The first point is that I'm grateful for your choice to avoid putting Quiet Riot behind a paywall. Being retired, I already feel the burden of all micropayments I've signed up to. They simply cannot be allowed to become even more numerous.

And besides, I am actually trying to stop following English politics so excessively closely. 😉 I must also add that I find Naomi Smith's scripted speech refreshing. Maybe it was a 'rant'. But if so, what's wrong with a lecture? It's strange with languages. The actual meaning of words often morphs.
