Grenfell Tower, North Kensington - My Thoughts Are With Families and Victims
I woke up this morning to great sadness that the block of flats called Grenfell Tower in North Kensington had gone up in flames. Not only I was just saying that they seemed to have a sense of peace and quite about them, but I've had a feeling that something was bound to happen, wether it was a terror attack or something just so simple like this.

Strong And Stable, But At What Cost?
“Strong and stable” has been repeated over and over during the last two months, since UK Prime Minister Theresa May called a General Election on 18th April. But what does that mean? We have been asking the same question of “Brexit means Brexit” and we still don’t have an answer. But we can shed some light on the former by analysing her behaviour since the Brexit vote.

What Do I Think About the Situation?
You'll be surprised why it has taken me this long to comment on English politics, on this snap election/general election whatever you call it these days. To be honest my head has been all over the place and I wanted to see where it was going to go. May thought she was going to remain in power because she thought everyone was going to vote for her; may I point out how many u-turns she made, how many mistakes she made, how many people have left her party since the election, how many insults she gave to the whole country and most importantly just how dangerously out of control she's getting.

Unbelievable Worst Case Scenarios for President Trump
In American history, we haven’t seen a president like Donald Trump. He is an arrogant, bombastic, and even a buffoon, if you will, type of president. Trump is on pace to be the 3rd US president to get impeached by his own political party. In this article, I will go over the "what-if" scenarios that could occur out of Trump's mysterious actions. As the man himself once said, "What separates the winners from the losers is how a person reacts to each new twist of fate”.

This Is a United Kingdom?
The UK General Election 2017 was the result of Theresa May's Government deciding that a snap general election was the best way forward for "the country". I agreed that it is a difficult position that Mrs May had been placed in, and the desire to bring "the country" together to rein in a strong front for the UK to sit round the negotiation table for Brexit that would honour the democratic will of the people of the UK to leave.

Modern Political Speeches
Fewer things have changed the course of history more in the 20th century than the great modern political speeches – oratories that moved nations and people alike to action. The great speech makers became icons in their era, in part for their abilities to bring about great change with words alone.

Don't Be Hoodwinked
General elections are oh so civilized and bring out the best in people, not! Roll on Thursday, the general election is getting boring. Political campaigns are the biggest hypocritical joke on the planet and it's now got to the mud-slinging final days. Each of the main party leaders have had everything but the kitchen sink flung at them to slight their character and policy has long gone out the window.
