finally some commonsense from Australia about Brexit

Sky News reporter NAILS IT on Brexit I think the British public is desiring neigh gasping for someone to say something not involving grovelling to Europe. Listen to this lady spell it out.

Scientologists on the rampage

We have the pleasure of going to a Saturday lunchtime party yesterday  where the affable host was showing cartoons designed by his son.  As time went on, he was a little bit more fulsome in his discussion of his 35-year-old son's mental problems which had culminated in a stay in a psychiatric hospital for some months.

With a little imagination it could have been seen as under the sea itself. My appointment was with a very businesslike Dr Julia Maltby who had read all my notes in great detail and very firmly and clearly told me what the alternatives were. She...
