What is never considered is how the occupants of the Malvinas (who want to bask in the south seas whilst also having the benefit of the NHS, and who number only about 2,500) are quite satisfied to sit back and watch service personnel die defending their post box. Has such selfishness ever been known? What makes it all worth it? | What is never considered is how the occupants of the Malvinas (who want to bask in the south seas whilst also having the benefit of the NHS, and who number only about 2,500) are quite satisfied to sit back and watch service personnel die defending their post box.

Thank you to Russell Brand for standing up and speaking out in recent weeks. Like anyone who speaks out in modern Britain, he has been shot down. Nothing must interfere with the depressive psychosis of modern Britain, which has become a most violent and melancholic country, with no space for measured debate. Like Russell, I believe that the most powerful vote you can give is No Vote; for the days of Prime Ministers have gone, and it's time for a form of change that is far more meaningful than simply switching blue to red. The print media will only support people who do not matter and who are incapable of instigating thought - [[Mention::David Beckham|David 'rent-a-smile' Beckham]]; his [[Mention::Victoria Beckham|wife]] - famous for having nothing to do; the dum dum dummies of the [[Katie Price]] set; the overweight [[Mention::Jamie Oliver|Jamie 'Orrible]], who tells us all how to eat correctly.<br> | Thank you to Russell Brand for standing up and speaking out in recent weeks.

At what point did the dis-United Kingdom become a cabbagehead nation? Where is the rich intellect of debate? Where is our [[Mention::Maya Angelou]] , our [[Mention::James Baldwin]], our [[Mention::Allen Ginsberg]], our [[Mention::Anthony Burgess]], our political and social reformers? At what point did the shatterbrained scatterbrains take over - with all leading British politicians suddenly looking like extras from ''[[Mention::Brideshead Revisited (TV series)|Brideshead Revisited]]''? Although it is clear to assess the Addams Family of SW1X as the utterly useless and embarrassing ambassadors of a sinking England, how can we effect change without being tear-gassed? In the absence of democracy, ''there is no way''. | At what point did the dis-United Kingdom become a cabbagehead nation? Where is the rich intellect of debate?
