"Stand ye calm and resolute, Like a forest close and mute, With folded arms and looks which are Weapons of unvanquished war. And if then the tyrants dare, Let them ride among you there; Slash, and stab, and maim and hew; What they like, that let them do. With folded arms and steady eyes, And little fear, and less surprise, Look upon them as they slay, Till their rage has died away: Then they will return with shame, To the place from which they came, And the blood thus shed will speak In hot blushes on their cheek: Rise, like lions after slumber In unvanquishable number! Shake your chains to earth like dew Which in sleep had fallen on you: Ye are many—they are few!" Shelley
Not sure what to make of that! Is it a call to arms to overthrow the government "rise like lions" or a pacifist saying you can kill us all and we will just take it? 😮

Sell out. Yeah, he's gone 'mainstream', liked some of his early stuff but just too populist to be cool now. Old news.

Certainly there is a subtlety to nonviolent civil disobedience, but the alternatives are either to accept tyrrany or take up arms, and I have the deepest admiration for people brave enough to take a stand without adopting violence - it's always the tyrants that get bronze statues in the high street while the martyrs get forgotten, but the justice and dignity of their protest can't be ignored.

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth a war, is much worse. When a people are used as mere human instruments for firing cannon or thrusting bayonets, in the service and for the selfish purposes of a master, such war degrades a people. A war to protect other human beings against tyrannical injustice; a war to give victory to their own ideas of right and good, and which is their own war, carried on for an honest purpose by their free choice, — is often the means of their regeneration. A man who has nothing which he is willing to fight for, nothing which he cares more about than he does about his personal safety, is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. As long as justice and injustice have not terminated their ever-renewing fight for ascendancy in the affairs of mankind, human beings must be willing, when need is, to do battle for the one against the other.” ― John Stuart Mill, Principles of Political Economy

Dead heroes may well be ideal role models for others but I would rather be alive under a dictator than be cannon fodder for a cause. Ok cowards hardly make their mark in the grand scheme of things but death eventually visits us all and I would like to get my 3 score years and 10................Actually, come to think about it I am on borrowed time so please comment quickly.

QUOTE (SirWilliam @ Jun 27 2017, 07:31 PM) Surely the whole point of any forum is either to argue your cause or disagree with the views of others. Once it degenerates into personal attacks, ( however justified ), the impetus is lost. Only a complete bigot would consider himself to hold views beyond question or be man enough to accept that the other party may just be right. In an ideal world that might be true, but I think a lot of forums and social networking sites are full of egotist with not much to share other than ignorance or bigotry and these people seek out like minded people to help support their views. If true the chances of a meaningful debate are small.

QUOTE (Andy Capp @ Jun 28 2017, 12:17 AM) There is more than one type of irony. Irony. The expression of one's meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite, typically for humorous or emphatic effect. Or, A state of affairs or an event that seems deliberately contrary to what one expects and is often wryly amusing as a result. To which 'type' were you alluding to?

To which 'type' were you alluding to? One wouldn't expect someone who complains about someone else being a certain way, is themselves a model example of that they complain of.

I believe it is because you would expect someone that complains of people who are quick to throw abuse at another when they are at a loss of things to say, not to be guilty of doing the same thing themselves. PS - I corrected a typo in my last post.

I would not know about other forums and know even less about the social media thingy that seems to rule the lives of so many. Even the President of the most powerful country, ( supposedly ), on earth seems to consider that social media is a more adept means of relaying his message than actually standing in front of an audience. What is very apparent is that the written word can not only be miss-construed but actually miss-read in order to fit the reader's criteria. Perhaps we should just revert to talking face to face?

Britain’s wealth problem – we don’t create enough of it http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-40506570As even the BBC have woken up and spotted the reason why, under its present regime, we are well and truly stuffed. In effect, what's been happening since 1979 has reached its logical conclusion. So, it may well be that those threatening to go have done the decent thing and actually done so. Meaning we still have a chance to clear up the mess once the next election is out of the way.

The global economy, cheap/subsidised fuel and fast Internet mean low wages. Low wages = low tax yields. Exasperated by more reliance on the (reducing) return.

QUOTE (je suis Charlie @ Oct 24 2017, 02:41 AM) " Hallam MP Nagar O'Mara (Labour) said he was deeply ashamed at his online history, unearthed by the Guido Fawkes website. The comments included jokes about having an orgy with members of Girls Aloud, a claim that Michelle McManus had only won Pop Idol “because she was fat”, and a suggestion it would be funny if the jazz star Jamie Cullum were “sodomised with his own piano”.
A candidate for the leadership maybe? Is there anyone Labour don't hate? How old was he at the time? 2004 wasn't it? He looks like a child now! It's Jared isn't it? And how is wanting to have sex with someone hate? Perhaps that's how it works for you.

QUOTE (Andy Capp @ Oct 24 2017, 08:48 AM) Recent scientific revelations allow me to better understand some people. So if we are to place ourselves on the moral high ground, we should feel sorry for some of the posters on this site! Especially Monster Raving Righties! 😋 And for the gibbering Libtards.

"Labour MP Jared O'Mara has quit the Commons equality committee over online homophobic comments he made before being elected to parliament.Mr O'Mara also made misogynistic remarks, joked about having an orgy with members ofGirls Aloud and posted degrading commentsabout fat people." Hate crimes, certainly for anyone who isn't a leftie libtard anyways.

Even so, I’d hate to be judged now for some of the things I did and said in my 40s, much less my 20s. It’s a bit desperate and compared to Boris Johnson he is a saint.

QUOTE (je suis Charlie @ Oct 24 2017, 06:25 PM) If he was a "swivel eyed loon" the knives would be out by now though. And at a time when looking at someone 'in a funny way' is considered hate crime by the left it hardly matters if he was 'only' in his twenties does it. Most of the Hitler youth were younger than that, wouldn't say they were all innocent would you? Different standards for different political parties. Are you comparing a couple of daft social media comments with mass extermination of the Jews? I seriously think you need to get a grip old man! It's not even on a par with Darius?Boris affair.

It's not even on a par with Darius?Boris affair. It's a hate crime, pure, simple, and should be viewed as such not as some youthful peccadillo by an errant schoolboy. And what has saint Jeremy said? Nowt, that's what. Utter and total hypocrisy. As expected.

Barking mad. I think binary opinions exist on both sides; however, I note people are also quick to make it up when facts aren’t available. Jeremy Corbyn’s popularity is a reaction to the mean spirited Tory twaddle, but he is certainly no hero of mine.

How about patriotic British nationals?And what group do you belong to? Brainwashed libtard Euromaniacs? I expect you have pictures of Tusk, Juncker and Verstofhadt on your bedroom ceiling and an EU flag fluttering outaide your house (next to the Corbyn poster). 💩
