So now I must go down to the studio again, for there my future waits. The past is gone, life rolls on, the creative pulse is too strong to ignore. I must get on with living. My heart may be failing, my bones rebelling, my art not selling, but the sun still rises, beauty surrounds me and the studio awaits patrickgoff.com/uncategorize…

Why daisies? I like the central Archimedean spiral of their golden stamens. I like the variety of scale they come in, from the cultivated brashness of the Shasta daisy to the uncultivated innocence of the native English ox-eye daisy patrickgoff.com/art-2/the-br… (now in a private collection)

Churchill got it so wrong in 1940. All that money squandered on Spitfires, radar and the Royal Navy, when the real threat to Britain was obviously unsafe road crossings. Thank God Starmer has spotted the gap in our defences. £4.5bn of zebra crossings should hold the line against Putin.

Good morning. Later than usual after a fight with the cat who wanted feeding ar 3.55a.m. this morning and wouldn't let me sleep. So now feeling tired and have a sulking cat. Not a good start to what promises to be another ice cream day

Between 2010 and 2024, the RAF experienced the largest reduction in fleet size since the end of the Cold War. The Brirish Army lost 23 regiments. The Royal Navy lost 25 ships. Ministers who did this are still Conservatives or now in Reform UK. Don't be fooled.

🚨 CORRUPT JUDGE. This is Lady Maggie Scott — a senior Scottish judge. She allowed convicted child rapist (below) Daniel Cieslak to walk free with an absolute discharge after he raped a 12-year-old girl. Instead of a conviction for rape, she said the child “looked over 16” and let him off completely — no jail, no sex offenders register. In another case, she praised Algerian rapist Hamadache Hamza for “overcoming his difficult background” and setting up a hairdressing business, after he brutally raped a woman leaving her with internal injuries. These are the people deciding justice in Britain. No wonder victims lose all faith. No wonder predators laugh at the system. Name them. Shame them. SACK THEM. Protect our children.

good morning. The air seems washed, clean, crystal clear. Beautiful light as the sun rises, its heat already evident. Definately an ice cream day if it continues like this

Earlier today, the Polish parliament observed a moment of silence in memory of the murdered Henry Nowak and all victims of anti-white racism. You can always count on Poland.

The second major MoD resignation today and notable for a few reasons. Al Carns left military service and a career that would quite likely have resulted in promotion to high rank to stand as an MP and help Labour's defence and veterans policy. With both him and Healey gone, we know the DIP is going to be yet another failure for the Starmer government, and a time-sensitive one at that. The UK will be woefully unprepared for conflict at home or overseas - NATO's warning about Russia in 2030, the risk of China's invasion of Taiwan before then, and ongoing wars in Ukraine and the Middle East - the UK will struggle to play a major part. How has a permanent member of the UN Security Council let it get to this... I despair...
We owe those who serve the UK the kit to do the job and the loyalty to stand by them when it's done. We are failing on both. I’ve spent my whole time in government making that case. Number 10 will not listen, so I am resigning as Minister for the Armed Forces. Letter to the PM below.🫡🫡🫡⬇️⬇️

Something we have known for a considerable time. @UKLabour and @Keir_Starmer fail in the first duty of government - to deter and defeat threats to the United Kingdom. General Election now.
