In Iran, the people, confronted by corrupt politicians take to the streets.In Britain, the people, confronted by corrupt politicians vote for them! (in the Euro elections 56% of the British public who voted did so for LibLabCon).
I think we need a bit of the Iranian spirit over here!
I watched Slumdog Millionaire on DVD last night. It was the second time I'd watched it, the first time being at the cinema a couple of months ago.My main beef with the film though is the simple fact that it was marketed as 'The Feelgood Film of the Year'!
What?! Feelgood film!?
When I watched it at the cinema there were parents and teenage daughters there all pop corned up and obviously ready for a 'romcom'. You should have seen their faces after just a few minutes of the film.
Entertaining it was, feelgood it wasn't.
Whoever marketed the film and used that slogan should be electrocuted, or blinded, if you get my drift...
'Knife crime is now embedded in heart of Britain', here.I'm sorry but does no-one see the elephant in the room?
Yes The BNP leader was attacked today by Nazis.Yes I'm afraid if you physically attack a political opponent and try to deny that opponent freedom of speech and ride roughshod over the democratic process then you are pretty much in my book a Nazi.
A lot has been said and written about The BNP today and one old chestnut that keeps cropping up is the argument about the England football team that I've dealt with previously here.Whatever you think of The BNP, I think fairs fair and rights right and this England football team argument is in my opinion just plain silly.
It's just been announced that the fiddling MP's are likely NOT to be charged.Scandalous but not surprising I'm afraid.
The only thing that people can do about it is to vote them out but judging by how many morons (only my opinion of course) voted for the mainstream parties last night that seems unlikely.
So, they steal our money, provoke our outrage and hold us in contempt but we (not me) still vote for them.
I'm baffled.
