On 22nd September 1934 at Gresford Colliery, Wales, an explosion killed 266 men & boys underground. 6 survived and only 11 bodies were ever recovered.
The wages of all were docked by half a days pay by the owners because the men had 'failed to complete their shift.'
"But now the belts are empty,
came a sadness with the dawn.
And the body-press is idle,
and the valley's blinds are drawn.
Disaster struck this morning
when a fitter's mate named Ron
Cracked the mould of solid gold,
that once made Barry John."
RIP. Genius. Lovely man.

Proper paper (cf the right wing client journalist rags owned and run by non doms, overseas billionaires, the occasional peer and non-Lord Dacre)

Read a very sad account of a GP’s harrowing day from yesterday. Took hope further away from me. But sat in my study, writing a report which should considerably help a local business, Chopin in the background, blue sky and a gorgeous Red Kite gliding towards my window. Ah well.

Can all those who want to leave the ECHR please tell me which of these rights you are happy not to apply to you and your family.

I have dedicated my whole life to the Rule of Law & never thought that my Government would treat it with such contempt
A society is judged on how it treats its most vulnerable & today with families at #Grenfell memorial, with refugees being deported & children starving I despair

Deportation of asylum seekers should shame us as a nation.
Our Christian heritage should inspire us to treat vulnerable people seeking asylum with compassion, fairness and justice.
