Re: Brown is planning to apologies
All through history bad things happened to people who didn't deserve it.......apologising achieves no useful purpose...it digs up past events which are painful for those who experienced them.....and brings the event back to the forefront of the memory.
The past is past and we should stop looking back......humanity never seems to learn from past events......and while we deplore the things that these children were subject to, we cannot say that similar things will not happen in the future......and until we can, apologies are just weasel words.
