The murder of children in Southport on Monday was horrific, and the riot the following day was outrageous. There are serious questions to be asked about the chaos in Britain and they must not be censored, says Claire Fox.

158 academics have signed a letter calling for NATO to admit Ukraine. But they don't address the crucial question of when Ukraine should be admitted: now, or once the war is over. Neither option is straightforward.

LATET ANGUIS IN HERBA

Tony Blair and Jose Maria Aznar have enjoyed a private breakfast at 10 Downing Street London.

according to today's print edition of La Vanguardia.

Tony Blair is the Privy Lord Councilor of HMG of the UK and Northern Ireland.

Jose Maria is life president of the PP of España and ex prime minister of HMG of Spain.

Mr Aznar is very important, he must be, because he lives in important places, meets important people and had a book written about him. His daughter was married with great pomp and circumstance. His signature is to be seen on the end of many documents which he might have helped write.

He travels the world, regularly expressing the opinions which he shares with much of the rest of his party, and of course his own personal opinions. He most recently spent almost twelve hours articulating many of these in a commission to investigate the horror of M11. He excelled himself impressing many with his delivery, offending many others with his firmness and prejudice. We may presume that this mightbe atopic of conversation with Mr Blair. Mr Aznar has never enjoyed scandals of a more salicious type, and so we may presume that the recent problems besetting Mr Blunkett after his prolonged and obsessive harassment of a woman with considerably less "power" than he were made public.


Mr Aznar usually talks about terror, how to make lives better and improve the lot of his fellow men.
He has the support of many in the RC church who like most of religious persuasion and faith have found their convictions shaken by modernity and the end effects of social globalisation and the popularisation of American values and fears through their dominant entertainment industry.

He is thus to be expected to come across as a little bit arrogant to many, but this is really not what he is like at all. We remember him for many things, not least of all the photo taken in the Azores with President Bush and Mr Blair on the island of Terceira, 2300 miles west of Washington DC 900 miles east of Madrid, the territory of Portugal who's patron saint is George (who killed the dragon).

We must wait till tomorrow to read what La Vanguardia may report of this private breakfast, as today it's only available in "pdf" version, and your trusted correspondent has not the money to or means to purchase this page today. I will of course leave the link in the comments.

Without a doubt, Mr Aznar will have mentioned the return of terrorist tactics to Spain, (which he believes has never stopped being terrorised) and perhaps Mr Blair will have mentioned the Northern Ireland peace process, and the Reverend Ian Paisley's request that the photographic evidence held by members of the Finnish judiciary and diplomatic corp along with a Canadian ex-general will be made public to satisfy all that the political wing of the IRA may enter government according to the constitutional settlement voted upon by the peoples of Ireland and Northern Ireland some years ago.

Mr Paisley once held a sign up in the European parliament declaring that HH Pope John Paul 2 was the antichrist. That sign was ripped from his hand by deputy von Hapsburg, an austrian scion of the former ruling dynasty of one of the now defunct crowns of christendom. Mr Aznar wouldn't have approved of that action, and may have chuckled today with MrBlair over the attempts by the Hungarian state to extend citizenship to all hungarians who live within the former territories of that empire. Mr Aznar once shored up the British opposition to further European integration by seeking a stronger trans-Atlantic relationship with the USA and even went as far as to encourage Poland (where the pope was born) to enter the coalition of the willing to invade Babalon and give democracy to the Iraqis.

This is contrary to the Irish political interest.

We support the Pope, and Poland, and we enjoy a very special relationship with both Europe and the USA. We are a neutral country with a very special historic relationship with Britian (we helped build, design and maintain it's empire) with Spain (we have for many generations taught it english and turned a blind eye to it's teenagers shoplifting) and the USA (we helped build, design and maintain it).


Meanwhile I enjoyed breakfast this morning with my flatmates one of whom is studying a masters in integration of immigrants and works in a retirement home to pay the rent. Another works in a restaurant and is hoping to have saved enough by next year to be able to plan a masters course. We drank coffee which thanks to free ecomonics is cheaper than it used to be, and ate some sweet cakes which do not carry any declaration that the grains used do not contain GM material, or any indication of the pathogenic potential of the additives. We talked about what happens in our lives, our economic insecurity, our inate belief in the brotherhood and sorority of man and woman kind and our wish that peace will come.

Thanks to indymedia I can tell you about our breakfast for less than the price of a local phone call, because as you know there is a computer in every house, in 10 downing street, in Mr Aznar's house - everywhere except of course where the majority of people live in Africa, Asia and South America but don't worry they dont fear atomic energy, they know they can't change the times, and they rarely talk of euthanasia, and they consume very little Oil.

qui facit per alium facit per se: "non exercitus neque thesauri praesidia regni sunt verum amici."

Till I can get the link to the statements I would love to hear what fellow users of the internet ate for breakfast this morning. And here is a joint statement Mr Blair made with Mr Aznar when both of them were prime ministers to crowns of Christendom. It deals with achieving the Lisbon accord ( a city built on seven hills ) which promised people like you and I "the plebs" job security and freedom to offer our skills in the employment markets of the European Union with guarantees of social security et cetera...
