The Conservatives have launched "Ethics and Accountability", the first part of our draft manifesto for Fixing Broken Politics. It is vital that we act decisively to restore the reputation of politics. Too many unacceptable practices have gone unchecked for too long, from excessive expenses and subsidies to secret donations. We need nothing less than a deep clean of the political system in...
Anglican Patrimony is not simply Choral Evensong or BCP, it is also pastoral work for all those in the parish. This afternoon both Year 6 classes from Sevenoaks Primary School, braving a flurry of snow, came to church to reflect about the meaning of prayer. We reflected on the basics of Christian prayer and looked at the Lord’s Prayer as model and source of prayer. All pupils outlined the palm...

The Bocuse D’Or USA finals yesterday in Hyde Park resembled Iron Chef . The twelve-chef tournament is a kitchen-versus-kitchen competition in front of a live audience, judged by culinary luminaries, with a limited set of central ingredients (salmon, lamb) and a stressfully restrictive time limit (3.5 hours). But the converted gymnasium at the Culinary Institute of America was no Kitchen Stadium:...
With thanks to IforI The first is the best example - access parking at BlueWater shopping Mall in Kent. Incidentally it has one of those huge disabled toilets with changing room/plinth and hoist. It's a square only for badge holders that has the unique feature of high visibility and extra width at the back for rear entry vehicles like mine - otherwise you reverse out and often get minced by the flow...
Mr Danny Baker's most recent Saturday morning show on the BBC wireless featured a very serious item: he asked whether anyone had ever been told off as an adult. This reminded me of an encounter with Her Majesty's filth some 30-odd years ago that was in stark contrast to the utter professionalism I encountered from the Cheshire Police on Thursday just gone. I would hasten to add that unlike the majority...

The trust that is to take over running The Turner Contemporary on April fools day are to receive at least a million pounds a year from Kent County Council towards the gallery’s £2.6 million pounds annual running costs. As I said in yesterdays post it’s a substantial amount and having slept on this information I can only conclude I have made some mistake with the arithmetic, I would...
Betteshanger CC took the Kent Indoor Six-a-Side county title for the first time in the finals at the Kent Cricket Academy, and now progress to the regional play-offs.
Tjeklisten is a weekly (and quite popular) radio chart voted for by listeners of Danish Radio P3 and every Sunday afternoon the new list is published. Normally this is the playground for artists like Britney , Robbie , Madonna and (shudder) Lady GaGa (check the list of the 100 most popular artists in the history of the list and you’ll be hard pressed to find 10 decent ones), but every once in...

Selling The White Cliffs & Port of Dover to Nord-pas-de-Calais regional council will make perfect sense to europhiles. Inter-Reg plans are far advanced and England has already been carved up. Selling control of the port to the French will surely also impact on immigration into the country? The government has already sold off Westminster to Brussels and if they can sell Dover to the French what's...
