Thread Name: BS: UK party conferences
Subject: RE: BS: UK party conferences
cool yer boots, comrades. maybe you are left-wing zealots. i increasingly find that i am discussing stuff with people and struggle to find any agreement ('i never thought we would have to fight for the NHS all over again' - 'yeah, but what about about the muslim paedophiles'or 'it's disgusting the way that the palestinians are treated' - 'labour supporting anti-semite!' etc. i feel very mainstream but no one is accepting that these days.
however, i also feel we have to get far more angry with the government and not on these tiresome little threads.
the fact is that the british establishment have been exploiting and brutalising people all over the world - and here from peterloo to the somme to derry. opposing those 'people' is the only reasonable and patriotic thing to do. not left wing-just common decency
