11: Saturday 2nd Dec- Alastair Darling, Henry Kissinger, COP 26 and London ...

This week in the UK saw the passing of Alastair Darling, he of the 2008 crash steerage , whom Leonie got to know- she it transpires is also addressing COP 28 for the London Asembly . We consider the legacy of Henry Kissinger - not the Messiah but a very naughty boy? Plus of course Mal's election corner and various important sidebars. I append some of a little fanfare I wrote recently (Mal i incidentally alo a Composer) with Thanks on my 62nd to this wonderful lot for braving all times and weathers with their wisdom and bonhomie.
