I take Malcolm's point about the terms used. However the issue, be it politics or at these musical gatherings is one of power. Or more the attempt by some to seize and use power over others.

I feel that it is up to all of us to recognise and to deal with this abuse, wherever we may find it. To prevent in everyday life, the bad seeds from growing into the vigourous plant that will strangle us all. For do not all the human monsters of history, look just like you and me?
