Ken - thanks for your message to my site page.
We agree to differ about the perceived benefits to the
UK of membership of the EU.
It is fine to dream of a Utopian world when, like lambs,
we lie down together. The jackals that come with each generation always seem to spoil the peace party and present a problem...witness the posturings and threats of the leader of North Korea.
Each has to be faced by the existing generation and
there's no easy solution, as our forebears have found.
We should always hope for the best and prepare for the
worst. Or - as WSC observed: Better jaw-jaw than war-war. But tragically, there are those who aren't
listening.
By the way, I enjoyed your site poem about age. Much to ponder and agree with!
Cheers.
MC

Hi Harry. Hope your safely back in your rut.
Him in North Korea wouldn't be so belligerent if you and I had international bus passes.

Hi, Ken,
My worlds a bit mad at the moment so only saw your comment on my prof tonight.
You are absolutely right about your deterrence effect (I always wondered how those Koreans wrought up their courage...now I know - sheer opportunism, as soon as they found out that we were demobbed)
I`ll tell you what as well... If that big fat pig in charge there now ever comes over...well slice him into a million little bits with our pension cards.
Keep the poems coming!

Ken - what do you think of the latest utterances from the
EU's "John 'Claws' Junkshop"? Even avowed "Remainers"
seem dubious about the intentions. But it surely endorses
what has been suspected from when the Referendum
Party(Goldsmith/Walters) warned against what was planned
- including an EU army and non-accountable police force -
and was roundly mocked for its "ridiculous" assertions.
Power does strange things to those on the Continent!!
Perhaps JCJ sees an emperor's role on offer?
