Thank you for reading my blog. I feel that I should start by, in the very first post, explaining the background to my starting this blog, and what my aims are with it.
In the last few months, a number of things have happened in the global political landscape which have surprised and shocked many. Although most commentators did not expect the result of the Brexit referendum, or the election of Donald Trump, for example, these events can be explained, when giving it some thought, by analysing the root causes behind them. During this period, I have read a lot of things that have angered and frustrated me. There is a lot of disinformation being spread both by mainstream media and, even worse, by many unofficial online resources. I am finding the depth and quality of analysis disappointing at best, and quite often infuriating.
I have therefore decided to offer my view here, for anyone that may be interested in reading it. It will be opinionated, as I do have opinions that I do hold strongly. But it will be respectful of facts and real information, and in the main will seek to unravel false arguments, common fallacies and widespread dellusions. It will also be positive, as I think humanity is standing at a very exciting moment in history. At a moment when, with the unparalleled development in technology we are experiencing, we have the capacity to take a significant evolutionary step. But this moment is also dangerous. The World is changing very fast, and how we react to that change will define what our future World looks like. If we fail to see the possibilities, we are likely to go backwards, and truth, freedom and many other positive human values will suffer at the hands of fear, intolerance and hatred. I will therefore try to contribute, very modestly, to steer towards a positive outcome at this critical time, by sharing positive views and important information which may inform very important political, economical and social decisions.
My blog will most likely have a UK and EU bias, as I am a Spanish citizen living in the UK, and I run companies based in Spain, UK and Germany, which give me a front row seat to the effects and consequences of the decisions we are taking.
I will aim to blog once per week, since I don't have the time to do so more often. I will blog mainly on politics and economics, but will change subject depending on what I feel most needs addressing at that particular time.
I of course would very much welcome any feedback and look forward to hear from readers, if at any point I have any. Conversation develops and improves arguments, and therefore anyone reading this has a huge contribution to make. I will also be very interested to write, and research, on any subject that readers want to know more about, so feel free to make any requests.
