THE LAST DITCH

An Englishman's Castle: Cancer in the wild.

I do admire the way the Englishman thinks, not to mention the economy with which he expresses himself. I do not admire those English academics who reach distressing conclusions that one intelligent farmer plus Google can refute so quickly and so deftly.

Tom is a retired international lawyer. He was a partner in a City of London law firm and spent almost twenty years abroad serving clients from all over the world.

Returning to London on retirement in 2011, he was dismayed to discover how much liberty had been lost in the UK while he was away.

He’s a classical liberal (libertarian, if you must) who, like his illustrious namesake, considers that

“…government even in its best state is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one.”
