Sadly I think you are right. As the economy falters and the unemployed rises things will get difficult. I am trying to use local businesses and buy British where I can.

Fawlty Towers and Harry Potter according to this mornings paper! I'm amazed they were still showing that episode of Fawlty Towers. Yes, for some reason Netflix were showing the original 1977 version with multiple use of the N word and Wog'. It's not clear why they didn't have the BCC-edited 2013 version which had been approved by John Cleese. The misogynistic abuse being heaped on JK Rowling, further fueled by that shitrag Sun's front page is simply appalling.

The world certainly has gone mad. It appears that minority groups have the influence to change things which I find unbelievable. You can’t change history.

That is the thing that concerns me the most in the present times, it's very unreal. Yes what's done is done, learn the lessons and move forward together. Denial never works. p.s. Now that little dermot Farage has been kicked off LBC I wonder which vipers nest he has his eye on to front now to cause dissension, or am I being a little cynical here

it used to be that People 'Take Offence' whether or not any is given, and therefore make it their problem. The next step is usually to spread their misery around by justifying their position and blaming others. What is unusual about the current complaint is that the events happened a couple of centuries ago and the people responsible are not here to answer for it.
Everyone is faulty in some way and if we were to dig deep enough those flaws can be exposed and a legacy wiped out - for example; the (until recently) saintly Aung San Suu Kyi. In modern times we have human trafficking a vast scale, slavery is rife in western Europe, people are exploited on an industrial scale in most countries in the developing world and national Governments murder their own citizens. All of this is happening today. What should be the priority?

Spot on, they can't see the glass in front of their faces they are too self oriented to view the bigger picture, it's where we are right now and it's sad certainly the nadir society wise in my lifetime. This does not apply on a local level we are fortunate enough to live within a very caring and sharing community but of course made up for the most part by senior members but even the youngsters here have learnt those caring skills well which gives me hope.

When I worked for a British "Government Department" back in the late 70s-80s a great deal of focus was spent monitoring the infiltration of socialist groups by the extremist far left sponsored by that big country to the East. The objective was to subvert Western Values by undermining the established norm de-stabilizing law and order, dividing the countries political establishment and uprooting financial stability, this way the destruction comes from within (think of the Roman Empire and Brexit). The method was to use any opportunity to infiltrate legitimate organizations with a strong message carrying out legal actions and then turn it to their advantage with civil disruption and cultural division. Its been going on for decades and will continue until the objective is achieved, the methodology changes with the advance of technology but the goal is the same.

It is rather simple: people are stupid. Most of them are. Like sheep. All you need are some barking dogs and you can direct sheep any direction you want.. Its not the sheep who are dangerous - but watch the few barking dogs!
