By Malgwyn | December 23, 2011

That’s in anticipation! The Euro was introduced on 1 January 1999.  Much of the media has already written its demise - others keep resuscitating it to keep it alive. Will it survive? I will need to revisit this post in a year’s time, and who knows. It will be interesting to read the news articles [...]

UK Elderly Being Bullied Into Downsizing?

By Malgwyn | October 20, 2011

It has been on BBC radio and TV News - and one can find it being discussed elsewhere.  That’s the view of one charity, not being viewed charitably. If you are over 60 and the children have flown the nest then it is time for you to fly the nest too to make room for [...]

Boston & Immigration - UK-European Culture Clash

By Malgwyn | September 18, 2011

Published only yesterday further comments on Peter Hitchens article (only 3!) have been stopped! Is this article on immigration as sensitive as Gordon Brown’s gaffe over Mrs Duffy?
Describing the cultural problems over immigration and the changes in our own culture - will the article also be axed? Although dealt with very objectively, it is a [...]

Squatters Rights: A UK Injustice

By Malgwyn | September 8, 2011

“Victory Over The Squatters” says the Daily Mail. What’s ‘Victory’ about gaining possession of your home if it has cost you £1000s to do so?

The World Watches England Ablaze 2011

By Malgwyn | August 12, 2011

It has been watched on television around the world. How could a once Christian country have come to this? The riots in London and other cities in England have really been tragic for the victims, tragic for the perpetrators that they should think and behave the way they have. It is tragic for the country [...]

America: Land Of The Free - 4 July 2011

By Malgwyn | July 2, 2011

A prominent Christian in the US, Richard Land gives his 4 July speech emphasising the uniqueness of America from other nations - freedom rates for me as the highest in human values. But do we value other people’s rights to hold their freedoms with our own? Land is right to draw attention to what happened [...]

By Malgwyn | June 5, 2011

“74,500 people have been ‘lost’ because officials do not know whether they have left the country or died.” And that is just asylum seekers! What about all the illegal immigrants? The author of a letter to Mr Cameron has a solution to offer the government. Go to the end of the letter and the solution [...]
