The Dominic Cummings Affair And A Whole new Meaning to “A Barney Castle”!
A while back I wrote to our Carlisle MP, John Stevenson to make my displeasure clear about the continued employment of Dominic Cummings as Boris Johnson’s special adviser despite his lockdown breaking journey to Durham. This was followed by an unbelievable piece of bullshit driving to Barnard Castle as “an eye test”! Here’s John’s reply. Our ref, JO9392 Dear Ray Thank you for writing to me about Dominic Cummings The last couple of months have been trying for everyone – and we have all had to make sacrifices in regards to who we can see and what we can do. We have done this not just to protect ourselves, but to protect each other, including of course here in Carlisle. The Government has issued guidelines and rules to help us do...
Climate Disinformation in The Wake of the UN Climate Summit
Because the oil industry is on the back foot now, they are using their obscene wealth to double down on their disinformation PR campaigns globally, to con the gullible into ignoring the blatantly obvious warning signs that we are f*cking up our little spaceship Earth! A friend posted a video from the Youtube channel “Friends of Science” (sic).

Her soothing tones cover...
On Europe, Refugees and the Rise of Inhumanity!
I just read a post in Linked In by Ban Ki Moon – putting the case for a more humane way of viewing the current refugee crisis. It makes sad reading despite its upbeat tone. The only response so far was from some right wing sounding character who only picked up on the supposed increase in sex attacks in Belgium, completely ignoring the Belgian’s own nasty habit of isolating refugee communities within their country. (or is that just my misreading of the muddied reports that come out about refugee life?). It is however depressing to see the countries who most recently joined the EU for their perceived economic benefit are the ones building Trump’s Wall in Europe while our own astonishingly wealthy, but parasitised country virtually washes its hands...

Benefits of List Building
List building has become known as one of the most essential elements in search engine marketing. This article talks about the benefits that you can enjoy if you implement this in your website. Some of the benefits of list building include: Removes the need of making cold calls. Cold calls can be a salesperson’s nightmare, because all of his or her efforts can be put to waste if the people they’ve contacted are simply not interested in the product they’re offering. In contrast, those who have signed up for mailing lists are actually those who are interested in what you have to say. As such, you will be able to focus all of your attention on efforts on people who are more likely to bring sales your way. Increases customer awareness about your...
