Public money pays for infrastructure which ramps up property (land) values. So our money makes land owers rich by doing “nothing” – economic parasites. Crossrail did claw back some of the increased value to property that would rise in value around their stations. Full Land Value Tax would fund infrastructure easily, giving us the finest in the world.

About This Blog

What this blog will eventually be about I do not know.

But it will be about how I’m coping with the loss of my wife and son to cancer in recent years and how I manage with being a coeliac and recovering from a stroke. It will be about travel, sport, engineering, food, art, computers, large projects and London, that are some of the passions that fill my life.

And hopefully, it will get rid of the lonely times, from which I still suffer.
