On Presidential Election 2024

 Well the best you can say it is all over now, no coup attempts in the White House, no assassinations (yet) despite the odds and general public decency The Trump out trumped Harris and at least on this side of the Atlantic well dealing with what is.

It's far too early to write the definitive blog entry, so much happens so rapidly but given they have a Presidential system, he'll be establishing a team of advisers to (one hopes) advise him around a range of issues from broad economic policy, the vexed question of migration (legal and otherwise), law including  reproductive rights that remains highly polarizing, dealing with entrenched racial discrimination and attitudes, foreign policy and defence and so on.

At some point the question of a State Visit to the U.K. will come up and I know there many of us who have grave misgivings about the man and some of his statements during the course but he WILL BE their Head of State, just like our King Charles III is so we need to put that behind us and deal with his as their representative and afford him a welcome.

Thank goodness we don't have all this!
