Russia is bad. There is no excuse for attacking Ukraine, and the argument that it was a strategic imperative to stop NATO’s encroachment is just propaganda, right? That’s what every source in the mainstream media will tell you. But oddly enough, that logic never seems to apply when western countries perceive …

Europe probably has the most infiltrated foreign policy circles out of any region on the planet. Why so, you may ask? Precisely because it harbours a ridiculous number of US funded think tanks and institutions dedicated, primarily, to lobbying on behalf of American foreign policy goals, to such an extent …

Now here’s a bit of a conundrum for the 21st century woke brigade; just where the hell does about one in every 660 men fit into the LGBTQ alphabet soup? It didn’t seem to overly concern the folk in Finland a thousand-or-so years ago, they seemed to just kind of …

Man, I don’t know about you, but I could ‘murder a Ruby’. You know what I mean, right? A ‘Ruby Murray’: a curry. I like a bit of madras myself but the missus loves a korma. Sometimes I can handle a vindaloo, especially washed down with a fair few beers. …
