven years to negotiate out. It'll take you seven years to regret and then another seven years to get in again...

These are not places of higher learning. They are just scabrous hate-factories whose output is measured in litres of bile per hour.

This isn’t higher education - it’s incessant indoctrination into leftist drivel.

Thank goodness!
Very nearly had statutary murder in Scotland. Irrespective of views and beliefs of the medics compelled to kill.
Appalling ideas. Nazi Germany re-incarnated.

The acme, zenith, summit of EU leaders - articulate, urbane, principled, determined, focussed, intelligent and insightful.

So, when the anthropologists of 2526 are sifting through the rubble of the ancient city of Dubai, which peaked, then fell, in the early 21st century, how will they explain these appearances?
Ritual? Religion? Delusion?

Arthur Miller-Broken Glass-very late play-1994-Young Vic Theatre.
Very intense, psychological, disturbing play. Dark, even for Miller.
Director - Jordan Fein (Fiddler, Into the Woods): minimalist set, no intermission.
Recommended (to 20.4.26)

Excellent.
Sadly, the cancer of socialismus has long been free to metastasise in your country.
But maybe not now? Depends on 2026 election outcome.

Nu ändrar vi på det. Från och med 6 juni måste den som vill bli medborgare i Sverige: 👉Kunna prata svenska 👉Kunna försörja sig 👉Leva skötsamt och inte begå brott Det är rättvist mot alla svenska medborgare, nya och gamla, som gör rätt för sig. Medborgarskapet är inte bara ett pass, utan ett kvitto på att man fullt ut är en del av Sverige. Med både rättigheter och skyldigheter. Och att alla kan bli en del av vår samhällsgemenskap, oavsett var man kommer ifrån.
