March 2

War

The impact around the world of the Ukraine war is immense, with the prospect of dire consequences  that will shape the future for decades.  More serious than the cold war era.

Suddenly attention has moved away from our other war, the pandemic.

Ukraine is dominating the media with the BBC’s extended news bulletins presenting harrowing accounts and pictures.

Gone, and almost forgotten are the daily reports of the latest covid infection and death statistics of the insidious virus - 19 million cases and 162,000 deaths in Britain.

We are now obsessed with new daily death lists, of civilians killed in their homes in a senseless war.

It is indeed a strange world.
