Deeply saddened by the damage caused by the Note Dame fire, champion of Arab artists, Claude Lemand, started contacting artist friends, to see if they would be willing to contribute commemorative works of art.

When there’s no new news on Notre Dame there’s always Boris Johnson
Though perhaps not for much longer, Boris Johnson might lose the UK Prime Minister position next week becoming the shortest Prime Minister ever to hold office.
Or he might survive to the time being, who knows? Certainly not Boris.
Did The Simpsons predict Thunberg glaring at Trump?
Well, no, The Simpsons screen shot is a fake and The Simpsons did not predict the fire at Notre Dame either. Still The Simpsons DID predict Trump as President, years ago when things were more normal.

By a happy coincidence, I’ve just completed my book as a play and submitted it to a competition today too. It has nothing to do with Notre Dame, sorry.

So the prorogation of the UK parliament by Boris Johnson was ‘unlawful’
Justice Hale says prorogation is not a proceeding in parliament. Although it takes place in parliament, it is not their decision. It is something that has been imposed on them from outside.
The PM’s advice to Her Majesty was “unlawful, void and of no effect”.
That means the order in council was also “unlawful, void and of no effect”.
Should Boris Johnson be led away in handcuffs now? Or perhaps he just work in Notre Dame as a service to the community.
If you want to go to Notre Dame it won’t be by Thomas Cook any more
The travel company Thomas Cook has collapsed today, so if you’re not already in Paris you’ll have to find another way to visit Notre Dame . Not that you would likely have booked with that company in the first place. It has been in a mess and badly run for years. Mind you, the big bosses still got a lot of money even if they didn’t know how to run a company well.
We’ve mentioned the rooster before
It’s a copper rooster and was rescued from the Notre Dame fire where it used to sit atop the now destroyed spire. And now it has gone on exhibition at the “Revoir Notre-Dame de Paris” as part of European Heritage Days 2019, at the French Cultu.

Greta Thunberg and school students led climate crisis protest
Young activists in San Francisco, California
I’ve said before that if the World isn’t saved then the restoration of Notre Dame is redundant.
Yesterday, millions of people led by Greta Thunberg tried to raise public awareness of the climate change and its upcoming catastrophe. But perhaps it’s already too late.
