Mr Cameron is in no position to lecture the Chinese on democracy

The government of Europe is scarcely more accountable than that of China, says Christopher Booker 

Quite a few eyebrows will have been raised last week at the sight of our Prime Minister in China extolling the virtues of democracy. If democracy means anything, it is a system which makes a government accountable to its people and gives them the chance to replace it with another one. That certainly doesn't apply to the one-party state in China.

Philosophy of Life

if someone just lives for blue skies

on a rainy day

he should

go to an oculist

someone who doesn’t know what is in store for him

and what isn’t

really stirs up

a lot of dust

if someone looks up into the air

where there is nothing

he might

think of something

-Hans Peter Keller.
