What does levelling up mean to a Tory?? Telling the same lies to everyone?
Thanks John Peachey and Chris Riddell.
Roy Harper – First Batch of Harper Books Dispatched!!
I had a busy morning signing books, parcelling up and addressing!
I don’t think I’m very good at it!!
The lady in the Post Office wasn’t too pleased to see me and neither were the people behind me in the queue. I just made the post. It was a little fraught.
The good news is that the first batches of books are in the post and should be arriving shortly. Please acknowledge when you get them!
I still have some more copies if anybody else wants me to sign a copy (email me at opher@hotmail.co.uk) and they are available at Burning Shed (the publisher’s site) Search – Roy Harper (burningshed.com) and the book will be available from Amazon on July 29th Roy Harper: Every Album, Every Song (On Track) : Opher Goodwin: Amazon.co.uk: Books
Cheers Opher – I’m off to have a sit-down!!
Climate Change Deniers.
Do you still believe Trump and the Petrochemical-industry? There is no such thing as climate change!

So we have floods, mass migrations, droughts, sea-level rises, heatwaves, massive bushfires, death and destruction on a massive scale.
All predicted.
All following the computer modelling.
All going to cause chaos and destruction on a scale we have never witnessed.
All caused by man-made destruction of forests and burning of fossil fuels.
Trump and the petrochemical industry, in search of massive profits, denied it was happening, put out fake news and paid scientists to lie.
Trump walked out of office having pocketed $1.6 Billion! He’s a conman – and you believed him??
Still in denial????????

This is worth a listen. We’re on a path to madness.

Poetry – Enough is Enough
Enough is Enough
Enough is enough,
It all has a limit.
You can take so much
And can no longer grin it.
The tide will turn
The revolution comes
Whether through the ballot box
Or through the roar of guns.

The cognitive beliefs are breaking down. We no longer trust our politicians. Our leaders are fools. We have lost our faith. We believe they do not represent us. They represent the wealthy.
There are two societies. One lives inside the other. One has so much and the other has what’s left – as little as is necessary.
There is a fury building.
Change is coming.
Poetry – Who Needs them?
Who Needs them?
Doctors and police
Nurses and teachers-
Whining gits,
Moaners and leachers.
Who needs them?
Who really cares?
We’ve got ours.
They’ve got theirs.
Opher 20.9.2018
It is the wealthy who make the laws, who run the system. They have their private schooling and private healthcare and live in their gated communities with security to keep them safe.
They resent every penny spent on public services. It’s wasted money. They screw their noses up when all those parasites whinge about their salaries or the fact that the institutions are falling to bits. Who cares? Who needs them?
