I've been writing some weird stuff since I realised that C is unlikely to resume putting music to my words. My latest lyrics explore the innermost thoughts of Antonius Block (The Seventh Seal) as he plays chess with the creepy hooded dude.

No.
Joseph of Arimathea took him down from the cross when he was still alive. Lying flat, blood flow to the brain resumed and he regained consciousness.
Remarkable, but hardly miraculous.

Interested in this. Do you genuinely believe that around 2,000 years ago there was a man who was killed and then rose from the dead, on this earth?

Yes, and while we're at it, we should dismantle the rest of Attlee's Welfare State.
The more you treat people like dependent children, the more they behave as such...... which is, of course, precisely what Socialists want.

Controversial opinion: The UK should have no NHS. We should take responsibly for our own health, our own emergency savings and not be so reliant on the state.

"Should" is a tricky word. Too many people today say "should", when they mean, "should be compelled to...."
I trust you don't mean that.
Such matters should be left to market forces.

Should car insurance give money back at the end of the year if you haven’t had any accidents??

I'm curious. For which species *would* it work?
Any species that failed to pursue the purpose of existence -- to have children and give them the greatest possible advantage over all other children -- would be extinct by now.

Socialism only works in theory. It goes against human nature. Good idea, wrong species.

No.
IQ tests can be manipulated until they test not intelligence but acquiesence.
Today, when education has been replaced by Hippy-Communist indoctrination, those who had the strength of character to resist are dubbed "unintelligent".

There should be an IQ test in order to vote.

....home to my books and music, and be put into a nursing home.
They (the ubiquitous "they") want me to have a pendant alarm. No thanks. The only thing I want around my neck is a cyanide capsule.

Years? One of my ailments will get me in a few months at most. I've started to fear death less than I hate suspense.
Best case scenario: I slip away in my sleep.
Worst case scenario: I fall again, break something, and can't reach the gun cabinet. I know I would never get....

When people get in their 50s and 60s and up, do you start thinking about how many years you have left? I’m curious..

How US saved their airman and pulled off ‘most daring operation in history’ telegraph.co.uk/world-news/202…
Bravo US special forces! Thanks to them, an airman lived to celebrate Easter.
If Dad had been shot down, he wouldn't have been so lucky.
That's another story I've told before.

As for Grandad, he would be appalled. He was sub-organist of Westminster Abbey, and had the organ of his own church, St. Clements, Eastcheap, refurbished.
He also saved that Wren-designed building from being burned down by the Luftwaffe, but I've told that story before.

Church organs ‘will fall silent within 50 years’ telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/04/0…
Why were my late father's employers, the Church Commissioners, not approached for comment? They seem to have forgotten their job since he retired. They have plenty of money to give to "woke" causes.

Waitrose sacks employee after stopping shoplifter stealing Easter eggs telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/04/0…
This is disgraceful. He should have got a bonus -- not the sack.

There is such a thing as "too much information", Michael, old chap.
All this time I've been blaming Royal Mail for the fact that my @spectator is usually late these days, when it's down to you staring at pictures of Shabana Mahmood instead of doing whatever it is that editors do.

Churchill's incomparable wartime performance excepted (Cometh the hour, cometh the man. He wasn't that great as a peacetime PM.) Margaret Thatcher was probably our greatest PM since that office was created.

Home schooling by private tutor is their only chance to escape, and even that must be closely supervised.
