Little did I know that I was carrying a time bomb in my back pocket. It’s a Huawei P9, a smart little phone (forgive the pun!) whose makers have the potential to cause a lot of us a lot of trouble. Gone are the days when we had to phone the local butcher to make […]
Auschwitz – Des Gens Ordinaires, Des Vies Extraordinaires
Un sentiment étrange, ma première visite en Pologne. C’est le pays de mon père, mais une terre où il a perdu sa famille et ses racines. Mon père a quitté la Pologne au début des années 30, sentant le danger provenant de l’Allemagne et, voulant faire des études de médecine, a décidé que la France […]
Auschwitz – Ordinary People, Extraordinary Lives
No one wanted to know. No one wanted to listen to what I had to say. But I made a commitment that people don’t want to hear but I’m going to make sure that they will. Not in the history of mankind has there been industrial killing on this scale. If something happened once, there […]

Mon Trésor Inca
Je t’ai vu traverser la neige fragile, Je t’ai aidé à franchir le lac de cristal. Et lorsque tu t’es approchée de moi d’un sommet andin, Pour me balayer de l’océan sans fin, Comme un message dans une bouteille, Comme un trésor sur un bateau, Une pépite d’or provenant des Incas, Tu me laisses saisir […]
PATRIMOINE: Notre-Dame de Paris – Quand Religion Recontre Laïcité
Le soir de l’incendie de Notre-Dame, Emmanuel Macron avait du mal à cacher ses larmes lors de sa brève intervention à la télévision. Une partie de Paris était en train de brûler et c’est un brasier qui devrait toucher chacun d’entre-nous. L’incendie de la cathédrale souligne la fragilité de l’histoire, nous rappelle de manière intemporelle […]

Femicide In Europe – A Question Of Manhood
The victims all had a Christian name – Suzanne, Ingrid, Florence, Catherine… Most had a job – schoolteacher, bank employee, secretary… They all had parents, friends, neighbours, and many had children. Their Christian names are our names and their jobs are our jobs. We too, have parents, friends, and for many of us, children. For […]
Film Review: “The Mule” – The Good, The Bad, And The Slow
I admit it, my thoughts on “The Mule” are going to be biased because I just love the guy. Ever since I saw Clint Eastwood in “The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly,” as a teenager, I finally realised what “coolness” was all about. And, take it from me, this guy is cool. For those […]
Notre-Dame De Paris – This Old Lady Is Not For Burning
On the night of the fire, the emotion shown by president Macron during his short television statement in front of Notre-Dame spoke louder than the cathedral’s bells, as his tears were not so far away. A part of Paris was burning, and it’s a blaze that should affect us all. It underscores the fragility of history, […]
Why It’s Time For The UK To Leave The European Union
In times gone by, the European Union was something that was never mentioned in rural England, despite its continuous presence. Like a morning mist that never lifts, the scent of the EU lingered daily above the Yorkshire dales, well into the afternoon before briefly disappearing, only to return with a vengeance at dusk. Since the […]
Thierry Baudet – The Dark Apparition of The Owl Of Minerva In The Netherlands
The owl of Minerva spreads its wings only with the falling of the dusk – Hegel Elections took place in the Netherlands’ 12 provinces last month, where the voters were called to reelect the provincial councils, responsible for daily administration of the provinces. An important role of the provincial councils is the election of […]
