30 years ago South Africa peacefully voted away the wicked and stupid system of apartheid and seemed to be on the way to a fine, prosperous future. Reporting on it was the happiest event of my professional life. But President Jacob Zuma’s corruption did irreparable damage to it.

Sir Max is right from start to finish (including NATO's too casual enlargement years ago). I don't know how many more people have got to keep hammering these hard truths before someone- anyone - in No.10 gets it. General Election isn't the only priority. thetimes.co.uk/article/af2d0c…

11 April 1961. The trial began in Israel of leading Gestapo-SS official Adolf Eichmann. He was a key figure in organising the transportation of Jews and other Nazi victims to the death camps during the Holocaust. He epitomised what Hannah Arendt called the “banality of evil”.
Great opportunity.
