Ennobled by Tony Blair, Lord Waheed Alli was the first ‘openly’ gay member of the House of Lords. He also claims to be an ‘openly gay Muslim’ which not only seems like a contradiction in terms but, if he bumps into the wrong kind of Muslims, also a life-shortening strategy. I guess he doesn’t have […]

We are being assaulted by such a plethora of viruses these days that it is a wonder any of us are still alive. We had barely emerged from the Covid-19 scam and its bewildering array of scariants, then monkeypox trotted along threatening to wipe us out. Now we have bird flu, West Nile virus, Oropouche
