NIBK is inflammable.

If it is a hot summer then there will be riots, anything like last year no chance. One day I am going to compare, corruption civil unrest and revolutions succesful and and attempted with each countries average temperature.
I think though that while there is a correlation the Russians are going to screw my figures up.

Yes, just as it was the custom to riot throughout Thatcher's dictatorship. I think we either just like rioting or all our governments are crap.

We don't have that many, not like, for example, the French.

Nothing much concentrates a government's mind more than riots.....maybe we're due a few?

Well at least they won't be chasing motorists while they are being pelted with croissants and bars of Green and Black's chocolate.

I am frightened to say that there may be more truth in what UB said then we might ever have expected when this was still an upright moral country with authorities that we felt we could trust.

The only way to get this useless load of plonkers to realise what we feel as far as the people are concerned is to have some kind of democratic demonstration to let them know what we think of their egregious actions.

Just sitting back and taking it leads them into suppressing even more of our hard won liberties and further dragging this country down the tubes.

I believe it is easier now to see their plans for the future and I don't much like what I see. What worries me is when they finally say that it is no longer necessary for us to vote on a government any more. That is when we are finally lost!

Ok just throwing it out there.... I DONT think we will have mass unrest in the summer, I dont think there will be riots, I think we will all just get on with it and try to dig ourselves out of the personal holes we many people find themselves in.
I think this is a load of media rubbish to make people buy papers.

I am obviously out numbered by people that either think there will be unrest or appear to want unrest, I will return to this thread in September and see if I was wrong or right.

No one said change was easy and sometimes a few heads have to roll (quite literally at times) to achieve a desired outcome.....

I do not like the way our liberties and trusts have been whittled away and sometimes it takes a man of will to go out there and say 'enough is enough' and start the ball rolling....... I am sure there are some people with rank in the forces who sit at home seriously debating at what point an army would mobilise for the good of the people

Well said, and I agree with you. I still feel most of the current economical crisis has been made worse by it been hyped in the media.

500,000 folk in Barbours and green wellies turned out without a single car being burned! And they took their litter home with them!!

But I'd gladly get my pitchfork out and sharpen it up for the revolution if it meant stringing up 655 useless, lying, freloading MPs from London's lamp-posts.

That people pick a story from the sun and then over react the whole time, when its pointed out the over react they get all shirty.
I am rarely right about anything these days, according to my mrs anyways, so I just thought I would revisit this thread.

Are you the same les as the youtube video about the hardman?
