“PHONETICALLY SPEAKING” To reflect the fast pace of world news, my blog is probably best served as a stream-of-consciousness text. Fast and unadulterated. With this approach, and on first encounter, text might not seem to scan. This is because I am dyslexic. Instead of keeping the proof-readers busy, I would rather let my blog updates of my visual work stand as a record of my experience of dyslexia, which I am keen that you now get to enjoy too. Unlike some news outlets, I hereby excuse myself the need for a ‘corrections’ section! The excitement of a new language is something I’m quite familiar with, and it is with this ‘joie de vivre’ that I am delighted to guide you through my thought and work processes, more phonetically (than fanatically) speaking.

But don’t worry the incompetence isn’t only in the House of Commons over France MP Yves Albarello broadcast via RMC radio,us to the Kouachi brothers, Saïd and Chérif, the Graphic designer Lilian Lepère, is hiding underneath the sink.
Not so bad but equally ridiculous Alaskan police officer tasered a child after he asked the officer to do so, however there is some light and hope, Leroy Smith, of the South Carolina Department of Public Safety happened to be a black police officer on duty during a Ku Klux Klan (KKK) Confederate flag rally. KKK members started to collapse from heat stroke. Without a second thought he was assisting them to safety.
Back in London phone hacking on the public with fake telephone masks intercepting calls, celebrating 65 years of peace across Europe if you ignore the list of countries which the Europeans have been involved in, I wouldn’t recommend playing a drinking game, even after a quick wiki search.
The champagne socialists at the BBC cannot help themselves making a hunger games style reality TV show for the homeless at the same time criticising Katie Hopkins when she takes part in the lowest form of journalism she chooses to play the game immigration with historic references to undesirables in the Second World War.
And we must congratulate the progressives in not liberating marriage for all but in fact bringing everyone into the opportunity of an expensive divorce.
Retired US General Wesley Clark suggested that the radicalised youth of American, British, French and German nations should be segregated in the way Nazi sympathisers were held in camps during World War II in the USA.
