“An unbelieved truth can hurt a man much more than a lie. It takes great courage to back truth unacceptable to our times. There's a punishment for it, and it's usually crucifixion.”
― John Steinbeck, East of Eden
Englishman, mid 50's, lived in southern Africa for years, these days in beautiful Australia.
Former professional infantry soldier. published writer, have worked at sea. Agnostic (cultural Christian) right of centre politically, generally reactionary and nationalist; these days dissident right. I love the natural world. Support wildlife conservation and animal welfare, like all dogs and a fair number of humans. I support ending all mass immigration into Great Britain, Australia and other Western nations
Dislikes: The regressive left, the unreformed Dark Ages ideology that is Islam (it is not a race and it is not just a religion) feminists and all things politically correct (and strongly associated attempts to destroy Western men and masculinity) adult babies who get 'triggered' by life, the idiotic and wasteful 'war on drugs', 99% of political types across all parties (generally speaking they lie for a living). censorship.
Likes: Free speech, the old Commonwealth (ie, Britain, Australia, Canada and New Zealand and the Western democracy supporters of South Africa) the Anglosphere (ie, the English speaking world, including the USA) Brexit and British independence from the anti-democratic EU, Western democracy, Western civilisation, the Royal Navy (my son is serving in the Senior Service) strong defence forces that act as a deterrent to aggression and can win if you have to fight. Science, history, books, travel (been to almost 50 nations, lived on three continents) wild places, the ocean, reasonably cute women in short skirts and heels, Tradition (in the shape of things like Trooping the Colour, ANZAC Day parades and Naval Sunset ceremonies, it reminds us who we are, and what our, generally, proud history is) cricket, rugby union, sailing, humour.
Places I most love in the World, aside from Great Britain, Australia and South Africa (especially what is now KwaZulu-Natal) are the British Virgin Islands in the Caribbean and the Seychelles in the Indian Ocean. Check out my Youtube channel '99IronDuke'.
A fine hello to you and welcome to my channel. I run a small antique business in the UK and restore most of my goods myself, by hand. I love studying history and will likely post a few bits here and there. I may not be on all too often, however if any questions are to be had by you I should be more than happy to answer when I get a chance.
