    A thought. Has anyone heard how Gordons drunken aunt Alky Aida is getting on?
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    "The purpose of a university education for Left / Liberals is to attain all the politically correct attitudes towards minorties, and the financial means to live as far away from them as possible."

    England is rapidly becoming a very scary place. Sad thing is that our minister of Justice would probably get a boner out of that that perverted little weasel he's tapping all of us at will, I have to consider the fact that when I have a saucy conversation some system-lackey is jerking of. These things can be of use but not with the wrong people in place but they always are.

    Yes, I've heard that the country with the most tapped phones is the Netherlands, not percentage wise, but in absolute figures as well...
    Abandon all hope.

    It's pretty much a non issue here...

    Most people I know are more concerned with other political issues more, I really care very little for the whole thing myself.

    No.

    What really makes me laugh is how many people die each year from preventable diseases and treatable diseases, and then you consider how much we spend on fighting terrorism, which has claimed less lives per year than lightning bolts, if I remember correctly.

    The war on terrorism has claimed far more lives than terrorism itself. And what's even more amusing is that almost every day, some nutjob holds people hostage at gunpoint in a bank or at their place of work, and that's basically the same thing as terrorism and it happens more often, but no one is really afraid of that.

    Since they probably can't nuke us and they can't crash planes into stuff anymore, I really have to wonder why people are so afraid.

    Personally I am more afraid of dying in my sleep due to carbon monoxide poisoning, but I think they have detectors for that. Maybe we should spend that money on making sure every single home has a carbon monoxide detector that beeps when the battery gets low. Probably save more lives that way, and best of all, the world doesn't hate us.

    Don't worry, the excitement makes me do that as well.

    Although, according to his wiki page, he's suspected of being involved in the Lebanese mafia.

    At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.
