What’s all this fuss about Jeremy Corbyn and Labour’s Brexit strategy?
Despite Liberal Democrats, Blairites and most of the national media ramping up the righteous outrage about Corbyn stating the bleeding, bloody obvious (see e.g. http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2018/dec/23/labour-remain-jeremy-corbyn-brexit ) nothing has changed.

I wrote a piece titled “Mugged in Data Hell.”
It told the story of a CIO who was hoodwinked, cajoled, bullied, bribed and patronised into doing the wrong things, continuously.

Like many people around the world, I have certain expectations.
When I want some artwork done for a sales campaign, yes, I expect the people that I commission to show a lot of creativity.
When I want to read a novel, go to the theatre or simply chill out watching a movie, yes, I do expect some degree of creativity.
