The thing is, all this happening and NO-ONE is taking a stance against it!

I'm so fed up of writing on messageboards about all this crap...

Yesterday I got half the folks on my bus discussing everything that's happening, and they're all as angry as we are. They said how fed up they are with it and how they can't see a way out...
And I said..

"Hey, WHEN was the last time you sat on a bus having a conversation like this?"

"Well...never." came the reply...

"EXACTLY!" I said..."And THAT is what is difference, THAT is what is starting to happen. We are ALL beginning to TALK to each other as never before...and with that, because of that, change *will* happen."

The Stiff Upper Lip and the Mustn't Grumble of the past is starting to fade *into* the past...And it's that attitude which has kept us all so silent for so long, and let these bastards get away with all they have...

Selling off our forests and woodlands is just about the final straw for me.
