Profit Is The Sole Criterion Used By

Arthur Scargill’s Leadership Of The Miners’ Strike Has Been A Disgrace. The Price To Be Paid For His Folly Will Be Immense. He Will Have Destroyed The Num As An Effective Fighting Force Within British Trade Unionism For The Next 20 Years. If Kamikaze Pilots Were To Form Their Own Union, Arthur Would Be An Ideal Choice For Leader.

The Political Spectrum Is Not Linear But Circular. In My Experience The Extreme Left Always Ends Up Rubbing Shoulders With The Extreme Right. They Are Philosophically Blood Brothers.

The Task Of The Media In A Democracy Is Not To Ease The Path Of Those Who Govern, But To Make Life Difficult For Them By Constant Vigilance As To How They Exercise The Power They Only Hold In Trust From The People.

Dictators Can Fix Up Their Entire Families In Good Jobs, In Or Around Government, And Often Do. In Democracies, Such A Practice Is Frowned Upon. Privileged Access To The Corridors Of Power Through Family Connections And A Kind Of Old Boys' Network, Is Also Deemed An Abuse Of Power, And So It Is.

It Is In The Public Interest To Know What Our Governors Are Up To. If They Are Up To Doing Good, Then They Are Only Too Happy To Let Us Know. When They Are Up To No Good, They Want That Kept Secret.
