7 July 2020

Yesterday was reasonably sunny in the afternoon and I actually managed to cut the back lawn and do some gardening. Today its rained all day :(

At least I have a good book to read - The Divide by Jason Hickel is a brilliant summary of the causes of global poverty - in short, Western imperialism. Colonisation which damaged the economies of Africa, India and China and shortened to life expectancies of millions has been replaced by neoliberal economic imperialism where western corporations continue to loot the global south and leave these countries in debt bondage. It's appalling and needs to be ended. Recommended!
