Liverpool born poet and writer Michael Walsh traces his Liverpool roots back to 1865. This was the year his Irish great-grandmother arrived in the Second City of Empire. His parents were born at the turn of what was to become the most tumultuous century in history. Michael's father, Patrick, fought in three major conflicts before reaching his fortieth birthday. His mother, Kathleen, was a former nun turned gun-running renegade.
On leaving school at 15 years of age, Michael spent 12 weeks at the Merchant Navy School for Sailors in Sharpness, Gloucestershire. During his years at sea, he was to visit and work in over 60 countries.

The decision of the US Supreme Court that abortion is not a constitutional right has infuriated supporters of the Democratic Party, and major US companies have said they will pay their employees for abortions, Fox News reports. According to broadcaster Tucker Carlson, the reason is that a childless workforce is easier and cheaper to exploit, but many Americans do not understand this and mindlessly repeat the propaganda of ‘global capitalism’.
So what is it? Why does the thought of having children cause such anger in these people? Where does this attitude come from? It turns out that from the same place where the Democratic Party now adopts its attitude towards everything else, directly from American corporations.
