What March 2022 Means To Me

March 2022 was an ongoing civil onslaught in Ukraine. Thousands of Russian missiles were fired at innocent people in their safe havens. Hospitals were hit, along with schools, homes and care homes. I was upset by seeing a place filled with blameless infants being hit by powerful missiles, the poor little ones don't even know what war is. They were so innocent but they were caught in the thick of it all. 

Over the last 2 years , there has been a slump in sea crossings between Britain and France. The 'P & O' ferry company stopped making a profit, I believe they were making a loss.  The P & O boss reacted by spontaneously laying off 800 staff without notice and the remaining staff were kept on minimum wage. It was seen by the British community as unfair and unlawful. 
At the start of the last third of the month, the clocks in Britain went forward one hour, the days were getting longer than the nights. Then towards the end of the month I saw a video of Will Smith hitting Chris Rock in the face because he told a hair joke about his wife. I was disappointed by what he did but I was even more disappointed by the reaction of the other celebrities. He was given an award minutes after the incident and they were cheering and applauding him, some of them were even defending his actions, I thought to myself that they were idiots. I didn't understand how you could cheer for someone that had just assulted another person because of a mild hair joke. It was Chris' job to tell roasting jokes, he was just doing his job. 

The main theme of the month for me was inflation. The price of everything went up very high during March, more than I had seen in my life. This was partly because of the sanctions being placed on Russia and partly because of the Pandemic I think. Supply chains around the world were disrupted. 

Happy April ? Let's see.
