Vision After Fission

Hiroshima Day again. While the atom bomb has been used, nuclear weapons such as exist today never have been. By anyone. And look at the people who have had them, or who still do have them. Stalin never launched a nuclear attack. Stalin. Nor did Chairman Mao.

Boris Johnson is many things. But he is no Chairman Mao. It is all a bluff. Just get rid of these wretched things. We could pay the affected shipyard workers quite eye-watering sums in compensation, and still save amounts that there were scarcely the adjectives to describe. 

Alas, the people who lack this basic common sense are going to be numerous within the Parliamentary Labour Party for some years yet. Another hung Parliament is coming, however, and we need our people to hold the balance of power in it. A new party is now in the process of registration.

I will stand for Parliament here at North West Durham even if I can raise only the deposit, which I could do by going pretty overdrawn, although that was not how I was brought up. I would still prefer to raise the £10,000 necessary to mount a serious campaign, but I am no longer making my candidacy conditional on having done so. In any event, please email davidaslindsay@hotmail.com. Very many thanks.
