Not A Priti Sight

Via what is essentially a spy network that seems to account for the huge majority of Conservative MPs, the Leadership of what is currently the governing party of the United Kingdom appears to be in the gift of a junior partner in the governing coalition of a state with which this one has no relationship beyond common membership of the United Nations and of its subsidiaries.

A state, moreover, that armed Argentina during the Falklands War, and which was founded, still just within living memory, by anti-British terrorists of the most exceptional viciousness. Terrorism that I know still goes on, because I am a victim of it. That would be taken seriously anywhere other than here in the fiefdom of Boss Henig.

Davey Hopper and I did once muse on the possibility of erecting a memorial to those who had fallen in and for British Palestine. If such a monument were indeed to be erected here in County Durham, and this would be as good a place as any, then perhaps it ought to be in the ward of Chester-le-Street West Central, with Simon Henig compelled to unveil it?

And then to lay a wreath twice annually, on Balfour Day and on Nakba Day? It is still just about possible to have the thing up in time for 15th May 2018, which will not just be any other year. Or perhaps, after that unveiling, Henig could be muted to stop disruptive noise, and then bound to the monument itself, there to remain forever, until his remains had entirely decomposed?
