The 1960 film ‘The Magnificent Seven’ was apparently based on the true story which formed the basis of the 1954 Japanese movie the ‘Seven Samurai’. ‘The Magnificent Seven’ was in fact a Hollywood re-make of that film and was full of heroism, self-sacrifice and human integrity. I loved it.

Jihadi Bride, Shamima Begum, will soon be back in Blighty and free to live amongst us on hot and cold running benefits and no number of petitions or outraged tweets are going to stop this happening.

What a time to be living in the West. We've never been richer, more educated or healthier and our life expectancy is increasing year on year.

“It’s easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled” (Mark Twain)

Jihadi Bride, Shamima Begrum should be stripped of her UK citizenship and left to rot in Syria and we should all stop obsessing about this foul traitor.

I am even more convinced that Brexit will never be delivered.

US-backed Venezuelan opposition figure Juan Guaido has claimed that 300,000 of his compatriots will die from starvation – if American “humanitarian” aid is not let into the South American country.

The fact that 35 thousand people signed up for Nigel Farage’s new Brexit party in the first 48 hours should be a clear warning to the Establishment that the times are changing. This is the first clear signal that the people are determined to get even if not angry.

Yesterday in the den of dishonesty and inequity which serves us the British seat of democracy a Tory Minister almost caused the roof to cave in.

Last week, a group of criminals called the ‘Stansted 15’ were sentenced for breaking into a secure airport and locking themselves around a chartered plane set to deport illegal immigrants to prevent its departure from Stansted. They were convicted under terrorism laws.

I do hope that our useless weak Prime Minister is collecting the airmiles from all these EU trips because one thing’s for sure she and we are getting jack all else out of the EU Mafia.

Politics is about taking sides. Those who seek to sit on fences in the midst of important political struggles and events end up with nothing more than cowardly reputations and very sore arses.

According to the Jewish charity, the Community Security Trust, it had recorded 1,652 anti-Semitic incidents last year.

Western governments and media have reached a “magical thinking” stage in their fantasies about alleged Russian propaganda and influence. The magical thinking is such that there is no longer even a need to prove claims. It is simply “fact” by assertion.

The BBC have to save £800 million. So, they are suggesting that the free licence for over 75’s should be scrapped. I’ve got a much better idea; lets break up the Bloated Broadcasting Corporation, sell off large portions of it and trim it down to size an then we can all stop paying this “poll tax”.

This weekend Project Brexit Hysteria jumped up a notch. The Remain legacy media’s reaction to Nissan’s announcement that they are moving production of a car that is redundant before it rolls off the production line to Japan is breathtaking.

I detest ‘trial by tabloid’ and ‘pitchfork justice’ which is inevitably ill-informed, illegitimate and ignorant of the law and the details of cases and/or incidents. I used to consider Gerry Conlon of the Guildford Four a friend until his premature death from lung cancer in June 2014.

The success of Trump’s sanctions against Venezuela hinges on the Saudi willingness to cooperate with his administration. However, such cooperation is far from certain.

If you ever wanted proof that the snowflakes have taken over the UK look no further than the pathetic response of people to a little bit of real snow falling on the country and the Brexit result.

US national security advisor John Bolton tweeted cynically this week that he “wishes” Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro to take “retirement on a nice beach somewhere far away”.
