Liam Murray does a good job in suggesting how British National Party leader Nick Griffin might best present himself on TV tonight when he joins a controversial BBC Question Time panel. The excellent point being that if the other panellists want to be seen to show Griffin up as a nasty […]
Tory Bear does some digging on the Labour Party’s zany allies in the European Parliament. And strikes gold. Or does he? He is unimpressed with Mr Andrzej ("It is impossible to rape a prostitute!") Lepper: Where to start with their leader and the sleaze, the criminal activities and the general […]
This time a curious and very unastonishing piece in the Spectator by Martin Bright, which uses as some vital evidence Craig Murray’s long-lost fleeting relationship with Kaminski in the mid-1990s. I have posted a comment suggesting that media bunnies might like to ask David Miliband three questions: did No 10 […]
Craig Murray has a good posting on the important interview between Iain Dale and Michal Kaminski. It just shows where things now stand when a mere Blogger does what no so-called serious MSM journalist has done, and talks to the person at the centre of a controversy to hear what […]
I wrote about the British Embassy in Warsaw’s encounters (and not) with Roman Polanski last year: It turned out that Polanski has been invited ‘privately’ to lunch at HM Ambassador’s Residence in Warsaw under a previous management. So UK taxpayer’s money had gone to feed and water this fellow in some […]
Lieutenant-Commander Tadeusz Lesisz has died aged 91. Here is a sense of what he achieved and witnessed in his extraordinary life. People like him built the social and moral capital which today’s enfeebled generations do not even understand and are frittering away. So civilisations flow and ebb. Dziekuje.
Wrinkled Weasel asks: My line of late has tended towards the very position you are critical of – the concerns of Russians about "encirclement" Can you explain to me why the USA, which has far more form when it comes to "encirclement" than Russia has had in the last 50 […]
Chekov at Three Thousand Versts generously takes up my posting on the psychology of Russia’s foreign policy, and responds: In addition, we can agree that insensitivity to Russia’s concerns, from Nato and other western structures, caused Russian disillusionment which effects ‘cooperation’ to this day. Nato’s support for Albanian separatists in […]
President Obama has cancelled a plan to build US anti-missile defence radar facilities in Poland and the Czech Republic. This move has been hailed by Russia’s President Medvedev as a "wise decision". Which, of course, prompts the ignoble thought that if the Russians like it so much, something must be […]
The Polish Government has showed its displeasure at the US missile defence decision by playing the protocol card: Prime Minister Tusk refused to take a telephone-call from Hillary Clinton, steering her to talk to her opposite number (ie Polish Foreign Minister Radek Sikorski). Tusk eventually talked to President Obama after […]
