On November 3 rd  2020, surviving COVID19 Americans will decide between a creepy, forgetful Septuagenarian weird, uncle figure and a Septuagenarian racist, pussy-grabbing, misogynist with an Olympian Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Donald J Trump has consistently displayed all the classic symptoms of NPD, for four long years. The  Freudian  checklist for Donald’s chronic narcissism will begin to sound familiar very quickly. First does the 45th   President possess a grandiose sense of self-importance? Does the Pope do number twos in the woods? Arrogant, vain with a relentless sense of his own superiority, (‘I have the best words’). Trump is the most malignant Narcissist since Herr Hitler. From the day Donnie first threw his toys out of the Trump gold-plated  perambulator , he’s been ‘special’. We, after all are lucky to have him. Does Donald live in a fantasy world that supports his titanic delusions of grandeur? Again, Pope Francis is back in the woods doing his business. Donald’s h

To paraphrase William ‘Braveheart’ Wallace, COVID19 may take our lives but it will never take...OUR TECHNOLOGY! This nasty strain of Coronavirus has knocked mankind for six, whisking many of us off to meet our makers but Tech, like rust never sleeps. Humanity’s innate ingenuity will always find a way to shine, even in the darkest of times. Unsurprisingly the Digital Age we live in has come to the fore, allowing business and life in general to get back to some semblance of normality. Or as we now call it in Brave New Coronavirus World the ‘new normal’. These digital wonders are literally propping up our daily lives. Techno tools that are proving essential in keeping us moving forward and not grinding to a shuddering halt.   This leap in technology during COVID19 has gathered real momentum. We all need to be in a permanent state of digital readiness. Staying current to whatever technology dreams up next, will not only be essential to a business but to the country that business is locate

Trying to make sense of the car crash that is 2020, is a tricky business. Which is why conspiracy theories are born. From a laboratory manufactured bioweapon to tracker vaccines, that know what you had for breakfast. One man’s conspiracy theory is a trillion men’s misinformation. Clutching at straws is what human beings do, when our world is in meltdown. In writing this piece I do not wish to trivialise the gravity of the situation we find ourselves in. The very nature of Social Media and the light speed a rumour, falsehood or fabrication, can whizz around the globe is frightening. I sincerely urge you to stay safe by continuing to practice good hygiene and physical distancing. As well as avoiding public gatherings and by isolating yourself, if need be. It’s a tough call but these are tough times. So, in no particular order here are some of the more colourful Coronavirus conspiracies that are nuttier than Secret Squirrel doo-doo. First, as I’ve already mentioned, features a swarthy

If you think where you live has been hit hard by COVID19, spare a thought for the poor people of Latin America. Cases of Coronavirus have been rising acutely. Back in May I wrote about COVID19 outbreaks in Brazil. If anything, things have got worse, with over 3 million confirmed cases of Coronavirus. Second only to Trump's America. It doesn’t get much better when you look elsewhere in the region. Picture a league table of the Top 10 COVID19 countries in the world, 5 of them would be Latin American. Mexico, Chile, Columbia and Peru, now join Brazil in having major outbreaks, with each country’s hospitals, groaning under the influx of new cases. It was thought that the first confirmed Latin American case occurred in Brazil back in February. Recently evidence has emerged that the first cases actually occurred in January. The virus seems to have found exactly the right conditions to thrive and flourish. Spreading down through Central to South America, while racking up over 5 millio

Whether 'tis nobler in the ballot box to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous unpopularity. Or to take up arms against a pandemic of troubles.  And by opposing end them. W oe is the fate of Trump’s Disunited States of America, that the stark reality of digging modern day plague pits would be required to achieve herd immunity from COVID19. Of course, this would mean the most vulnerable amongst us, would frequently receive a visit from G. Reaper for months, possibly years. For everyone to contract the virus, a lot of people will have to die before the upside of herd immunity would be seen. In the States, Corona fatalities are nearing 170,000. That figure would be a drop in the ocean if herd immunity was allowed to run its course.  So, what is herd immunity?  It is the point where most of the population, (figures vary between 60% to 90%), become immune to the virus either by being infected and recovering from the disease or by vaccination against it. This theory has it that th
