Brexit Crisis: Coming to the Boil

December 10, 2018 By Malcolm Blair-Robinson

At what is clearly a critical and historic moment it is right for this blog to re-state my position. The EU is the greatest political achievement since the fall of Rome, uniting the whole European family and civilization into a single economic and political entity, sharing sovereignty, whilst at the same time preserving independent nation […]

Another White House Exit

December 9, 2018 By Malcolm Blair-Robinson

It has been known for some time that General Kelly was unlikely to stay. It is surprising he lasted so long. The military mind is built on discipline, rules, order and obedience. You would think such qualities ideal for the seat of Executive Government. But the Trump White House is built around Trump. Most Presidents […]

In the olden days before Cameron’s silly parliament act, that would have been the end of the government. But now it […]

December 4, 2018 By Malcolm Blair-Robinson

Nobody predicted what is now happening, because not a single rational person thought events  unfolding could happen. In Great Britain. The home of stable, decisive government and world class statecraft. Yet, here we are with a government now on the threshold of being voted in contempt of parliament and additionally facing certain defeat on its […]

A Plea for the Forgotten

November 29, 2018 By Malcolm Blair-Robinson

Brexit, like a forest fire, is starting to consume everything in its path. The government, parliament, the media, everybody it seems including this blog, talk and argue about nothing else.
