As they explained, it helps to soften their hands. Having no comparison experience (flight attendants are not fond of passengers wanting to test the softness [...]

By Denis Campbell
2-3 times each year the UKProgressive Sports desk dusts off the cobwebs and either celebrates or laments the editor’s 40+-year love affair with the heartbreak kids of summer, a.k.a. being a lifelong Boston Red Sox baseball fan. 2004 and 2007 brought levels of unprecedented joy as the 80+ year curse was lifted with [...]

 Zero hour. The gradual re-branding of The Vadimus Post to UK Progressive the last few months will happen pretty much overnight tonight. The technical name for it is a ‘domain switch’ and what it means is overnight we will simply change, (for the purposes of Google, Yahoo and MSN searches and their counting system), so [...]

About The UKProgressive

UK Progressive began during the 2008 US Presidential Campaign. It replaced two blogs: "Outside the Boundaries" (dedicated to US/UK Politics and Business) and "Fire the Guru!" an expose of charlatans in the Mind Body Spirit business. It was briefly known as The Vadimus Post from the Latin 'Quo Vadimus' or 'Where Are We Headed?'

We publish from a 19th century hilltop farmhouse in Monknash on the South Wales Glamorgan Heritage Coast. US-journalist Denis Campbell, based in The Netherlands and UK for 12-years is the publisher/editor. You can follow his live news feed on Facebook.com (Denis Campbell) and Twitter @UKProgressive.

UK Progressive is a free service. I cringe every time I hear a pbs, truthout or npr never-ending appeal for money. They make much more than we do. We're not your mother, we'll skip the guilt trip.
