Cancel Cultures Logical End

 With old dead white men (and Women) apparently fair game for cancellation ...

Two Of These Men May Be Cancelled ...

which is of course the removal of their images and presence from the public and historical sphere .....

Democracies Survival?

 A recent NPR/Ipsos poll found that 64% of Americans believe ....

Democracy At Risk?

.... US democracy is at risk of failing, and the fragility of America's democracy is what alarms foreign observers of the country. 

Cancel Culture Justice

 So a Bristol jury have decided ...

Taking The Law Into Your Own Hands Is Vigilante Justice

... that a bunch of white Black Lives Matter (BLM) protesters were not guilty of criminal damage, when they toppled over a public statue of a long dead white man, of whom they suddenly disapproved. 

Small People Are No People At All

....Well that's the sentiments of many. As Randy Newman sang ..... Short people got no reason to live, they wear platform shoes on their nasty little feet. They have nasty little ideas. Don't want no short people 'Round here

Cameron: "Fightback!"

After losing the streets to what the BBC still insists are "youths" (the first man convicted, was a 31 yr old primary school mentor, followed by a postman, a lifeguard, and a charity worker), the Prime Minister, in his latest 'Finest Hour' moment said that: "We needed a fight back and a fight back is underway. We have seen the worst of Britain, but I also believe we’ve seen some of the best of Britain: the million people who’ve signed up on Facebook to support the police, communities coming together in the cleanup operations."

Churchill would have been proud!

He apparently sees no irony in announcing a "fightback" against many of his own so called fellow 'citizens' of this dis - United Kingdom .... effectively treating this as yet another 'War'. Churchill said, in another conflict, " We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender" .... bit more of a ring to it one feels.

Is this really the same politician who once said that we should "Hug A Hoodie"?  .... so now, as well as being under pressure to stop  further police funding cuts,  he will also probably be under pressure to stop reducing the size of the Army, after all, you need an Army to 'fightback' in a war ....

Another politician was once asked what made or broke Prime Ministerships, he said 'Events, my dear boy, events' .... this will be the making or breaking of Cameron as a P.M. ... fortunately 'Sergeant Showers' turned up yesterday, and the rioters stayed at home rather than get wet, so no riots last night  .... Victory!
