Mike

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 journalist and broadcaster since provided articles and columns for numerous magazines and international news media. In 2011 he was awarded Writer of the Year by the publishers of Euro Weekly News, Europe's highest-circulation newspaper of its kind. He has authored, edited and ghosted over 70 book titles.

Who the Hell do Profiteering Politicians think they are to lead us to war with Russia

MICHAEL WALSH OP-ED: Let us be quite clear about it; neither Russia nor China poses a threat to the Managed Democracies of the West. War is simply not in their interests. In fact, war to either of these nations would be as disastrous to them as it would be to the incinerated millions in the so-called democracies. Russia shares borders with 14 other countries, more than any other country. Russia gets on fine with its neighbours.

To Europe Renaissance Fans from Australia

OUR CORRESPONDENT IN MELBOURNE: Yes, well done those men and women who got out and protested. The new pandemic management bill that is in the Victorian parliament at the moment proves the point that you made so well on our state Premier Minister I heard on your radio show today. We are living in a managed democracy; otherwise known as a dictatorship.
