Ge : come out from behind your sofa and say what’s on your mind – coward
You’re not funny
Fancy that – I was an Electronic Engineer in Flight Control Systems – an interface for my company back in the UK
My dear Linda,
I’m sensing that your mind is still raw from all the political events that have happened over the last few weeks and the last thing I want to do is cause emotional damage.
I’ll go quietly into the night and wish you well.
P.S.
Blair fucked up Iraq
That’s his legacy.
And we’ve been fucking up the Middle East for a century and more.
Start your movement Drac – let’s get some civic sense going eh?
Aha !!! I see light at the end of the tunnel. You have some admiration for the Queen. God bless you my dear. I wouldn’t be so bold as to say that makes you a Royalist but I think we do agree she has been a beacon of inspiration in the decades she has been on the throne, in her palaces, and estates. Of course, it is Her Majesty’s Government isn’t it. We (well, I for one) elect the Government and her weekly sitreps makes sure the PM doesn’t stray from the straight and narrow otherwise she would have them over her knee! We can’t elect the Monarch because that is a royal blood/succession thing but we can elect the people we want to do the hand’s on stuff. It’s not perfect but as you say, it’s the best we have. Of course, being an academic, you’ll remember we had a bit of a Civil War to sort all that out – you know, Parliament – treating people as equals – giving them the vote – and then of course the Suffragettes who died fighting to get women the vote. Most of it, especially human rights stems from the Magna Carta. It’s in my local cathedral. Fascinating read. You’ll know that as well of course. And I won’t bore you with how my Dad fought in the war, a war that came so close to you speaking German.
So, lets consider ourselves lucky that we were born in a reasonably decent society where we are free to express an opinion and not one such as North Korea or god forbid, Saudi Arabia where your female rights would be a bit restricted.
Hugs
Oh I do beg your pardon. You did provide a response to the source question. Let’s see….witness statements, academic papers……hmmm… and then there’s the etc and the problems……
Gulp,
Drac…..do you believe anything that anyone tells you ?
Hmmm….there’s food for thought. Your suggestion that people don’t know who or what they’re voting for is a rather sweeping generalism and I would have thought, a tad insulting to the person in the street. The closest to home examples I know of who proclaim themselves as Civic Nationalists are the SNP, Plaid Cymru and Mebyon Kernow ( good ol’ Cornwall!). Of course, they have to endure some sort of democratic process to elect their leaders to implement policy etc etc. I hope you find that a necessary evil unless you think that should happen through some sort of organic, thought sharing system that doesn’t involve leadership at all?
Nah…i put my hands up. You’re gonna have to help me out on that one?
And as to your trusted news and information sources? Would you like to take a punt at those please?
linda, get some sleep. I’d like your considerations when you’re fresh and properly rested. I always get grumpy when i’m tired so don’t get emotional over your thoughts. If you’re working hard for your family then that’s more important than a lively debate with a Londoner.
Take care my sweet x
Take your time linda, but please listen to Gabriel before your gird your loins. I’ve listened to enough of the giuliani/powell hearing ‘evidence’ over the last few weeks. I’m sure you can spare 20 minutes to balance the books, if you have the humanity to.
