hmm the trouble with this situation is the apathy of the people in genral,, we are almost beyond caring about what our so called elected goverment does to us,, and thats problem number one,

the moment we stop caring about whats going on and adopt the "im alright jack so f00k you attitude" living for the moment, ect, it all sound great at the time but step back and see the bigger picture, what we let them get away with now to us the people,these jokers are meant to have are best intrests at heart (yea right) just imagine what thay will be getting away with when the current young generation grow up,, your gran children and there children are going to be in a real mess and there gunna ask like we ask now how the hell did we get into this mess, what generation is gunna be the one to say right enough is enough and change things for the better?

Im forever telling people that we need a revolution but they just laugh at me............. dunno

People denigrate protest marches too - its beyond me, it really is..... apathy seems to be the order of the day for most british folks and Im sure its just down to conditioning and propagana - I just cant figure when we will finally stand against the oppression that has kept us cowed down for so long........... laugh if you like but they soon listen when civil unrest is threatened - the problem is they just keep us comfortable enough to keep a lid on it but if things get much worse in the current financial climate, that lid is gonna blow big style...........

Something is happening and Central Government are not involved, It started in Ireland and has spread over here, it's called Transition Towns

and you can join in have a read and mull it over.


It's the end of the world as we know it and i feel fine.

Thank You - thats a brilliant site and exactly the sort of thing I was on about - people do need to take the initiative instead of sitting back bemoaning their lot.............. Thanks again thumbs up

I will look further into it in the coming days - so far I only looked at the promoting farmers markets slide show but theres so much more to see there too applause
