A wishlist for 2024

Greenwich Park, January 1, 2024 / Christian Radnedge

For the wind and rain to calm and the sun to shine bright.

For my body fat percentage to decrease while my strength improves.

For Liam and Noel Gallagher to resolve their differences and reform Oasis.

For Tottenham Hotspur to win the FA Cup.

For England to win the European Championship.

For my partner to find the happiness she so richly deserves.

For the Conservatives to be thrown out of power in a general election to end their reign of punishing policies, corruption and cruel governance.

For the homeless to find homes and asylum seekers to be treated as human beings.

For Russia to end their senseless war in Ukraine.

For the United States to reject the return of Donald Trump and pursue an open and democratic future.

For peace in Gaza and Israel.

For any of these things to come true despite the overwhelming odds against – as a world without hope is a dark place to live.
