Muhammadu Buhari has won the Presidential Election in Nigeria

He asked the Nigerian people to come out en-masse to vote to remove the incompetent Government from office

The former President Goodluck Jonathan promised to tackle corruption and armed insurgency – none of this has he done

Boko Haram has been his greatest failing together with the abduction of some 276 school girls

Many of whom have now been married off to Boko Haram rebels

Goodluck Jonathan vowed to find and release them

Jonathan was given international aid and support militarily, but still failed to achieve his objective of their safe return to their parents

The opposition, All Progressive Congress (APC) party, has won a bitterly contested Presidential Election

Muhammadu Buhari is a former military ruler

This victory marks the first time in Nigeria’s history…

…that an opposition party has been democratically elected to take over from a ruling party

Mr Buhari knows the scale of work he needs to do and the effective ways in which he needs to accomplish such a task

Muhammadu Buhari is more ruthless in his approach to doing what is right and just

He will be able to speed matters up regarding the overthrowing of Boko Haram, which has plagued this country for so long now

Mr Buhari will be able to bring about stability to Nigeria that Goodluck Jonathan had no idea of bringing about

There will be a complete overhaul of management and where competence will be high on his agenda

Muhammadu Buhari is no fool and will be able to oust those who have been swinging the lead for their own means

He is nevertheless a cautious man and he loves his people

Muhammadu Buhari will listen to reason and adopt policies, which he knows he can implement without going in over his head

A sound ruler, who has learnt from the mistakes of his predecessors how to rule and not be complacent, as others have been

Nigeria will be a safer place in his hands

The parents of a five year old rape victim have called for a new police investigation into her case

Essex police have apologised for the dreadful handling of the inquiry into the rape by a twelve year old boy in 2011

The boy was only given a caution and the case was not referred to the Crown Prosecution Services

Essex police admitted they got it wrong

The girl’s mother has said it was shocking that her daughter had been failed so significantly

The force have found numerous failures during its subsequent investigations

They were overseen by the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) into actions of the detectives

The girl’s parents are bringing in their own case, which is being looked at by an outside force

They are very angry over the multiple failures

These included one detective telling the twelve year old boy “to do it to someone older next time”

The officer concerned was only given a written warning

Three officers have been subjected to misconduct proceedings

The girl’s parents believe the investigation was insufficient and that its conclusions were watered down to protect police officers

The enormity of the failings by our present police force, up and down the country is appalling

With so many rapes and other atrocious incidents occurring, the public have been repeatedly failed by the police

It leaves a lot to be desired and heads must roll for their actions

Until personal responsibility is put on the heads of the police force, we will continue to employ second rate people for this important job

There are too many incidents that have been reported throughout the country, where the police have failed the public

They are leaving devastating consequences

More than 800,000 or one in five of all crimes reported to the police each year are not recorded by officers or dealt with

The greatest problems for victims are violent crimes with one in three going unrecorded

Regarding sexual offences, the Office of National Statistics said there were 22,116 recorded rapes last year – a rise of 29%

Of these 26% were unrecorded – they were not recorded as a crime!

For 3,842 reported crimes, offenders were given a caution or a penalty notice only

Inspectors of these crimes said there should have been a charge or a heavier penalty given

The general public have been too lenient

They have a right to have in place a police force that will come up to the job for which the public are paying

There have been too many cover ups within the police force as a whole

It now needs to be rid of these incompetent people and a new breed of responsible officers employed

The public deserve it and no longer should they have to put up with this shoddy behaviour and attitude

It is too rotten from the top down and should be overhauled with their pensions removed for bad service and incompetence

Too often the public have to put up with apologies that quite frankly do not hold water

They are just pie in the sky

Nothing has changed and it is high time the people of this country got a better deal rather than what they are currently receiving!

The Arab League Summit has convened to deal with instability, division and violence

This is as a result of the actions of many of the Middle East leaders

Don’t expect the Arab leaders to take responsibility for the dreadful situation they have helped to bring about

The Arab League is instead placing the blame, unsurprisingly on external forces, which are the extremists and terrorists such as IS

It is primarily the short comings and the exploitation of Arab governance that has led to this situation in the Middle East

The Yemeni Government did not include all the factions in their national agenda

Instead they gave all the advantages to the Sunni population

At the same time alienating the Shia Houthi tribes and the other factions in Yemen

One cannot deal exclusively with only one aspect of the population, because it suits them to do so, without upsetting the others

Democracy is about dealing with all the people, not just the few

That is why there is so much unrest in the Middle East, as they only have one agenda and that is authoritarianism and not democracy

The Arab contingent have blatantly ignored democracy

They need to involve all the people in all their lands, which is what they are so frightened to do for fear of losing their power

The Arab Summit is now calling for an established joint Arab military force

The whole region is suffering already from the excessive violence, which has affected and destroyed countless people’s lives

What is clear here, is that the Arabs have not got the experience or the expertise in mounting such an operation

They grossly lack the sophisticated logistical and operational plans that allow for different militaries to work jointly together

Even the UN forces have difficulty in mustering forces together and they are experienced and used to it!

The Arab force will never be able to confront the bigger issues, such as Syria and Israel

They rely on other nations to fight their battles for them

So they will only intervene in small wars, such as Yemen and Libya

This is where President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi is keen to exercise his power!

The Arab Summit has lent its support to Saudi Arabia in an effort to stem the tide of unrest on its boarders

The clash of big opponents, which is Saudi Arabia and Iran, they will not want to confront head on, so a backing off will occur

Then a compromise deal with the issues that face them jointly regarding IS will generate a positive outcome

Africa’s two female Presidents have joined forces for women

The only two female heads of states in Africa are Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf and Malawian President Joyce Banda

They have just committed to using their positions to improve the lives of women across the continent

Both Sirleaf and Banda have long championed women’s rights

On April 29 in Monrovia, two years into what the African Union (AU) has declared the “Women’s Decade”…

…they pledge to work together to accelerate their efforts

Sirleaf and Banda stood side by side and said, “This is our year and this is our decade”

These Presidents are out to empower women. Both have the strength and commitment to ensure women’s role in society is enhanced

Banda said, “There has never been a better time to advance women’s rights in Africa”

Sirleaf is a Nobel Peace Prize winner, she was elected as Africa’s first female President in 2005 and was re-elected in 2011

Her first term of office focussed on reconstructing the country devastated by two Civil Wars, one 1989-1996, and the second 1999-2003

Sirleaf set out on her second term as President by making women’s health a national priority

So devastating were Liberia’s civil wars that nearly a decade since the end of the conflict…

…the country is still in a state of reconciliation and reconstruction

In Malawi the male President Muthanika’s last year in office saw an economy crumbling under Government mismanagement

This was compounded by the withdrawal of donor aid because of human rights abuses

Now Banda, who took over, is barely one month into her time as President

Already there is concrete evidence that women’s advancement have been put on the agenda

The ratio of girls in education is almost equal to that of boys

Women’s health policies in Liberia will now half the high rate of maternal and new born deaths

There are more skilled birth attendants on all levels of health care

Banda has strengthened the voice of women in Government by appointing eight women in senior Cabinet

There are women in positions of Deputy Chief Secretary to the Government and also a Deputy Director Inspector General of Police

There is an advanced women’s economic empowerment with the introduction of an agricultural programme and market initiative

Maternal health and safe motherhood is still to be launched. Banda admits she is following in the footsteps of Sirleaf

Both Presidents have prioritised African Women’s Decade and they have agreed to accomplish these goals for the AU Women’s Decade

They know that women in Africa still face many challenges due to HIV and AIDS, poverty, conflict and harmful cultural practices

They believe they will work tirelessly together

These two ladies are no longer lonely among men anymore. They have each other for support

The more women that are in power the more society will advance, as they will not be drawn into hot-headed masculine wars

They will be the nurturers of society and the bringing back love and harmony that this world so badly needs

It is men’s aggressive nature that has brought this world to its knees

It is high time that women brought back balance in this world and repaired the damage caused by men!

China has an endangered animal called the “magic bunny.” It is the cutest endangered animal that you have ever heard of

A retired Chinese conservationist, Li Weidong, has been on this mission for over 30 years to document, film and protect it

The “magic bunny” is called Ili Pika and is named from the area it inhabits

It is a mysterious rabbit like mammal only found in China

With less than 1,000 left in the country, they are rarer than pandas

Mr Li first spotted the “magic bunny” in 1983 while he was mountain climbing

While sitting down on a rock, suddenly two bunny ears emerged from the crack in a nearby rock

The little thing was staring at him and Mr Li thought it was the most beautiful and bizarre creature he had ever seen

The Ili Pika live in holes between bare rocks at an altitude of 4,000 meters

They are used to living on these extremely cold plateaus and feed on herbs found in the mountains

In the past 30 years their habitat has shrunk by 71%. This is partly due to Climate Change and…

…partly because their grazing area has been taken over by the growing population at the bottom of the mountain

Mr Li has seen the mysterious Pika a few more times in 1990, but then he did not see one again for 24 years

There are many people who wish to protect this species, but with more attention put on it, it could endanger it still further

The Ili Pika is an ancient species and has been around for decades, we cannot allow it to disappear in front of our eyes

Conservationists, like Li Weidong, are doing their best to try to secure its future

However its delicate habitat must be maintained from being further eroded

After all, we all deserve to live on this planet

That is why we have such amazing creatures, all ‘God-given’ to survive with us together

Let us hope and pray they can maintain this amazing species!

For many years now women all over the world have been trying to stand up for the rights of women in all aspects of life

The American Elizabeth Cady Stanton was one of the foremost leaders of the women’s rights activists and philosophers of the 19th Century

She organised the first women’s rights convention in Seneca Falls, New York

She spoke out that women were equal to men and had the right to vote

In 1920 on Election Day millions of women exercised their right to vote

Emmeline Pankhurst born in Manchester, England was a huge supporter of women’s suffrage movement

She fought for women to keep their earnings and property acquired before and after marriage as well as getting the vote for women

Women have fought for their rights as equal citizens in this world

Campaigns are for the reforms for marriage and divorce laws, together with the expansion of education opportunities for girls

Today the fight for women is a constant battle against the laws and prejudice that prevent women from being equal

Throughout the world, discrimination against women is rampant and in some areas getting worse

It is all about ownership, which is how men see women – they are their property to do with as they like

Next year will mark the 20th Anniversary of the landmark World Conference on Women

The Beijing Declaration and the Platform for Action, was adopted unanimously by 189 countries

It is considered the key global policy document on gender equality

It will address critical areas such as women and poverty, violence against women and human rights of women

Women suffer from domestic violence in 70% in the world and it is slow to be dealt with

In Thailand police now are 40% women. Both women and male police are trained to deal with domestic violence

They wish to change the culture and to provide a safe area for women to come forth with their grievances

There are many highly influential women, who are trying to advocate raising awareness and to end the violence against women

Violence against women and girls is endemic in conflict zones. Its consequences are both devastating and lasting

Sexual and gender based violence are not just a product of war, but they are a strategy of combat. It is used to terrorise and humiliate

There are organisations which are working towards healing these survivors

For women to become equal & to be taken seriously, it needs for them to band together collectively & stand for what is right and just

It is only by standing up as a united force and demanding that violence and abuse will no longer be tolerated

Situations will eventually change

It is an uphill battle, but not impossible. Our ancestors did much for us

It is now up to women to continue and, with a united global voice, they will be heard!

The sequel to Nelson Mandela’s 1995 autobiography ‘Long Walk to Freedom’ will be published next year

This sequel Nelson Mandela began writing in 1998 towards the end of his five year presidential term

The book will give a candid and clear-eyed view of the many difficulties he faced while in office

The ‘Long Walk to Freedom’ covered Nelson Mandela’s early years, his political struggle against South Africa’s apartheid regime

It also contains the twenty seven years he spent in prison

The new book will be based on material from the Nelson Mandela Foundation’s archives

It will remind readers everywhere what he stood for!

Nelson Mandela was released from prison in 1990. He went on to win the presidency in South Africa’s first all-race election in 1994

He also won the Nobel Peace Prize alongside former South African President Frederick W de Klerk in 1993

This was for negotiating the end of white-minority rule

In 1999 Nelson Mandela stepped down from his presidency to concentrate on his various charity works

What will be so important about this book is the transition from freedom to power

This information will be very inspiring, because it tells you what to do when you have power

Nelson Mandela is one to the world’s greatest men

He was prepared to sacrificed his life to do what he felt was right for the good of all his people

Never once did he shirk from his responsibility and he always said it how it was

Truth and justice was what he believed in, never ever thinking, What is in it for me!

You have here a man of exceptional courage and conviction, who knew, like Winston Churchill, his place in history

Neither failed, but both have risen to the plate to do what is right and honourable

There are very few people in our world today that are able to match up to what they have achieved

The reason quite plainly is that they put themselves last and concentrated on doing the right thing for the Greater Good

The world now looks to see who else is able to fill these souls’ shoes that have the integrity and the willpower to do what is right?

With so many wars going on, there is no one to stand up and take charge

All have their own petty vested interests, which are not for the wellbeing of the people as a whole

History will judge them, they who have let their people down. So many in power had the chance to make something good happen!

There is coming again a saviour, who is prepared to take up the mantle and do what is right

For this person to succeed they cannot be exposed to any bribery, coercion or corruption

It is these traits which have tarnished so many, who were potentially good, but quite clearly not good enough

We all wait in anticipation, as the world now needs a new leader, who is both wise and loving

He will be able to steer this world into a better way of living for all

The fiasco of Netanyahu and his remarks that should he be elected, he would not entertain a two-state agreement with the Palestinians

This has gone down very badly and Netanyahu has been forced to retract his statement with an apology

His apology has been rejected

Let us now look at the situation: President Obama was not able to stop Netanyahu coming to Washington and humiliating him before Congress

President Obama will not force Israel and 650,000 armed settlers out of the West Bank

Israel and its American advocates control Congress, the Republicans and the Democratic parties and Hillary Clinton

The late Israeli PM Ariel Sharon reportedly said to an aide concerned about a negative US response

“Don’t worry about the US. I control the US.”

Israel’s partisans hold important influence over France’s Government and ruling Socialist Party

France secretly supplied Israel with the nuclear weapons capability in the 1950’s

Yet Israel fights hard to prevent Iran having any nuclear facilities for fear that they could make nuclear weapons

Both of Britain’s parties are similarly beholden to pro-Israel donors

Germany has supplied Israel with submarines to carry nuclear-tipped cruise missiles

Even Vladimir Putin is pro-Israel with one million Russians now living in Israel

After the Israeli election, polls have shown that 75% of Israelis oppose the creation of a Palestinian state

They don’t want to live near Arabs, whom they call “Wild Animals”, which is an absolute disgrace!

Although Israelis moan about their economic woes, they are given $3 billion in annual US aid

Israel’s military and high tech industries are now world leaders

As it now stands, Israel’s military might could conquer the central Middle East, including Egypt and Saudi Arabia in a week

With over 200 nuclear weapons, why do you think that Israel thinks it is unassailable?

Israel controls the flow of US aid that keeps Egypt from starving, thanks to its hammerlock on Congress

As for the Palestinians, there appears no hope

Netanyahu has declared no Palestinian state at the end of this election

He will of course continue flirting with the US and EU over this worn-out question

He will make small concessions to allow western allies to continue with this charade that peace talks are still alive

The UN Human Rights Council in Geneva have criticised Israel’s conduct in the July-August conflict and the ferocity of destruction

The devastation on Gaza was highly disproportional to warrant such attacks

It has criticised Israel’s blockade on Gaza as a stranglehold on Palestinians, yet they will do nothing!

Israelis have shown they do not want to be a part of the Arab world any more than White South Africans wanted to join black Africa

They want to be alone behind their high walls and for the Arab population to be locked away in tribal reservations

Israel has it all – the land, the water and the power to control everything that is within their grasp

They will stop at nothing to maintain it

The only thing that can bring down their power to control the world is for a Higher Power than them, which will be shown to them yet again

They think they are invincible and, on the surface having everybody in their pockets, it certainly looks that way

Never should one underestimate a Supreme Power that can change situations and where the right to control is taken away from them for good!

Great Britain is one of the most tolerate of societies anywhere in the world

From the Second World War Great Britain has allowed immigrants in from all four corners of the globe

Today we enjoy one of the most diverse societies and our culture has been enriched by its diversity and our citizens have all benefitted

It is now that our tolerant society, praised and admired throughout the globe, is under threat from extremists factions

They see our generosity of spirit as a weakness, as opposed to their own hard-line agenda

Home Secretary Theresa May has now made the stance that this country will no longer tolerate this behaviour of Islamic extremists

It is they who wish to destroy this country and its tolerant way of life

Mrs May will no longer tolerate their behaviour, which rejects British values and our way of living

Enough is now enough!

Theresa May has stated that Britain has responsibilities as well as rights, all must respect the laws, institutions & the rights of others

No one holds a gun to another person’s head and says they must remain in this country

If you cannot abide by the laws and respect all who wish to live here – then leave!

Leave this pleasant land and go to another which suits your purpose – if they will have you

There is a plan of action to ban hate preachers, who purposely incite violence and hatred and wish to ignore British values

Islamic extremists have been ousted out from other countries, including Arab ones

Their intolerance caused pain, suffering and the killings of innocent people

All this because those souls did not accept this extremist warped ideology

These extremist hateful beliefs will now be exposed

It is a tragedy that these small bands of extremists are British born and who now reject our values

Again if they feel they can do better, then go elsewhere

This country does not want or need you. You are all free to go!

These extremists will find that it is not so easy to express their views in other countries

Their behaviour will not be tolerated and in a much more rigid way imprisonment is their likely outcome

As it was in the post war days in the 1950’s…

…it was far easier to be a Communist in a British tolerant society than it was to be a Communist in a Communist country

In Communist countries there were restrictions and losses of privileges

Those who left Britain at that time to experience their ideology found hardships of a very constrictive life

Their liberties were restricted and life was not that rosy existence they imagined it would be

They realised they had made a mistake and should have remained in Britain to continue enjoying freedom of speech

All these liberties they took so much for granted

The grass always seems greener on the other side of the fence in one’s imagination, but not when reality strikes

Extremists, in all their forms, need to be defeated for the sake of the Greater Good

This is for all the people, who view Britain as a great country, which embraces all creeds to live and work together for a better society

It is the extremists who are selfish and devoid of love and compassion. That is the damaging element which will be defeated!

At last something good has come out of India!

An award known as the “Nobel Prize for Water” has been given to an Indian campaigner, who brought water to 1,000 villages

The judges of the Stockholm Water Prize say his methods have prevented floods, restored soil and rivers and brought back wildlife

The prize winner, Rajendra Singh, is dubbed the “Water Man of India”

Mr Singh’s methods are cheap, simple and effective and his ideas should be followed worldwide

Mr Singh uses a modern version and ancient Indian techniques of harvesting rainwater

This is done by building low level banks of earth to hold back the flow of water in the wet rainy season

This then allows for the water to seep into the dry ground for future use

Mr Singh first trained as a medic, but his local villagers said their greatest need over health care was drinking water

What ground water there was from the rainy season had been sucked dry by farmers, which caused the water to disappear very quickly

This then made the crops fail – rivers, forests and wildlife also disappeared and the people left to go to the cities

Mr Singh has stated that this century of exploitation, pollution and encroachment has caused so many problems

To stop this, one has to convert the war on water into peace – that is his life’s goal

The Stockholm International Water Institute, who presented this prize, said his lessons will be essential

Climate Change is altering weather patterns around the world

As the world demand for water ever increases, humanity must learn to take better care of our water

It is today’s water that cannot be solved by science and technology alone

This is a human problem

It is only by right governance and leadership from those in the know, together with social cohesion, that these matters can be solved

Rajendra Singh’s lifetime work has been in building up social capacity to solve local water problems

This has been done through human participation, action and the empowerment of women

He has also linked in with the indigenous knowhow, assisted with scientific and technical skills

This award was equally applauded by Katherine Pygott, who is a leading UK water engineer

She has already drawn on Mr Singh’s work to prevent flooding in the UK

It is only by having people who have the vision to save, not only Mankind, but the environment as well, that this planet will be saved

There is too much destruction to life and the environment by ruthless greedy people

It is their intention to destroy forever what is both sacred and holy 

God gave this world with all its goodness to support life in every capacity and Mankind has tried to obliterate all that is good

Until humanity starts to see what is right and how we can resolve important issues, we are not fit to remain on this earth

We will continue to leave a world of desolation for future generations to be hurt by

Have we no conscience?

It is high time that a person like Rajendra Singh was hailed as a saviour

Others, whose lives have been dedicated to saving us all, must also be acclaimed

We need to redress the balance to proclaim those who do good deeds instead of continually advertising those who wish to destroy

The media has to rectify and not to glorify wrong doings as sensational news

They need to pronounce to the highest those who do right, as a permanent example to us all!

They too have an obligation to save society and not wish its downfall!

New evidence has been uncovered over the disgraceful behaviour of a British Airways pilot, who sexually assaulted at least 50 children

These assaults occurred in Kenya and Uganda between 2001 and 2013

It has now come to light that BA staff were told of concerns about Simon Wood’s behaviour during that time

The airline are said to be shocked and horrified by these statements and so they should be

Neglect on their part to follow up concerns has led to the destruction of so many lives

A number of victims are now suing the airline for compensation

One could argue this is rather harsh

But until institutions start to take a more proactive approach to paedophilia, then these kinds of situations continue

The public & institutions need to wake up to the fact that these predatory people are out there & are more prevalent than one imagines 

These people destroy lives, far worse than killing as these violations damage a person for the rest of their lives

They become the living dead, alive but dead inside, not ever able to function

These paedophiles are in every walk of society, they are the uncles, the husbands, the grandfathers and fathers of our societies

They are the judges, the police, the doctors, the priests. They are in every spectrum of life and they are all sick

They all need professional help so that this disease can be curbed. They all know it is wrong, but cannot control their sickness

So to protect our young children, both female and male alike, we all must be diligent

When a concern is brought to our attention then it must be taken very seriously

We can no longer afford to do nothing and to say it never happened

We need to be alerted to the possibility that it can even be in our own family

In the case of Simon Woods, aged 54, he flew regularly on these routes to Kenya and Uganda for more than a decade

He even volunteered at several charities including an AIDS orphanage. Doesn’t this modus operandi sound familiar?

Finally Wood was arrested in July 2013 by police who were given an anonymous tip-off

He was charged with indecent assault and possessing indecent images

In August, shortly before he was due in court, he killed himself

It has now emerged that he was first arrested over an indecent assault allegation in the UK in 2001

Prosecutors ruled that there was insufficient evidence to charge him

The fact that he was already arrested should have been flagged up

Could there be other victims, as these things are never in isolation?

Until the right investigations take place then nothing can really be achieved

By dealing with matters properly, so many other lives would have been saved

The very high costs of running the European Parliament has soared to £1,332 billion per year

This is £838 million more than Westminster

This appallingly high running cost for the European Parliament has been exposed

The British Government was asked for comparative costs between the European Parliament and Westminster

Lord Sassoon, the Commercial Secretary to the Treasury, confirmed in 2011-2012 that the cost was £1,332 billion

This compared with £494 million for Westminster, which included both the House of Commons and House of Lords

The cost for an MEP was £1.79 million each, compared with just £0.59 million per member of the House of Commons

Peers cost a mere £0.13 million

Lord Stoddart, an independent Labour Peer, said these are eye watering figures and it makes Westminster look very good value for money

The European Parliament costs £838 million per annum more than the combined costs of the Houses of Parliament and the House of Lords

The British Government is constantly on the lookout for ways to save money to reduce the deficit

It should now take a serious look at the contributions to the cost of running the European Parliament

This institution does not hold proper debates and its members cannot even introduce a Private Members Bill

It merely acts as a rubber stamp for the unelected European Commission’s legislative proposals

The number of MEP’s has now risen from 736 to 754 since these figures were produced, so even these figures fall short of the real costs

This is an absolute disgrace and when countries in the European Market are struggling to balance their books for their countries…

…this Parliament can keep expanding and asking for more money to feed their greedy little ways

Until the European Parliament is overhauled, it becomes a runaway train on very expensive tracks. No wonder they call it the gravy train 

Expensive luncheons and hotels all expenses paid for, for doing next to nothing

What a disgrace! Will anybody do anything about it?

We don’t think so. Who would wish to end such a lucrative social club?

At last, a Government Minister in Argentina has the guts to do something positive in this world

Esteban Bullrich is an Education Minister, who has stopped waves of teachers’ strikes

By giving every teacher his mobile number he has invited teachers to phone him if they have any questions, comments or complaints for him

He is the Minister in charge of all the schools in Buenos Aires and had inherited a system plagued by teaching union walk outs

He came into office as the third Education Minister in twelve days

He decided to publish his personal mobile number as a way of opening a direct dialogue

This direct action brought down the number of strikes from fourteen a year to none in the past four years

Mr Bullrich decided to hand out his number as a way of breaking a culture of distrust and confrontations

These were between politicians and teachers’ representatives

The teachers’ strikes had become a chronic problem, with ministers only lasting a short time in office

Mr Bullrich was able to negotiate deals with seventeen separate teacher unions in Buenos Aires

It meant that staff of 1,200 schools has his number

He told teachers if you have a problem then just ring me and it will get sorted out and it was

This man can show the world that always doing the right thing & listening to people’s legitimate problems, solutions can always be found

It is always about courage and doing what is right in the face of what seems like impossible odds

All one needs is the will and open-mindedness to take on these challenges, which others are not prepared to do!

Perhaps Mr Bullrich should enrol in the UN. He might actually get something done and do a better job?

Mr Bullrich is commended for his unstinting devotion to doing what is intrinsically right

Nigeria’s ex-military ruler, Sani Abacha stole money from the state oil company and it was put overseas in European banks for his use

Sani Abacha ruled Nigeria with an iron fist from 1993 until his death in 1998

Soon after, Nigeria’s new rulers asked Switzerland to recover the $2.2bn that he stashed away in European banks

An amount of $380m has already been seized in 2006 in Luxembourg on the request of the Swiss authorities

In addition Switzerland has already returned $700m following appeals from Nigeria

The safe transfer of monies is being conducted under the supervision of the World Bank

This ends a 16 year long case against the Abacha family

Nigeria is still plagued by massive corruption

Until it can get its act together and bring about transparency, nothing can proceed in the right way

Greed by politicians only brings hardship to the people of Nigeria

Corruption breeds corruption and fuels dissent and outrage

Extreme factions like Boko Haram are as a result of a broken Government and people

Where there is a weak government, this allows for militant groups to take hold

Boko Haram is fighting for control and to form an Islamic state encompassing several states of northern Nigeria

This violence has left more than 13,000 people dead since 2009 and forced 1.5 million others to flee their homes

The expense and devastation to the country is depleted further by what corrupt politicians stash away

How can Governments around the world support regimes that ask for help for their people when they themselves are not honest?

In the end, no matter how long it takes, the truth will always emerge and the horrors of corruption are always exposed

It is high time that Nigeria with all its natural wealth comes clean and distributes this wealth to allow all the people to prosper

This gives the people a chance to have a Global standing in the world today

The people deserve it and politicians are reminded that they are there to serve the people

They are not there to line their pockets, which in the end they will lose anyway

As has already been the case of the Abacha family!

It is an absolute disgrace that yet again people who are in power become a law unto themselves

Cyril Smith sexually abused his victims and continually got away with it

It is one law for the common man and one law for the violators of the law who have the power to do so!

The people can never have any faith in a Police Force or Government that allows individuals to flagrantly oppose and undermine the law

They are totally blind to the lifetime’s injury that has been inflicted on these victims by these sexual predators

Until a complete renewal of the Police Force and the political system is overhauled, then no one in this country is safe

Children were gathered up & used for sex parties by Cyril Smith, high-ranking policemen & high powered army officers, who need to be exposed

Until this cancer of sick minded people is rooted out, the public and the innocent and vulnerable, have no chance to a life

We must all understand that victims, who have been damaged by these heinous crimes of sexual abuse, have suffered severe pain

Their lives were completely ruined for all time, both mentally and physically

They were scared for life, just to satisfy some sick perverted minds

Where is our justice system when undercover police have investigated these paedophile rings & have obtained the evidence to put them away?

They are then forced to stop their investigation

Threats against them were imposed by those who had power over them, regardless of the law!

It is this sordid threat of power & control, which opposes the law, because it suits them to abuse it, that has to be removed at the root

This then will allow victims to come forward knowing that they can finally believe in a judicial system

Justice must protect them and they need a Government which actually cares

The undercover policemen, trying to do their job to expose those paedophiles, should be heard

They must be supported by the state as is their duty to do so

The public outcry over Jimmy Savile and other paedophiles, together with MPs & Cyril Smith, have to be aired publically & dealt with

It is high time that this country sought justice and compensation for these victims, whose lives have been damaged for all time

The public demand it!

If the Government cannot do its business, what is the point of having a Government in power and a police force in situ?

They cannot and in this case will not, protect the public?

It is an absolute travesty of justice and all should be hauled over the coals for their part in these heinous crimes against humanity

The Government, Army and the Police Force responsible for putting a halt to these known investigations need to hang their heads in shame

They equally must bear the guilt of damage on these victims, as much as the perpetrators of these crimes

All is known in the eyes of God!

When will the right justice ever seen to be done?

Does it need for the public to take the law into their own hands before institutions sit up?

They must take notice and listen.  They must take the responsibility for which they were elected

Until Climate Change is fully addressed and strong action taken, the likes of Cyclone Pam will continue to wipe out parts of the world

Cyclone Pam has literally wiped out development in Vanuatu

This development had taken years to complete and with one cyclone all has been wiped out

The storm has devastated many parts of the country and its adjoining islands

Tragic as this is, Climate Change is happening on a daily basis

Until something is done about it people and countries will continue to suffer

Current data suggests we need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in developed countries by at least 80% by 2050

This is to have a chance of staying below the average temperature rise of over 2%

Factory farming produces greenhouse gases throughout the supply chain

Factory farmed beef requires twice as much fossil fuel energy input as pasture-reared beef

Factory farming requires large amounts of energy to function. This isn’t just to rear the animals, but to grow the feed that they need

The feed alone takes up 75% of the total energy required. The rest is needed for heating and lighting and ventilation

Gases, such as methane and nitrous oxide, are produced in significant quantities & these are released from animal waste and fertiliser use

Livestock farming produces 37% and 65% respectively of our global methane and nitrous oxide. Both gases are more potent then carbon dioxide

Forests clearance to grow crops and rear animals releases vital carbon ‘sinks’

This releases gases previously stored in the soil and vegetation

The effects of global Climate Change include more frequent wildfires, longer periods of drought and…

…an increase in the number, duration and intensity of tropical storms

Glaciers are shrinking, ice on rivers and lakes break up earlier

Plant and animal ranges have shifted and trees are flowering sooner

In addition, there are higher sea levels and longer intense heatwaves

All aspects of life are being affected

Infrastructure, agriculture and fisheries, together with our ecosystems are being increasingly compromised

The sea levels rise and erosion of coastal areas are an additional concern

Oceans have more acidity, which poses major threats to our seas

There are more insect outbreaks and more tree disease

The declining water supplies reduce agriculture yields

There are also health problems in our cities due to the heat

The President of Vanuatu, where Cyclone Pam struck, has seen the changing weather patterns of rising seas and heavier than average rain

All over the world we have seen these incidents happening to our own countries, yet the Governments still continue to do precious little

It is the incompetence of these Governments that put all our lives in jeopardy, because nobody wants to do anything about it!

Once again India is in the news for rape and vandalism 

This time the rape was on an elderly nun! Have the men of India no shame?

The Indian Government is not doing enough to sort out this extreme mental intolerance of women

It is high time the culture of abuse on women was changed. We are after all in the 21st century

These people behave like barbarians with no conscience only violence in their minds

Six men, who gang raped an elderly nun of 74 years old, are being searched for by police

The gang ransacked a convent school and stole money before entering into the convent itself

Security cameras inside the Convent of Jesus and Mary school show the faces of the six men, who carried out the assault

There are only three sisters in this community. One sister, who was badly molested, the other two and a guard were tied to chairs

The men vandalised the chapel, broke into the tabernacle on the altar and took away the chalice that holds the holy sacrament

This attack comes at a time of growing concern about sexual violence against women

Christian groups have been increasingly targeted

The Indian Government needs to take a precedent on this continuous abuse on women

Until harsher penalties are enforced and there is a deterrent put into place then the general public will take action

Vigilante groups will be formed and put in place, the punishments that the local authorities are not skilled in doing

The Government and the local authorities will have no choice, but to act quicker if they wish to avoid this happening

The people of India will no longer tolerate this abuse on any females whether they are very young or old

The time has come for extensive action to take place or India will lose its already fragile credibility within the world forum

India will no longer be able to brush this kind of barbarism under the carpet, as has been its policy in the past

Now the time has come to face up to the enormity of this problem and to set aside an agenda to deal with their lacking cultural system

The people of India will not wait any longer!

Terry Pratchett, who died on the 12th March, was just 66 years old

He was an English author of fantasy novels and especially comical works

His best known work was his Discworld novel, the Colour of Magic, which was published in 1983

He sold 85 million books worldwide in 37 languages and was the UK’s bestselling author in the 1990’s

In December 2007 he announced he was suffering from the early onset of Alzheimer’s disease

He filmed a television programme chronicling his experience of the disease for the BBC

The world has now lost one of its brightest, sharpest minds. He died entirely naturally and unassisted

All who read him know Discworld was his vehicle to satirise this world, which he did so brilliantly

He did it with great skill, enormous humour and constant invention

He called his Alzheimer’s disease an “embuggerance” and faced it bravely and publically

Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive degenerative condition that involves the loss and dysfunction of the brain cells

Four years ago, Sir Terry featured in a film documentary about suicide

He accompanied a man with Motor Neurone Disease to the Dignitas clinic in Switzerland to see him take the lethal dose of barbiturates

He was asked why he made that film and he said it was because he was appalled at the state of the law

He said the Government here in the UK has always turned its back on it and he was ashamed

The British people had to drag themselves to Switzerland at considerable cost in order to get the services they were hoping for

Hilary Evans is director of Alzheimer’s Research UK for whom Terry Pratchett was a patron

She said Sir Terry’s legacy to Dementia Research is huge, both financially and is an enormous motivation to our supporters and scientists

When he announced the inaugural Terry Pratchett Research Fellowship in 2010…

…he insisted on a single word to be engraved on the trophy, “Strive”

Our scientists continue to act upon this powerful call

They will push forward with the research that will eventually defeat this disease from which Sir Terry suffered

Sarah Wootton, chief executive of Dignity in Dying, called him a ‘committed campaigner’ for assisted dying

Terry Pritchett was often found saying, “It’s time we learned to be as good at dying as we are at living”

His brave approach to confronting issues of death, including his own, was a heartfelt demonstration of dignity

It has been said he is a lovely man, kind and thoughtful and took people to his heart. It was a pleasure to know him

This man changed the way Dementia is seen and understood. He will be sorely missed

He is now in the greatest adventure of his life & can continue to write if he wishes, but in another dimension, with total clarity of mind

The disgraceful failing situation of the UN Security Council to implement solutions to the Syrian conflict, is beyond belief

Humanitarian agencies have tried their best under extreme hardship and opposition from Bashar al-Assad

They still have been found wanting

The Syrian people have faced their worse year in the many killings that continue unabated day in and day out

Bashar al-Assad still holds the main position of power

The UN still believe they can bring in a political solution that will sort out this war

Bashar al-Assad will never surrender

His people are just pawns in his struggle to maintain his power with Russia being his main backup

The naiveté of the UN Security Council is mind-blowing and really they are not fit for purpose

They have achieved precious little in this four year war

Until a proper strategy to remove this President from power occurs, the country which is already destroyed, will take decades to climb back

It is now up to the international nations to bring about a consensus for military action, where new strategies are formed

A greater force will be able to push through an agenda to finally save the Syrian people

This nation has suffered enough, while the rest of the world continues to turn a blind eye

The dysfunctional UN Security Council should be ashamed of themselves for not dealing with these issues in a more effective way

There needs to be solutions for the sake of the Syrian people and not what is best for Bashar al-Assad!

It was after Jackson’s resignation that another low-key demonstration occurred, outside Ferguson’s police headquarters

It was when the crowds were starting to break up that shots were heard and two officers were seriously injured

The riots, which have continued, show the hugely long-term frustration over a system that is painfully slow to change

The people have had enough and every day they suffer injustice by the biased way the police deal with them

Ferguson has now finally been given enough rope to hang themselves

The injustice remains rife throughout America

Until integration and equality start to take hold then these problems will remain simmering and finally come to the boil

There is no getting away from it, America has never been white

It was the first nation American Indians, who are the true Americans here and the white man has all but tried to wipe them out

Now a role reversal is happening and it will be other coloured skinned people, who will take the place of the white man

They will have to revise their thinking. They will no longer be in the majority!

Lessons here need to be learnt and tolerance for all races is required now!

An illegal market in children has developed in China in which babies are being sold online

The Chinese police say that there is an estimated 20,000 children abducted each year

Chinese state media suggests the true figure could be as high as 200,000 per year

A baby boy sells for $16,000. This is double the price for a girl

A few days before the Chinese New Year in February 2007, a man called Xiao Chaohua was with his young son playing on a nearby beach

They played sandcastles and paddled in the surf. They were so happy and his father took lots of pictures of his son

Later that day his son asked his father if he could buy his favourite snack from a grocery shop around the corner

His ten year sister was to accompany him. The children got separated and that was the last Xiao saw of his son

Xiao looked everywhere for his son, even the police said there is no point in looking as he had probably been snatched

Xiao decided, after many months looking for his son, to finally sell his shop and he bought a van

His wife works in a shoe factory and his daughter is looked after by grandparents

Xiao has travelled the length and breadth of China offering a reward for any information on his son

Posted pictures are all over the country and still there is no sign of his son

Years have now gone by and there still is no sign of his son

This family, as with so many others, is heartbroken

Once abducted children are sold for adoption and forced to work as beggars for criminal gangs, the vast majority are lost forever

Child trafficking first received wide publicity in China 12 years ago, when police discovered 28 babies in the back of a bus

They had been drugged to keep them quiet and put into nylon bags, where one died of suffocation

These traffickers were caught and sentenced to death

Traffickers have become more sophisticated now and are selling these babies online

Four criminal gangs working in this way were caught and this led to 1,094 arrests and the rescue of 382 babies

With approximately 200,000 children and babies being captured and sold, 382 babies is nothing!

The Chinese Government has a real problem and it is only by public outcry that more must be done to safeguard these vulnerable children

Are they listening and do they even care?

President Dilma Rousseff has signed a new law in Brazil to enforce tough new penalties for the killing of women and girls

Murders linked to domestic violence will now carry sentences of between twelve and thirty years

She is sending out a clear message to all women that the state will protect them

It is known that fifteen women are killed daily in Brazil

In other cases, such as in the killing of pregnant women, women who have just given birth, girls under fourteen or women over sixty…

…the law now provides even longer jail sentences

This new legislation alters the criminal code to describe femicide as…

…any crime that involves domestic violence, contempt or discrimination against women

Similar legislation has already been introduced in another Latin American country, El Salvador

This country has the highest murder rate of women in the world

President Rousseff has taken this legislation further on from her predecessor

He introduced a law known as “the Maria da Penha” law

This was done in tribute to Maria da Penha Maia, a woman whose ex-husband beat her for fourteen years

Twice he attempted to murder her and left her a paraplegic

She is a notable figure in the movement for women’s rights in Brazil

Maximum sentences are imposed with orders to remove abusers from the home

They are banned from the proximity of women and children who were attacked

Other legislation in place requires all public hospitals to provide treatment against sexually transmitted diseases…

…such as HIV/Aids for rape victims 

This allows victims to be given emergency contraception and in the case of a pregnancy they have the right to an abortion

This is still illegal in Brazil in most cases

Women the world over have to join together to change the ideological climate that men constantly abuse women

Many men see it as their right to do so

Women are not considered part of society, but as a mere chattel that in some instances is lower than an animal

It is only when women join together worldwide that the message for change and women’s rights becomes more spoken about

All is far too slow and the rights of women have not penetrated many cultures

As we are well aware, in India rapes occur every 20 minutes and in the USA rapes are every 6.2 minutes

It is outrageous that more in the way of legislation is not taken up

Governments will only act when forced to do so, because the climate by the victims is no longer silent

It is the victims who must speak out

As in the case of Mala Yousafzai, the Pakistani school girl who was boarding her school bus

A gunman asked for her name and then pointed a pistol to her head and fired three shots

One bullet hit the left side of her forehead, travelled down under her skin through the length of her face and penetrated her shoulder

She was left unconscious and critical

Later her condition began to improve and she was transferred to a hospital in Great Britain for delicate reconstructive surgery

Her assassination sparked a national and international outcry and support for Mala

As a result this incident has ratified Pakistan’s first Right to Education Bill

Mala works now for the rights of education and for women!

Why does it need to take such violent happenings before Governments around the world wake up?

It is their own responsibility to protect half of their population

The Eurozone is not viable in its current form, which has been stated by one of the UK’s successful fund managers Neil Woodford

A good example of the Eurozone’s economic incompatibility can be found in the labour mobility

This represents one of the most marked differences between the US states and the Eurozone countries

If employment rises in Detroit because the demand for cars falls, workers can move to a state where demands for work are needed

This eases Detroit’s unemployment problems

America does this frequently

This is not true of Europe with their labour markets, which they are mainly due to culture and language

There is no common language in Europe and there would be friction if there was a common language

So if there was a shock demand in Detroit, it would not put the dollar at risk

Washington would transfer money to Motor City to allow for a rebalancing to occur

This does not happen in Europe for many countries have surrendered their economic self-determination

The Germans have ignored this pressing need for action in their shared currency

Everyone can see Germany’s role in this tale

Either agree to a fiscal integration, debt mutualisation and a genuine guarantee of the currency or…

…unlock the system and give the Eurozone countries back their self-determination and bring this project to its conclusion

No matter what the language is that is spoken…

…the investors can see the current crisis for what it really is, a vote of no confidence in the currency itself

A documentary highlighting China’s severe pollution problem has been removed from websites

The documentary called “Under the Dome” explains the social and health costs issues of pollution

It has already been watched by more than a 100 million people online

This has now sparked off huge debates

Premier Li Keqiang has called pollution a blight on their people’s lives

The newly appointed Environment Protection Minister has praised the documentary

It is the huge popular impact that this film has made, which has produced nervousness with the communist authorities

At the start of the documentary a six year old girl living in the coal mining province of Shanxi was interviewed

This is the most polluted place on earth

When asked, “Have you seen the stars?” The reply was, “No!”

“Have you seen a blue sky?”  The reply was, “Only little bits of blue.”

“Have you seen white clouds?”  Again the answer was, “No!”

This film has already been watched more than 100 million times

It is high time the Chinese Government saved their citizens against the numerous diseases they are suffering with every day

“Do they have a conscience?”  The answer has to be, “No, otherwise they would have done something about this decades ago”

It is up to the people themselves, who have to fight for their lives if they wish to live any longer

Too many have died and are dying and nothing has changed!

The Pakistani authorities have renamed 107 schools after the victims of last year’s massacre by the Taliban on a school in Peshawar

Already more than 60 schools are now bearing the names of the victims of the attack

The parents of those victims have already given their approval

The Taliban gunmen killed more than 150 pupils and teachers at the school on 16th December 2014

The authorities have promised to crack down on these militants

Teachers are now being given firearm’s training and they will be able to carry weapons in class

The re-naming of the schools is meant as a memorial to all the victims

This sends out a message to the militants they cannot stop education

The children and teachers died because of wanting education and the terrorists don’t want them to have it!

In addition to the renaming of the schools, the central government is giving out the highest civil award for bravery to all the victims

This is sending out a clear message that these victims are martyrs to a cause they firmly believe in

They are prepared if necessary to die for it

The Government has paid out $20,000 to each of the victims’ families

It is a small but necessary gesture for the sacrifices these young souls made

They were after all the future of Pakistan and valuable to the community

The ancient Assyrian city of Nimrud has been vandalised by Islamic State militants

The ancient site was founded in the 13th Century BC and houses the royal tomb of Nimrud

The city was given the name of Nimrud in modern times after the Biblical Nimrod, a legendary hunting hero

This city was the capital of the Assyrian Empire for over 150 years

The city was known as Calah, which is in the Bible

The ruins of this magnificent city were found within 1 kilometre of the modern day Assyrian village of Noomanea, not far from Mosul

Archaeologists have revealed remarkable bas-reliefs, ivories and sculptures

The treasures of Nimrud were unearthed in excavations and some 613 pieces of gold jewellery and precious stones were collected

These treasures had been put away during the Iraq War in bank vaults to protect them

They have been stored safely for twelve years and have again been rediscovered

Nimrud’s various monuments face threats of demolition

IS have already destroyed other holy sites including the Mosque of the Prophet Jonah in Mosul

IS have announced their intentions to destroyed pre-Islamic artefacts, as they offend their religious views

They have already destroyed artefacts from Nimrud

This deliberate destruction of cultural heritage constitutes a war crime and cannot go unpunished

It is down to all religious leaders in the region to stand up

They must remind everyone that there is absolutely no political justification for the destruction of humanity’s cultural heritage

This destruction continues to demonstrate the kind of barbarians these people are!

The Duke of Cambridge has condemned the illegal wildlife trading 

On his four day tour of China, he has been speaking out on the vicious forms of criminality that erodes the rule of law

It fuels conflict and may even fund terrorism

Prince William made this speech after visiting an Elephant sanctuary in the south western province of Yunnan

China is a huge consumer of ivory and Prince William is trying to raise awareness of this illegal trading

He is also President of the organisation United for Wildlife and is active in trying to save the Rhino as well

The greatest threat to Elephants worldwide today is not local farmers protecting their livelihoods

It is the ruthless organised poachers and traffickers

Prince William talked about how the world is hurtling towards Elephants becoming extinct in the wild

This would be an immeasurable loss to humanity

On this trip he was also able to feed a 13 year old female Asian Elephant, who was recovering from a leg wound caused by a trap

The more international condemnation that is given to the various countries whose demand for ivory is the greatest…

…then hopefully China will change

Instead of China having just a one year ban on ivory imports, they will extend it to a complete ban

Time & international condemnation & pressure against ivory poaching is the only way to give these wonderful mammals a chance to survive

We owe it to them to continue this fight!

The director of a Russian museum, which was originally a Stalin-era prison camp, has now been taken over by the Russian authorities

All references to Stalin’s dictatorship crimes have been removed

This Stalin camp or Perm-36 is the only one surviving with all its buildings dating back to the Stalin terror

The non-governmental group, who have been running the museum, are being replaced by government officials

In its day millions of Soviet citizens were sent to labour camps in the notorious Gulag System…

…or shot, during Stalin’s hard-line communist rule

The worst of these repressions took place in 1930s

Portraits of Stalin were removed after the scales of his crimes were revealed

The memorial of the camp won’t disappear, but the new people taking it over will change its content

It will become a museum about a camp system and not about political prisoners

They don’t talk about the repression or about Stalin

During the life of this camp, there were up to 3,000 political prisoners under Stalin’s rule, about 1,000 under Leonid Brezhnev in 1970s

Many of the prisoners were Ukraine nationals and Baltic republics

These nationalists are vilified in today’s state media

The camp was finally closed in 1988 and became a museum in 1996

The museum’s changeover is less about the rehabilitation of Stalin, more in connection with the political situation in the country today

In the days of the cold war and before, if Russian citizens wanted to visit another town or city they would need to apply for a permit

If the reason for wanting to travel did not stand up to scrutiny then permission to travel was denied!

Russia is slowly returning to this era

Know there are more Russians with money living in London and the UK than anywhere else in the world

The freedom we all take for granted is what they are after, so they can conduct their businesses without Russia’s prying eyes

The world is now seeing another creation of a Stalin-type state, where enormous power is in the hands of one man

Under President Putin, there is no need now for repression as they are either shot or in jail

The Russian people have become obedient

The political system is returning to totalitarianism and the West wants to do business with this country?

Understand there are more citizens trying to leave Russia then running to get in

We can all understand why!

Out of the tragedy of the Ebola virus something constructive will finally come out of it

The IMF has pledged $187m of financial aid to support Sierra Leone’s struggling economy

A sum of $80m will be given immediately to help this country end the Ebola outbreak and recover from its devastating effects

There will be a long term programme to deal with fighting this disease from every angle

Nearly 10,000 people have already died as a result of this disease, the vast majority in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone

There is still a struggle to battle this epidemic and so continuous hard work, not only to contain it but to help eradicate it, is ongoing

World leaders together with the Presidents of all three of the worst hit nations are in Brussels

They are to discuss ways of rebuilding their economies

They will also deal with the long term issues regarding this disease

Although there have been nearly 10,000 deaths there were 23,913 confirmed cases

The survival rate is increasing, as early detection goes a long way in safeguarding against future cases materialising

Their struggle is a long and arduous one, but help now is finally being given on a massive scale – thank God!

Prime Minister Netanyahu’s modus operandi is to get another term in office

With Israeli elections just around the corner he wishes to portray himself as a State leader

He thinks he can gain much support from the US and its many Jewish friends

He hopes by getting their approval he will be able to win hands down

His power crazy ideas are causing a strong detrimental effect, not only in Israel but in Washington as well

They are sick to death of his constant moaning and rhetoric regarding Iran’s nuclear fuel programme

These are just smokescreens for the bigger picture of where he wants to be

This is to be a power force and take centre stage in Israeli politics

The tide of opinion is now turning, as I have already predicted some time ago

America, in spite of Congress, will start to remove itself from Israel and especially Netanyahu

The US will secure its plan of action to commit their support in Iran’s peaceful nuclear programme

They will increase helpful relationships with their one time enemy

Good negotiations have already taken place and a working framework is already on the table

Their strengthened ties for peace are beginning to transform the Middle East

A better understanding between the two countries is being established

It has already been stated that Netanyahu’s visit to Congress has been “destructive to the fabric” of US-Israel relationship

It will certainly distance Israel from its allies and in the end will finally benefit Iran

Netanyahu will be frozen out

The US will play lip service to him up to a point, but he has already overstepped his position some time ago

Many in Congress and Washington will be glad to see the back of him!

The outgoing Namibian President Pohamba has won the world’s most valuable individual award, the Mo Ibrahim prize for African leadership

The sum of $5m award is given each year to an elected leader who governs well, raises living standards and then finally leaves office

Hifikepunye Pohamba, who fought for his country’s independence, has served two terms as Namibian President and now steps down

Mr Pohamba was named recipient of the 2014 Ibrahim Prize for Achievement in African Leadership in a ceremony in Nairobi, Kenya

Mo Ibrahim is a British-Sudanese mobile communications entrepreneur and philanthropist, who made billions by investing in Africa

He launched the prize to encourage African leaders to leave power peacefully

The $5m prize is spread over 10 years and is followed by $200,000 a year for life

It is so good to hear of a success story for Africa

This is proof that there are good leaders, who wish to promote the lives of their people

The prize is just a good will gesture

It is the person, who has the goodness already in their heart, that does perform and govern well!

Yet another Putin assassination – is this man unstoppable?  Will no one bring him to justice?

The climate of fear brought on by Putin towards all his adversaries will not stop them going forwards

It will not stop them trying to bring about justice and economic stability for all

To make a place where ideologies can be voiced without the fear of constant reprisals

None has the right to quash another group of people, who wish freedom from oppression and fear

Putin will see the backlash of his actions, not only from his own countrymen, but within his own protective guard

The world is coming to despise Putin as they did Hitler, both are power crazy at whatever costs

Both will suffer death in a gruesome way, where no mercy is shown as no mercies to his victims were shown

The rule of law will be exercised

Both man’s and God’s for these extortionate acts of violence, which has Putin’s signature on it and no one else’s

The world and the Russian people are not blind to Putin’s lies

He has not been believed for years, it is only fear that holds people back

When that fear dissipates and changes to anger & when the people have nothing to lose, the next uprising will occur & devastate his regime

It is only a question of time

Mr Boris Nemtsov will be hailed as a martyr of the cause and Putin will be damned as the butcher of Russia

The eyes of Nemtsov will be constantly bearing down on Putin’s soul until his dying day
