I decided to go back to my normal custom of doing everything I can to ignore politics and current affairs but things have got so ridiculous that its proving impossible. There is so much madness in the world I've found myself drawn back into commenting.
I'll have to start with Trump, even though I live on the saner side of the Atlantic. I don't accept he is the democratically elected leader of the free world because, for starters, I don't accept a democracy where the candidate who receives the fewest votes can end up elected. As I have said before, the 'first past the post' system we use in the UK is just as crooked. We know politicians tell lies, that is a given but Trump is so brazen he doesn't even try to hide the fact. According to him the truth is whatever he wants it to be at the time. The Irish PM Enda Kelly is a gutsy man, standing in the White house and delivering a speech critical of the mop haired moron's stance on immigration, fair play! Contrast this with our own Theresa May who went to Washington and done everything but give him a gobble, the sniveling little witch. (NB I say 'our own' but I totally disown the unelected PM of our country). Finally there are British people celebrating Trump on social media, if you are one of these then you are an utter fuckwitt.
The trouble with Trump is he distracts people from things that really matter. For example the Tory party has been found guilty of and fined for electoral fraud which should be big news, another example of our so called democracy being undermined. This is just shrugged off by the brain washed British masses who are more interested by Trump's latest moronic tweet or Farage's latest borderline racist rant.
There has been more of this crap from Farage in the light of the murderous attack in Westminster last week, he says we should think about a Trump style travel ban on certain nationalities. How would this prevent a British born murderer is anyone's guess but it did give the twat a soundbite opportunity. What we have here is a murderous lunatic going on a killing spree and no one should use this for political capital, so far it seems as if this is the case. Unfortunately there is nothing to stop fuckwitts on social media going on anti-Muslim rants. No one tried to ban Irish or Catholics from entering the country in the aftermath of the IRA attacks in the seventies and eighties...
Earlier this month the England ODI team went to the Carribbean for a short, three match series. We absolutely battered them and it was barely competitive. Once again we have a reminder of just how far the once great cricketing nation(s) has fallen. Of equal concern was the state of the crowds in Antigua and Barbados. What has happened to the traditional West Indian cricket atmosphere? The locals have been priced out of the grounds which were full of pissed up, over weight, middle aged Brits. Instead of reggae and calypso sound systems the crowds were moving to modern dance music, of sorts. Sad...
