Introducing Jersey: March 2014
http://introducingjersey.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 26 March 2014. Bob Key, Church of England Dean of Jersey (CI). I have just heard the Dean being interviewed on BBC Radio Jersey and a more sickening piece of effrontery you could not imagine. He was oozing complacency and triumphalism which must surely have made every one listening, bar his own claque in the Jersey civil and church power structure, throw up. The man is a smoothie weirdo. Jesus would have a fit. I already have. I have previously posted. You can listen to the Dean here. At the e...

Introducing Jersey: October 2012
http://introducingjersey.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, 25 October 2012. I know about France. And I understand La Francophonie. But this one has me beat. The mission of the French Institute (Alliance Française) is to spread the French language and culture (Langue et Civilisation Française). That I know too. So, when I go to the Institute's restaurant (La Cocotte) I generally expect to see French dishes, and when I see a revolving sequence of regional dishes (Plat Régional) I certainly expect these to be French. Time for Les Crapauds. Jersey's Dean- ...

Introducing Jersey: November 2013
http://introducingjersey.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 27 November 2013. What is the image above? That will become clear at the end of this post. We'll start by setting the scene on the island of Jersey, one of the Channel Islands off the coast of France. Despite its proximity to the French coast it is British, a British Crown Dependency. It is sort of independent and originally answered directly to the British Monarch who was responsible for its good governance. The monarch has since delegated this function to her UK Justice Minister. It appears ...

Introducing Jersey: May 2015
http://introducingjersey.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, 10 May 2015. Click any image for a larger version. So the people of Jersey, the island with which I am most familiar, had much to celebrate on this day in each year following the end of WWII. This year was special as the 70th anniversary and it was seen as marking perhaps the end of those celebrations in which aging survivors of the occupation could take part in any numbers. So I tweeted my friends in Jersey a happy Liberation Day and I meant it. What follows refers to Jersey alone. The montage a...

Introducing Jersey: Carry on Jersey
http://introducingjersey.blogspot.com/2014/03/carry-on-jersey.html
Tuesday, 4 March 2014. New currency unit THE PRAWN, after Lenny Harper. Click on any image for a larger version. A lot of carry on has been going on in Jersey since my last post. At the end of November 2013. I'm not sure whether the island has lurched towards independence, but certainly there are things going on that should not be acceptable in any civilised society. I'll try and fill in developments below under a few relevant headings. One of the posts requested to be taken down. Of Erlan Verhooten, and...

Introducing Jersey: June 2011
http://introducingjersey.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Friday, 24 June 2011. La Reine de la Manche. The Queen of the Channel", Jersey. Channel Islands, occupies a unique space. It is French but not French; it is British but not part of the UK; it is not in the EU but sort of of it; it is a tax haven sheltering under the relative respectability of a British Crown Dependency just off the coast of France. The big tourist festival, akin to the St. Patrick's day parade for the Irish, was the "Battle of Flowers" where magnificent floats, completely covered in ...

Introducing Jersey: Hairline Cracks

Sunday, 26 April 2015. Frances Oldham, Chair of child sex abuse Inquiry,. And the Victoria College £10 note. Click any image for a larger version. For convenience I had copied my Jersey posts to a separate blog " Introducing Jersey. And will do the same with this one. That blog also lists the blogs I follow to keep up with current developments in Jersey. Probably the most significant development in the last year has been the work of the inquiry. However, there are serious reservations in some quarters ab...
