Basically, a tedious anti-British Blog by somebody who it seems lives and works there - having apparently done very nicely out of it, too - but clearly, a man who has nothing but contempt for the place. What does that say about such an individual?
Welcome to Mr, wrist-slashing negativity's Blog.

The country, which has a population of 13 million, has already taken in more than 900 African asylum seekers from Libya since 2019 - under a deal with the UN refugee agency (UNHCR) and the African Union (AU).
They have been housed at Gashora, about 60km (40 miles) from Kigali. The UNHCR says it is not a refugee camp, but an Emergency Transit Mechanism - and more than half of them have already been relocated to Sweden, Canada, Norway, France and Belgium.
The UN site, which has permanent structures, aims to teach those who suffered appalling conditions in Libyan camps, the skills to help them in their new life. The camp has a driving school and offers language classes, amongst other things.
But when Denmark announced last year that it was planning a similar deal to the one the UK has just launched, the AU hit out.
"Such attempts to stem out migration from Africa to Europe is xenophobic and completely unacceptable," it said last August.
Africa already shouldered 85% of the world's refugees "often in protracted situations, whereas only 15% are hosted by developed countries", it said.
Boris Johnson accused lawyers of "abetting the work of criminal gangs" as he defended the plan.
