Disgusting case of grovelling towards Royal Saudis.

We just cannot believe our eyes this week of the television images of dreadful grovelling towards the rulers of Saudi Arabia. The nature of devious, duplicity of Saudi foreign policy eludes those who dance and sing praises at the feet of the King of the Saudis. The evils of Saudi wahhabism  are overlooked, as the king proclaims moderation we discover  UK mosques are stuffed with reactionary Saudi wahhabis hate literature.  One understands states need relations and sometimes even with dreadful regimes but to engage in displays of over the top grovelling is nauseating, given different circumstances we wonder that if the Mugabe regime had abundant oil to trade he would be the one being praised and we informed of “shared values” - this is too much! British foreign policy needs cleaning up and some sort of return to a principled, ethical foreign policy, we need to dump relations with unpleasant regimes, there would also be some cost savings.

Naming the Royal in the scandal.

For once the high and mighty tabloids are stuck they cannot name the Royal involved in the blackmail scandal yet thanks to the internet curiosity can be satisfied within seconds. Normally, we have no time for silly sex scandal stories, private lives are private lives unless of course they cause problems for others who may be innocent. Our tabloid media is intrusive, the search for cheap headlines especially sex scandals is all they seek, they care little for the lives they may ruin. How sick can it get when The Sun was prepared to pay a paparazzi £300,000 a shot of the face of a dying princess. We wish all good people would boycott the miserable Murdoch Sun. No, I’m not naming anyone in the Royal sex scandal  simply because we all deserve to keep private lives.
