Vincent McGovern, an Irishman, is surely the most respected campaigner in the UK for the right of fathers and children to have access to each other following family breakdowns. His website is here.
In 2021 his excellent book The War on Dads & Children was published (Paperback edition £16.26, Kindle edition only £4.99). I’m preparing for an important interview in which the issue of family courts will be discussed, so I called Vincent for an update. We had a long chat during which he informed me the situation has become worse for fathers and children in recent years, as he detailed in a new chapter in his book – here.

I can’t imagine a 49-year-old man threatening kids with a knife would ever be described as “silly”.

Helena Morrissey’s attacks on the CBI and her support for the British Chambers of Commerce
Followers of this site will recall Helena Morrissey’s recent attacks on the CBI following its shameful firing of Tony Danker, its director general. Her calls included encouraging companies to cancel their CBI memberships and join the British Chambers of Commerce (BCC), a ridiculous call. A piece in yesterday’s Guardian on the BCC is here. The BCC has a female director general, Shevaun Haviland. What are the chances?
Almost seven months have elapsed since our allied organisation Campaign for Merit in Business publicly challenged four leading proponents of ‘more women on boards’, including Helena Morrissey – here. Predictably, we’ve had responses from none of them. The initiative to increase gender diversity on boards was a scam from the outset, and the CBI was among the keenest proponents, to their eternal shame. They are now reaping what they sowed.

Rowland Adelagun (ManWomanMyth) – 50 Years of Being a Bloody Legend
Our YouTube channel includes what we believe to be the world’s largest collection of videos (130) by the legendary British vlogger Rowland Adelagun (ManWomanMyth), in a dedicated playlist. He recently turned 50, and – quite unprompted – earlier today posted a video (36 seconds) prompted by my birthday card. His own YouTube channel is here.
Andy and I have lunch with Row regularly, we’re looking forward to the next lunch in five days’ time, because it’s always a pleasure to lunch with a legend!
