    It must have been a very special day back in 1945.

    I live with my Dad (92) and my Mother in law (96) and they have been telling us about VE Day.

    Let's hope we have another VE Day soon - Virus Eradication Day.
    In a world of negative media,deaths and suffering I’ll take a bit of positive in what ever form it arrives in, I know this much it made a lot of the older generation happy singing along to Vera ( we’ll meet again - rang out in our back garden anyway. ).
    It’s sometimes easy to forget just what happend and also what an amazing country we are.

    I saw footage emerging out of Finsbury Park yesterday.

    I saw footage of our police tasering a black guy in front of his daughter on a garage forecourt the day before.

    Our country does not look very "amazing" to me.

    Would it have been OK had it been a white guy ? Just asking like ?
