I sometimes wonder are we better off not to know what is going on and have our heads buried in the sand. Everywhere you look , it is all about getting everyone under someone's thumb!!!!! Who is your friend with your best interests at heart and who is your enemy waiting to do the dirty on you and your fellow citizens.
Unfortunately I cannot think that closing your eyes to what is going on is the answer. One day we will all wake up and find that we are no better than the little toddler who is told be careful, don't go there you might fall over, eat up your dinner , go to bed and get your sleep, stay clean , wash your hands, be good and everyone will love you.

As a young child, I had the good fortune to be educated by a man of great wisdom and knowledge. He taught me the value of critical thinking and the joy of the written word, history and robust debate. Today, I received an email from him and he fell from his pedestal and, like a statue and monument to things past, he tumbled to the ground and I mourn his metaphorical death.
There have only been 3 men in my close personal association for whom I have held deep respect: my father, my teacher and a man who mentored me in my work career. Each for different reasons, but, in essence, because they displayed the same personality and character traits: conviction to their beliefs, decency, family values and an enormous and steadfast knowledge that our minds are our greatest asset and that freedom is sacrosanct.
As the insanity of the Soros funded New World Order sweeps the planet like a plague of locusts devouring everything decent it is wake, we are facing an enemy that is relentless and gaining strength. Not because of its numbers, but because our media and many of our politicians are encouraging it and demanding that we do not fight back.
This current wave of desecration of our monuments and the vilification of our public figures is an international disgrace.
Abraham Lincoln, Christopher Columbus, James Cook, Queen Victoria, Sir Winston Churchill…. Men and women who did more to bring enlightenment and progress to the world than few have ever done subsequently.
To target these people who did so much is a symptom of the real virus that is in our midst: the virus of hatred, destruction and absolute control. This article focuses on Abraham Lincoln, whose memorial was so horrifically defaced in the recent riots.
Abraham Lincoln led the Union to free the slaves in the south. As part of his passionate campaign to free the slaves, he appealed to the cotton workers of Lancashire, the home of the cotton mills in northern England. Lincoln reasoned that if the exported cotton from the southern states in America was not processed, the workers of England’s north could hold the key to winning the battle against slavery.

Back in February, President Trump held a Rally in Colorado. He said “Can we get like ‘Gone with the Wind’ back, please?” when referring to the recent Academy Awards.
Now, this famous movie has been deemed offensive and has been pulled from streaming services.
I wrote an article at the time and it is well worth revisiting what I had to say back then, in light of the current insanity that has turned our world upside down with racial division, rioting and destruction of history. " Gone with the wind " is a stark portayal of human nature and how we were, are and always will be.

I wrote an article about Mother’s being the boss.
Apparently, Redhead took this to heart and decided that I needed to fix her bloody magic chair.
Some of you will have read about the magic chair that so changed Redhead’s life. Well, today, that magic chair turned into a lightbulb moment. A bad back, a magic chair, a birthday party, a bossy 88 year old and a cold and very hard tile floor…..
As night falls on our freedoms, we have a narrow window of opportunity to set things right. But the window is closing. Unless and until we get the grownups back in charge, western civilisation is over. Communism will come in, under the guise of Socialism. If that happens, the tantrum throwing leftie luvvies won’t know what has struck them.
The solution lies with getting the " kids " back doing the dishes , letting the adults do their job of running the show yes, it is about Lemon Trees.
I read with dismay some of the comments made by MSM about the moment that President Trump held a Bible in the early days of the Riots. The image of the President striding out of the White House grounds to stand before an historic church damaged by fire has been condemned by MSM and compared to Saddam and Gaddafi.
The question of his Right to hold this tome has been raised and he has been accused of using it as political prop.
How many of them know the story of Donald Trump's relationship with the Bible?
Here is the story that most of them did not know and probably do not even care about anyway.
I am moved to write an article about Indigenous or Black deaths in custody. I worked in the prison system as a female officer in a maximum security prison so I feel I have some right to speak on this topic.
I had quite a number of indigenous inmates under my supervision and care. Yes, I call it care because I did care. As a white, rather small female, I probably should never have worked in a place like that but I thought I could make a difference and I did actually need the money.
So here are my observations from my time working in that prison with prisoners who were indigenous, white, asian and all manner of things in between.

We have been conned. Apparently, the Virus only affects people at Church, Pubs and Funerals. Birthday parties, schools, restaurants and parks. Beaches and gymnasiums. But it does not affect people throwing bricks, looting, committing arson and bludgeoning people.
Our State Leaders have shown us that they are impotent cowards who have swindled us, lied to us, cheated us of our incomes, families, beliefs and social structure for a pack of lies. And they are the only losers - not us - because their treachery has exposed them for what they are : spineless con artists with no integrity and no respect for us or themselves.
I am thoroughly disgusted with the lot of them. If, in two weeks time, there is a fresh outbreak of the Virus, they lose. Because they failed in their duty to uphold their own lockdown laws. If, on the other hand, there is no outbreak, they lose. Because they have shown us that this entire economic and social disaster was unnecessary.
No matter what, they are losers.
It is my late father’s birthday. He would have been 94. I am one of the old fashioned people who love and loved my Dad . I have no hangups or need for therapy to cope with his behaviour or memory. In fact, I think my parents are and were pretty great people. They gave me life and a life that I cherish each and every day I spend here on this place called Planet Earth.
I went to see Redhead this morning – my Mum - as you readers will know. We looked at photos of my late Dad and cried and sobbed and talked about him. As we always do. Everyday and every week and every year since he passed from this world in to the other.
We talked about “ The Gathering “ that we had when he left us those few short years ago and could not help but say “ We could not have had our gathering today under the Wuflu restrictions. ” We are grateful that we could hug and cuddle and laugh and cry together as a group of people who loved one man: My Dad. Redhead’s husband of 65 years.
Yet this would be banned today and rioters are OK.
No wonder so many of us are pissed off.
