The Corbyn Personality Cult

In Brighton this week, Jeremy Corbyn has had a twinkle in his eye and so well he might. A year ago he was the bête noir of not just the Tories but also large sections of his own party who saw his jump to the left as the death knell for the party. But oh […]

Whistle blows on Party Conference season

It’s that time of year when the leaves start to fall, the geese head south and political parties decamp to a conference centre near you for a few days of back slapping with the party faithful. Along the way, the big guns will roll out the ideological road maps, while the smaller guns will hope […]

After the relentless churn of the UK political seas in the eye of the General Election storm, the domestic doldrums of August were reassuringly calm… Well, Summer’s over and, as MPs return to Parliament this week, […]

Summer Holidays are over…Time for a Holiday?

August Bank Holiday officially brought the UK summer holiday season of 2017 to a close and phew what a scorcher it was! Did you get away on vacation or just hang around on a staycation? Whatever you did, chances are that this week has a touch of the ‘back to school’ feeling about it. Hopefully […]

Bad News is Good News on Planet Trump

Love Island may have finished, as has the drama of the British Parliament, but just when we were all looking forward to the uneventful dog days of summer, it’s all kicking off on the other side of the Atlantic… It’s almost as if Donald Trump and his strategists (although in reality, this could just mean […]
