Democracy 2.0

February 7, 2017February 8, 2017 CabernetVoltaire

Cross words

January 10, 2017February 7, 2017 CabernetVoltaire

On five Saturdays per year, the Times newspaper in London publishes a crossword which most people pass over without a second glance, but which is quite one of the most extraordinary things every created for human satisfaction. As you can … Continue reading Cross words

Small parts

January 9, 2017January 9, 2018 CabernetVoltaire

My love for my husband died the day small parts of him began exploding in bed. I remember the first occasion vividly. It was his right big toe-nail I believe, though of course I didn’t realise that at the time. … Continue reading Small parts

Like it’s 1991

January 5, 2017March 8, 2017 CabernetVoltaire

As a bulwark against the constant tide of information and comment pouring in from facebook, twitter, YouTube, Instagram and all, and in an attempt to regain a bit of time from the world, I resolved that in 2017 I would … Continue reading Like it’s 1991

Sherlock

January 3, 2017February 8, 2017 CabernetVoltaire

Coxes

December 21, 2016January 10, 2017 CabernetVoltaire

As luck would have it, this is the second piece in a row I have posted which appears, on the face of it, to defend Nigel Farage. That’s an appalling and shameful record. As I hope I make clear, like … Continue reading Coxes

Bus

November 22, 2016January 10, 2017 CabernetVoltaire

This isn’t even topical, but now the egregious Farage has curried enough favour with the Orange Demagogue to be suggested as the UK’s ambassador to the US, it’s something that people are still going on about, so I can’t remain … Continue reading Bus

Constitution 101

November 4, 2016August 11, 2017 CabernetVoltaire

Bloody hell, these remoaners are trying to thwart Brexit! Yes. That is what happens when people disagree in a democracy. They keep explaining why they disagree, sometimes in court rooms if necessary. Brexit isn’t an inexorable, ineluctable force. It’s the … Continue reading Constitution 101
