Re: Political Ramblings of an Idiot
i have been accused before of being disrespectful to the people who fought and died in world wars to save britain, but my point is they didnt fight to save a piece of land in between John O'Groats and Land's End, but these ideals of freedom and equality. You're probably well wide of the mark there....

Re: Political Ramblings of an Idiot
some were frankly ridiculous, for instance the BNP who had a girl born and bred in Dublin quoted as supporting them, saying she beleived that Britain should be preserved for the indigenous people of Britain. that's right, the BRITISH national party.

[quote='Prufrock']the lyrics under my messages (is it called my signature?) pretty much sum up my feelings on left wingpolitics at the moment[/quote] the next line is 'so i hung up my banner in disgust and i head for the door' but it wouldnt fit.

Dont worry you'll grow out if it. Nobody comes up with a post like that unless they are avoiding exam revision - am I right?! What course are you studying? Note the time of the post Mummy.

Burmese Days by Mr Orwell, not far into it but good so far, he has a way with words that fella A better way then old TSE I hope. Your namesake's love song is an excercise in senile dememtia. Worse still are those who try to explain it. If it needs explanation, it failed. Just my view. :wink: Intere...

Has anyone here (or in the whole world for that matter) ever read Thackeray's Henry Esmond from front to back? It was required reading in the English syllabus of 1961 - as directed and controlled by the N.S.W. Dept. of Education. I never did get beyond the first couple of chapters. Fortunately it d...
