To vote or not to vote? That is the question. Choosing who to vote for has never been a problem for me. When I was a long-haired student and member of the Labour Party I duly voted Labour and continued doing so for many years, until I saw the light. That particular light was Margaret […]

We are through Ramadan and Eid Mubarak has been called which means that Muslims can now get back to eating during the day instead of eating all night. ‘Oh’, I hear you say, you thought that they fasted? Well, no, not exactly. If you missed the fact that Ramadan has been upon us then you

For those of us who don’t lie awake at night fretting about global warming or wake up in the morning in a cold sweat wondering if, when we open the curtains, the world as we know it will still exist, the excellent film Climate: The Movie is exactly what we have been waiting for. In seventy

Your intrepid Deputy Editor was in London this week with Mrs Watson to see a show. It had long been on my bucket list to see The Book of Mormon. One of my daughters warned me that it was offensive from the get-go. I was not disappointed. In fact, as a Christian, I was so

Many years ago my wife and I had dinner with a very senior and once prominent civil servant and his wife. The civil servant was seeing his days out in the House of Lords. They were charming and interesting company, indiscreet even. When talking about our respective families, it transpired that their daughter was an
Apparently ‘countryside’ is not just another word for killing Guardian readers, it is the name of a place which occupies 90 per cent of the British landscape.
