Promises – Lies – and Damned Lies

Good Sunday Morning, Clarence here. I’m quite recovered from yesterday, I don’t think anyone could try to fit politics and D-Day into the same head and come out sane. I rested up with a Jackie Chan film about him and a horse, called Ride On. It had subtitles but I thought I might understand ChineseContinueContinue reading “Promises – Lies – and Damned Lies”

Clarence on Post Drivel

So did you watch? Even I turned it off. The Conservative bullying strategy of talking over everyone else again was the final nail in the coffin; so rude. If you want to lose an election that’s text book. Privileged prawns. The terrifying part was that the Farage made a lot of sense. The less terrifyingContinueContinue reading “Clarence on Post Drivel”

Toilet Roll Complexities

We all know that we shouldn’t let our minds fuss about the silly things. Yet we do. I thought my ‘thing’ may amuse you! The recalcitrant loo roll holder We have three toilets in our house. Two have lovely holders where you just have to pull the inner to the right and off it comes,ContinueContinue reading “Toilet Roll Complexities”

Don’t Watch It!

Clarence here, at your service. I had a frenetic day yesterday. I slept overnight in a tree outside Sir Keir Starmer’s house, nothing interesting happened. Then I went to France for the D-Day celebrations. No jokes here, just complete, awe inspiring, respect. Those people are still heroes now. How did they live with that inContinueContinue reading “Don’t Watch It!”

Helpful suggestionsContinueContinue reading “Clarence – Your 24 Hour Warning!”

Getting Worse – Clarence on the Case

So, the results from last night’s screaming match are in. A lot of agreement from the public that the choice in the UK indicates that a states person would be desirable. Conclusions so far are: * Sunak is a liar * Starmer is a Lawyer Therefore there is nothing to choose between them. Of courseContinueContinue reading “Getting Worse – Clarence on the Case”

Clarence on the Debate/Debacle

Dear Friends I’m a bit shaky today. I watched the debate last night. If that even convinced anyone to actually vote the UK is in a worse state than I thought. Two leaders incapable of just saying yes or no, very loudly. Can’t we just resurrect the Late Queen, she sorted her own son andContinueContinue reading “Clarence on the Debate/Debacle”

Elections: Staying Sane

Your friend and roving reporter Clarence here If you don’t want to feel like this for the next few weeks I have a few tips that may help you retain your sanity and sense of optimism.

Clarence on the Case

Another offering from my roving political reporter who covers all the UK General Elections, and needs the five years in between to recover. Last night one of the architects of Brexit, Johnson’s co-truth-avoider and game player, took over a political party without duly being voted in by the members, and did what we all knewContinueContinue reading “Clarence on the Case”
