Their President is a dangerous clown but they the people of America, they are a laughing stock. The entire world is laughing at them all. Is this perhaps the gulf that separates the USA from the rest of the world? Is it a Gulf of Understanding? chatteringmagpie.wordpress.com/2025/02/09/b...

On New Year Eve of 2024, some bright spark with what could be described as a rather unusual sense of humour, attended a fancy dress party in a Public House in Cornwall. No harm in that obviously but they did so dressed as a member of the Ku Klux Clan. chatteringmagpie.wordpress.com/2025/02/19/a...

As a medical procedure abortion is here in Britain, no longer regarded as a political issue and this has been so for over half a century. Here diametrically opposite to the situation in the USA, abortion is not a public issue but a private matter. chatteringmagpie.wordpress.com/2024/09/07/t...

‘A few times every year I will receive fan mail. Occasionally at some event, I will be recognised. Rarer still, I will be asked for my autograph. On the 16th of February, something happened to me which has never happened before. I received hate mail.’ chatteringmagpie.wordpress.com/2025/02/18/a...

‘Here in the United Kingdom it is not socially acceptable to be a racist, a sexist or to be homophobic. Based on what I see on You-Tube however, the situation is diametrically opposite in the United States of America.’ chatteringmagpie.wordpress.com/2022/04/10/t...

‘When someone is supporting the policies of Donald Trump, they directly or indirectly, condone discrimination, bigotry and hate. That is not a minor difference of opinion. That is the tacit support of fascism.’ chatteringmagpie.wordpress.com/2025/02/16/w...

‘Bishop Budde has spoken in defence of the marginalised and the dispossessed. Her doing so is an illustration of her own humanity, a trait that appears to be lacking in Trump and his supporters. She has shown herself to be truly a Woman of God.’ chatteringmagpie.wordpress.com/2025/01/25/a...
