Cool Runnings & Misconceptions

As I enjoy Rastafarian reggae, which many other black people of my age in England does not, and it is a practise of them to smoke marijuana, I thought that I would not tar the island of where the majority of them live, with a dubious reputation.  Cannabis is against the law on the island of wood and water, and the majority of people, especially the middle classes, view such practises which does not embrace evangelical Christian conservatism as an act of pious rebellion.  On the island it is easily possessed by the fifteen percent who indulges in it and some of the many liberal tourist, who views it to be their right, when on holiday in the place which is associated with the weed.  So do not only think of the herb, when thinking of paradise, think of the hummingbird and no problem.

The Death of Keynes

The Cardinal Rules of Democracy  & Employment for a Digital Age   John Maynard Keynes is considered by many, as one of the greatest thinkers of the 20 th century.   A descendant of Norman conquering feudalists, at Eton he traced his ancestors thus far.   Born in 1883, at a time when the sun never set on the British Empire and Britain was in an empirical age of Splendid Isolation, he studied mathematics at Cambridge, where he was advised to study economics.   He became iconic in an age of Georgian reinvention.   Females were allowed to study at Cambridge, the Suffragette movement was in militant full swing and the Bloomsbury sect was the cultural hub of the classical thinkers and politicians of the time.   Virginia Wolfe and Lady Ottoline Morrell were just two of those who challenged the established views on anything from female suffrage and the British Empire.   Keynes became a member of this iconoclastic movement in 1902.  ...

YOU DID! WE KNOW! IT’S UP, WE SAW! YOU’RE IN!

“Justices and judges of courts at all levels continue to find cross examination not only a necessary, but also a sufficient method of confronting a variety of trial evidence and burdens.”  “According to McCormick, as early as 1668 a court rejected an out-of-court statement because “the other party could not cross-examine the party sworn.   “Professor Langbein tracked this as the transition from “[t]he oath based system [that] presupposed the witness’s fear that God would damn a perjurer. . . .”   was quoted by Jules Epstein, Associate Professor of Law at Widener University School of Law. To the average citizen of the Western World in 2013, such a statement is too obvious to even allow the brain cell to process methodically.  Those who are of a reasonable age will remember the echoes of nostalgic crisis and the call for patriotic vigilance in the defence of democratic values, libertarian ethos and lawful decency, during the Cold War.  W...

Civil Liberties

When in previous blogs I wrote about all of the government criminal trickery (politicks) when representing the British electorate, another abuse has come to light.  Forced homelessness, is another tactic practiced in the UK and USA.  If the British government forces you to the USA, which they define has your home, if their Frankenstein gay experimental tricks do not work, then they make you homeless in the vast population there.  Or they will send you back to the UK to be homeless or hospitalised in one of the vast number of UK towns or cities.  I would write more on this, but the authorities have been sending medical staff to my home to make certain that I am swallowing my medicine pills.  So now I am finding it difficult to write.  The only reasons they say I am unwell is I am straight and Afro-Caribbean.
