A most welcome fact-packed summary of our human genius for destroying the beautiful, beneficial and life-supporting – thank you!

I almost feel sorry for the Hollywood, self-serving, deluded and totally ignorant who are unaware they have been flattered into self-destruction. Instead of fulfilling their democratic duty to keep their bureaucrats accountable, and thus their environment viable, they wallowed in their unkindness and stupidity. Now their homes are but uninsured ash - oh, well, what a shame, never mind.

I don't suppose any of those strapping young men who cross the Channel uninvited are skilled trades-people? We don't actually need any more unskilled young men - with increasing AI and therefore automation we only have loss of jobs – apart from the armed forces many of whom can only be deployed in quiet and hospitable areas. I understand that the more traditional types are used to protect many of our MPs, who, for some reason, are not as popular as they imagined with their constituents.

One of the most disheartening discoveries is that not only are our young working class unskilled but also our ruling class. It appears that our MPs rely on the 'advice' of civil servants who don't regard themselves as servants and take the advice (marketing and hard salesmanship) of various lobbyists. Unfortunately, their degrees in the classics ill equipping them for understanding business motivations, basic financial matters or scientific/technical issues. Much like our Hollywood elite, our civil servants seem dazzled by their superiority and by the flattery of the lobbyists.

Lastly, I am enjoying the POTUS' uplifting agenda – if only he wasn't firmly welded to the mRNA jabs. But maybe he will be able to encourage more useful industries and rely less on medical scams.

Thank you so much for a most enjoyable read. I sincerely hope you and yours are flourishing.
