In this interview he is candid about his journey.Here is a link to the Vice documentary https://www.vice.com/en/article/9kx9xa/watch-homeless-film-director-david-russell-mystic-demon-killerIf you would like to support David here is a link to his go fund me account https://www.gofundme.com/f/with-my-housing-cost-at-university?member=30462611&sharetype=teams&utm_campaign=p_na+share-sheet&utm_medium=more&utm_source=customerIf you wish to contact me email me at [email protected] a text3XjqIZFpgpbZE40lFNhG

That Was The News That Was Dateline 5th January 2024

This week's word is transparency.This is one of the things that the Prime Minister promised when he took office.I believe there are still points that we are not being told.I have to deal with press offices and just asking for a document that I was informed by the press office themselves I am still waiting 3 weeks now.Mr Cleverly , the Home Secretary has stated the government have met their promise to meet the migrant figures of last year. They did by giving three quarters amnesty, the remaining quarter are still here. They do not tell you that.Mr Sunak has stated the General Election will be held in the last half of the year, this is the person who stated the flights to Rwanda will be in the spring. One problem to that he has no aircraft.If you wish to comment email me at [email protected] a text3XjqIZFpgpbZE40lFNhG

That Was The News That Was Date Line 29th December

This week I am taking 2 words Justice and Truth.I think they should go hand in hand but do they.1/ Lord Bethel has produced a message that proves the government did not know of Lady Mone's business dealing, it was sent in 2020. One problem with this , he has signed a document for the Covid Inquiry saying that he could not access any messages before 2021. 2/ Mr Sunak is proving he is in the same mould as Boris, he is now set on getting rid of the immigrants. Now at the last election it was all about Brexit next one will be all about the immigrants. Will this help the country?3/ The rise of section 21 eviction is no joke. In their manifesto they were going to scrub it, it was to be part of the rent reform bill. They took it out saying the courts have to change. This an excuse, they could of done it but look what they did with Rwanda, the courts said Rwanda was unsafe , our government bought a bill out that states Rwanda is safe.Send a text3XjqIZFpgpbZE40lFNhG

Real Lives Presents an economics primer

The bad new is I don't know everything, due to things I have done in the past, I have a good idea of book keeping and I feel I am good at figures but I could never call myself an economist ,I think an apt title for me would be hobbyist, I know lots of things but only one maybe two I could call myself a specialist.I was looking for an economist, a Mr Barry James contacted me he is has an interest in economics.I love listen to put forward theories and he told me why Liz Truss repeated the speech which got her the position of Prime Minister, she said the same words at the Conservative Party Conference . I thought she was a lunatic but Barry told me why, I still can't believe it.So listen to a very engaging manSend a text3XjqIZFpgpbZE40lFNhG
