I was asked the other day why I haven’t written in the letters to the editor in the Citizen for a long time.

I am blocked.

Not sure what those are. I’m not very politically correct, which made me interesting, but those days of speaking up are under tight control, so I have been cancelled.

Good thing I don’t use social media.
