Hard Times are back as 2017 closes

I managed a half day buying a few presents in nearby Bath yesterday and was very conscious of the spending that was going on all around me. I took time to talk to the Big Issue seller, Ivan who was  who has been sleeping in a city centre car park and whilst he is clearly cheered by those who have had time to stop and talk or offer to buy a copy of the magazine, he was less sanguine in his views that society still has a long way to go to recognise the issues and the underlying causes.

Review of 2017
17 Dec. 2017 by
2017 was a year of extremes for me. My first Christmas without my Beautiful Girl had been difficult and I arrived into the first New Year, only six months after she died to a life I didn’t recognise as mine. I promised her I would live. I had nothing to lose any more and I had nothing to fear. The worst had happened and with this knowledge I took my first steps into this unfamiliar territory and took what was left with both hands. There have been many tears but also so many highlights.

So ....highlights of 2017....!

You know, this is a tough one. Politics has been so erratic and unexpected for the last 18 months I wouldn't know where to start with all the negatives, so I'll stick with the highlights. The positive for me was the Labour Party Conference in September. I've said elsewhere, it was a moment in time. In particular the extraordinary talent of Naomi Klein aligning herself squarely with Labour, and of course that astonishing leaders speech.
