| Introduction | 55 year old, Piscean with Working Class antecedents and riddled with strange beliefs, such as; inheriting is silly and it is even sillier that I am not going to inherit anything. Socialist with not very much to his name but who would like to share it anyway and I don't see why anyone should profit from another person's labour even if in my case they probably don't. Still, there are a lot of poor bastards out there being used and abused and it is just not on. Caught between my conscience and "la dolce vita" but something tells me that ignorance is not only not bliss, but it is also simply ignorance and in the global village we cannot look the other way. Based in Munich, from Glasgow and have lived and worked in Scotland, England,Germany, Bulgaria, the Lebanon,Bahrain, Oman, Bangladesh, China and Ethiopia. B.A Hons in History from the then "New University of Ulster" in 1984, M.A. in International History in 1988 from the London School of Economics. |
