Blog Returns from Holiday
July 3, 2021I have been away in places where Wi-Fi is in the stone age and more recently have been very busy with family reunions as lockdown restrictions ease. Now I feel motivated to start commenting again.
As an opening thought I think it is time to update the scope of this blog. It is a commentary on politics and current affairs and has no affiliations to any political party, all of which are fiercely attacked or enthusiastically supported, depending on what they do that day. There is a general feeling that the standard of political competence is at a low ebb across the board and the fabric of the state is frayed and full of holes.
There will be two underlying themes. Rebuilding a fairer economy post pandemic and reforming of key institutions to make that possible. Beyond those developing arguments there may also be random observations about current affairs as events happen. From time to time adverts will appear for the catalogue of current books under my authorship or my nom de plume Tor Raven.
Happy reading and thank you for your support.
