I have been listening Katty Kay and Scaramucci, you can find them here. I find their partnership on their podcasts as an intelligent discussion on the woes of America. It is like living in a parallel world, and it was summoned up by one comment in the podcast - I wouldn't be surprised at this point if Trump declares himself a god and marries a horse. As of course the Irish high Kings in Dark Age Ireland were supposed to do at Tara I believe (and I think they mated!)
The ridiculous and surreal has pranced onto the world stage. Has anyone read H. G. Wells- War of the World. There are two groups of people the Eloi and the Morlocks. The Eloi are pretty small blonde haired people living on the surface of the Earth, the Morlocks on the other hand are dark creatures living in the dark subterranean caves below. Sadly the Morlocks keep the Eloi for food, and they tend to their needs and the Eloi who are not very bright live uncomplicated lives, not understanding what is happening..........
The other thing I caught last night was the Wandering Turnip in Hawarth of all places, marvelling about the small shops open up the hill to The Rectory, home of the three Bronte girls. He also went up on the moors, to find the supposed farmhouse where Cathy lived in "Wuthering Heights". Bit daft, and it was a rather ugly old ruined building but interesting all the same. Sometimes I see England as a whole theme land of past history.
It's crazy times here, isn't it? We're protesting, courts are saying NO, many are shouting at meetings but this administration just keeps piling on more chaos. Oh, Thelma, I'm worried for my grandchildren. What world are we leaving them? Who will turn it around?
ReplyDeleteKeep calm Ellen, we can't make the future for our grandchildren only they can do it. Finding fault is a mug's game anyway. Trump has created a show but how long can he keep it on the road?
DeleteHi Thelma, I tried to click the link you posted but it didn't work.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what to say because the trade tariffs (and trade war) is unprecedented.
Our PM and Chancellor are trying to fix our country so this isn't good for us at all, but especially to Americans as the price of goods goes up.
Liam.
Hello Liam sorry about that, have got the right link now. They are an engaging duo on the subject of politics as are Alistair Campbell and Rory Stewart on English affairs.
