ON FEBRUARY 10, an observation I made relating to the badinage of Jacob Rees-Mogg, appeared in The Advertizer.

Hansard will note that on the following day, February 11, Mr. Mogg made this statement in the House of Commons- ‘Though for preference for breakfast, Mr Speaker, you’ll know what I like – it’s nanny’s homemade marmalade on toast.’

‘Middle class socialists don’t like the poor, they just hate the rich’- Enraged over jovial banter about a breakfast choice, left leaning members of the public were wailing on social media for a week.

The incessant whining, acquired victimhood and existential misery of your average frothing Marxist, shows no decline in 2021.

I comment on politics and people I admire, policies I believe have had a detrimental effect, now and historically, on this once wonderful country.

Some of these policies suggest they were thought up by a bunch of fresh intake students, who had been set a team building exercise, the night after a lengthy introduction session at the hotel bar

Through bad judgment or poor choice over the past 50 years, a minority in the UK have adversely changed the future of this country, without a mandate to do so. Now people with the same proclivities appear hell-bent on rewriting or cancelling our past, while trying to suppress opinion in the present.

I welcome response from people with like-minded opinions as well as different views.

If you choose to extol the virtues of the people you admire, be it Gemma Collins, Katie Price or her sobriquet Jordan, I would not dream of challenging your desire or right to do so.

So come on Alistair Wood, from your February 17 letters – if you are a closet One Direction fan or a Manchester United stalwart, please don’t be too embarrassed to scream it from the rooftops?
