Replying to @G15London
@G15London The Cladding Scandal yet again shows that leaseholders are used as cash cows/pawns for freeholders (including housing associations) to pay for industry failure. Leasehold is feudal and belongs in the past. paulbell.org/single-post/lea… #EndOurCladdingScandal @EOCS_Official

This @nytimes ed. on #Greece & #Turkey is entirely misleading. Every #EastMed player apparently has an equally valid, but subjective viewpoint. No context, history or understanding of political motives. The nyt is hopelessly far from its mission to teach. nytimes.com/2020/08/30/opini…

Why is it, @gmiller, that educated pple miss the point that walking down the stairs and jumping from a 100 floor are in a DIFFERENT RISK/COMPLEXITY CLASS?

Note that my problem with Chinese printers was resolved amicably (they accepted) but I am SHOCKED that no other author had the guts to stand up to the weirdness Chinese censorship of a US book by a US author. theguardian.com/books/2016/d…
