Seeing as the other major bloggers of the great stratosphere that is the internet have not or dare not (surely not, their balls are bigger than that) speak of the great tidal wave of protests taking place across the country as this is being written. I shall not refer to place and time for have you made it to this blog unassisted then you are surely education enough to redeem yourself of any knowledge you might have missed.
One wonders should we point out to the mighty strikers and strikees that under EU law they cannot discriminate against foreign workers - it is not possible UNLESS the white omnipresent white elephant is tackled tet รก tet. Are we beginning to see the end of British associateship of the European Union, Thatcher had to tackle the Unions to rid the country of its malice back in the 80's for good or for bad it did jump start the economy. Perhaps it is time for the workers to regain their place in British Union history and rid the country of its malice only this time the malice is provided by Westminster in the shape of New Labour. True the Conservatives brought the EU upon the UK it is only fair that they bare the responsibility for reinstalling the British component of European Federal State.
Am I am little Englander you say, well thank you for those patronising thoughts they shall be returned in kind, on a further note however if I am to be called a little Englander them I am proud member of the other 35 or so million who also want loser relationships with the EU.

About
Right, I intend to take this section seriously this time - previously I have just randomly tried to write profound things without any relevance to anything at all. But not this time. Lets begin, I am going to be anonymous - believe you me when I say that. To many good people have been screwed over by equally bad people for voicing their opinion and with the libel laws in this country I think this is only a natural and wise position to adopt.
I am a university student who (rather annoyingly sometimes) has an opinion on everything. Based in the UK and primarily interest myself with what goes on over here. Hence for the people who come to sue me for defamation I can calmly tell you this; get a court order or more importantly get a life. Suing a poor student because your under-compensated ego is famished? No sir, grow a pair and grow them fast, there are more people with more opinions than you can possibly imagine, I only happen to be one of them.
UK and EU
- This graph shows something very interesting, it shows how people's attitude towards leaving the EU has changed over the years. The graph is constantly updated and the data sets used can be found here. As the trend currently stands, the clever British public can spot a quisling when it spits them in the face.

Random literary pieces which hopefully give a means to an end to provoke some change.
When you go home
Tell them of us and say
For their tomorrow
We gave our today
-Kohima Memorial
-Elie Wiesel
One basic truth can be used as a foundation for a mountain of lies, and if we dig down deep enough in the mountain of lies, and bring out that truth, to set it on top of the mountain of lies; the entire mountain of lies will crumble under the weight of that one truth. And there is nothing more devastating to a structure of lies than the revelation of the truth upon which the structure of lies was built, because the shock waves of the revelation of the truth reverberate, and continue to reverberate throughout the Earth for generations to follow, awakening even those people who had no desire to be awakened to the truth.
-Delamer Duverus
That which is not just, is not Law; and that which is not Law, ought not to be obeyed.
A court with a mission is a menace. A supreme court with a mission is a tyranny.
-Daniel Hannan
A great and mighty nation a mere 50 years ago, now brought down to a self destructive society, bent on cultural suicide. Where change has been fast but progress slow.
-Unknown
The more corrupt the state, the more numerous the laws.
- Tacitus
Those who profess to favor freedom, yet deprecate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightening. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will.
– Frederick Douglass, African-American abolitionist
Then there are the progressives themselves – a term that is becoming increasingly bandied about. When someone declares themselves a progressive, my hackles rise. What they mean in reality is that everyone else must be forced to bend to their vision of society, to conform to the socialist utopia they espouse, to be a good little prole. Progressives have no place for independently minded individuals. Progressives are the enemy of individualism, and are, therefore, the very essence of misanthropy. They choose to forget that society is composed of individuals. Progressives are to be despised utterly and completely. Perhaps, most of all is their mangling of the language. Progressives do not want progress, but regression to the dark days of the cold war eastern bloc style of living – the tractor stats will always be going up, despite the enslavement of the population and the collapse of the economy. There is nothing progressive about a progressive, just as there is nothing liberal about a liberal.

We do not come as aggressors. Our war is not a war of conquest; we are fighting in the defence of our homes, our families, and posterity. We have petitioned, and our petitions have been scorned; we have entreated, and our entreaties have been disregarded; we have begged, and they have mocked when our calamity came. We beg no longer; we entreat no more; we petition no more. We defy them!
-William Jennings Bryan

The Difficult we do immediately; the Impossible might take a little time.

Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds discuss events; Small minds discuss people.

The strongest man in the world is he who stands alone.
