The Gordon riots are new to me and the account of them being used as a dry run for the French Revolution is striking. Overall, listening to this account of British history leaves a chilling impression of flawed characters of pure evil.

Yep. Marching on Westminster is a sucker's play, as is blowing up Parliament (tomorrow?) All the control is in The City. Westminster is a school play.

Yes. Guy Fawkes night coincides with the US election tomorrow. Hopefully it’s not an omen. Sir Guy was stooge used to start a Roman catholic pogrom. It was so successful that Catholics were quickly reduced to around 1% of the population by 1700. The Protestant v Catholic dialectic has been a very useful tool for the puppeteers which has for now run its course . Although a Catholic cannot be the monarch to this day.
