In this episode, I share personal reflections on my recent silence and plans for future content creation. I discuss the importance of taking time for oneself, the development of a national archive project for survivors of grooming gangs, and my thoughts on the current political landscape in the UK, including new political parties and their potential impact. I emphasize the need for collective efforts to address societal issues and express hope for a spiritual awakening alongside political change.

This is a reading of the short essay "Symmetry and Repetition" written by Sir Lewis Namier. "Symmetry and Repetition" explores the tendency of people to avoid thinking by relying on established patterns and structures, particularly in political and historical contexts. He argues that this inclination towards symmetry and repetition, while seemingly efficient, can mask deeper, more complex realities and hinder genuine understanding. Sir Lewis Bernstein Namier was a British historian of Polish-Jewish background. His best-known works were The Structure of Politics at the Accession of George III (1929), England in the Age of the American Revolution (1930) and the History of Parliament series (begun 1940) he edited later in his life with John Brooke.

In this episode #94 of "Reflections & Reactions", I talk with Henry Bolton (OBE) about his life and the social and political landscape of Britain. While talking about his life we take many detours into the world of policing, military, and diplomacy. I hope you all like this fascinating conversation.

This is the last episode of "Thoughts from Soviet Britain" - and in this episode as a way of answer the question posed by the Prevent UK program on terrorism, I lay it all bare and give a reality check.

Watch my short Talk TV appearance hosted by my friend Alex Phillips where we discuss the Burqa debate.

In this episode, #93, of 'Reflections & Reactions", I talk with Dr Mario Trabucco della Torretta about the history of Elgin Marbles and Parthenon, about the controversies surrounding Lord Elgin, and whether these sculptures should be returned to Greece or not.

In this episode, I briefly explore the story behind the Elgin Marbles or Parthenon Sculptures that were taken from Athens and transported to London in the British Museum.

In this episode of "Thoughts from Soviet Britain", which is likely to be the second last episode of this series, I talk about how the whole nations seems to be at a knife's edge and ready to explode. I talk about it with the context of what happened at Liverpool FC Parade rally on 26th of May 2025, and its immediate reaction on social media. I also talk about the release of Tommy Robinson from prison and how we can look at gaining momentum towards building something positive.
