Well I got back to Jakarta late last night…

—-
… but it’s taken me all day to regain control of my laptop from Windows, who seized it for installation of ‘updates!’ They offered no option to postpone their installation, so I was unable to email my numerous friends in The Old Country who made my visit fun.
First time in the UK for quite a few years, and much to comment on ( incidentally, no blog comments recently from anyone, so if I don’t publish yours, please resend – Windows maybe erased them whilst making free with my technology!)
Meantime, no rush to blog about all my experiences in modern Britain, which will include a gripping comparison of Manchester and Abu Dhabi Airports…

…except for the hilarious poster I saw when strolling nostalgically around my alma mater. It comprised an imaginary (?) conversation, presumably between two normal British blokes, roughly along the lines of –
‘Why would she be offended when I said she had the ‘Rear of the Year?’
ooooooooooooooooo

This nice pic was NOT on the ‘diversity’ poster.

Yeah, I’d have thought she’d take it as a compliment.’

Indeed, any normal girl would!
But the poster was a warning from some nut-jobs in the campus ‘diversity’ shrill-squad, whining about men being ‘disrespectful’ to women! I laughed aloud at the po-faced ( and presumably skinny-assed) prigs who felt so slighted. Then I continued my walk and came upon the most recent update of the student union discipline code, which has now included ‘leering’ as a possible disrespectful disciplinary offence.

As my former Scots colleague might have put it, were these people born, or did their maw knit them?
However, it turns out there is an actual event – no, not a ‘National Leering Day’ – but a Rear of the Year contest!

The ‘Rear of the Year’ is a light-hearted award presented annually to British celebrities with prize-winning rear assets. It was created by publicity consultant Tony Edwards and is organised by Rear of the Year Limited. http://www.rearoftheyearcompetition.com/
So belated congrats to Jennifer, above – uptights please note, there are awards for both female and male bums, but you won’t get any of the latter featured on THIS blog!

But a big question mark over how students supposedly engaged in serious studies at a respectable UK university have time to get their knickers in a twist over a neat chat-up line.

It breaks my heart to see how the Tory Party goes about destroying the RAF with diversity racism.

I found this hard to believe but went and double_checked. it’s worse even than what you say.
“The defence sources accused Air Chief Marshal Sir Mike Wigston, the head of the RAF, of appearing willing to compromise UK security at a time of growing threats from Russia and China in pursuit of albeit important goals such as improving diversity and inclusion.”

Who’s the Tory Minister of Defence?
Why don’t the Tory Government dismiss Wigton?
