Free local author talk at Dulwich Library: tuesday 2pm


Recommended Posts

Hi folks - I?m doing a talk tomorrow about my latest book, a biography of Henry VI. Son of Henry v (of Battle of Agincourt fame), he came to the throne as a baby and during his reign lost the Hundred Years War AND the Wars of the Roses before being murdered in the Tower of London. A pretty eventful period of History all round - and that?s before we start exploring the mental health of this allegedly ?mad king?...


Talk lasts an hour, starts 2pm, at Dulwich Library (opposite the Plough). There?ll be a chance to buy signed copies of the book afterwards for a reduced price (cash only).


Hope to see you there!


Lauren

    • He seemed to me to be fully immersed in the Jeremy Corbyn ethos of the Labour Party. I dint think that (and self describing as a Marxist) would have helped much when Labour was changed under Starmer. There was a purge of people as far left as him that he was lucky to survive once in my opinion.   Stuff like this heavy endorsement of Momentum and Corbyn. It doesn't wash with a party that is in actual government.   https://labourlist.org/2020/04/forward-momentum-weve-launched-to-change-it-from-the-bottom-up/
    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls. 
    • There used to be a better baker than Gail's on the same site immediately before Gail's pulled their financial muscle.
