The state of things.

More than ever, I have a very low opinion of the political machinations of our leaders and the billionaire owners of the British news media. I am politically depressed. Depressed because regardless of the spin,

I can tell the difference between a fascist government and people with a specific set of religious beliefs.

I know what terrorism is.

I know what war between nation states looks like

And I know genocide when I see it.

I see a world being manipulated into war, a slide towards disaster.

What to do?

Last week Cornflake and I watched episodes of Game of Thrones that included the gruesome deaths of awful characters. I enjoyed them all. I highly recommend it. You can imaginatively super impose the face of your chosen world leader/politician to replace the actor meeting a deservedly ghastly end.

Who is your Joffrey? Walder Frey? Who gets their face eaten off by their own dogs?

If you repeat watch you can either have the same candidate die several times or can see a variety die in a manner you feel they deserve.

Your choice.

Arya had her list, I’ve got mine, I imagine you have yours.

I’d really like to offer this as an alternative to actual war. Stop making war and repeat watch Battle of the Bastards…..And yes I am calling warmongers ‘bastards’ and worse besides. My current favourite is ‘wank splats’, Cornflake has settled on ‘cunts’.
