Thread Name: BS: Boat race disrupted...
Subject: RE: BS: Boat race disrupted...
i'm sure some toffs can be absolutely spiffing chaps, it's just the company they keep that's the problem...in the uk just now we have a government of tory millionaires who are determinedly working hard to dismantle everything that ordinary folk have that makes life a bit more comfortable, enjoyable and secure. these are seriously ruthless yet ignorant political operators. while obviously there are many good folk in any class, it tends to be the better off who tolerate and support this thuggish behaviour. they can splash about in boats or do whatever they like until other people -or animals- get hurt, but that is what happens if you sanction the tories in power.
(by the way -this is not a party political point-i'm well aware there are plenty of 'tories' only prepared to tinker around with capitalism in all 3 major parties)
