When you think I'm being grumpy, I'm actually sat here in hysterics.

When you think I'm trying to be funny, I'm actually sat here hysterical, but wearing a strait jacket, and dictate the posts to the nurse.

;):D

So were we, glad to see your sense of humour is back. Now shall we arrange an uprising against HBC's use of stainless steel street furniture in the town centre?

Re: would you support protest?
 

As I suspect.

It's all come as a bit of a shock, hasn't it?

Didn't you like the stainless steel street furniture on Broadway?

It only cost half a million quid.

Did you get a wet bot-bot, because the seats remain wet, days after it last rained?

You need to get out more.

;):D

Re: would you support protest?
 

We hope it's wet from the rain, but could stainless steel street furniture be getting wet because in the dark they get used as a substitute for a closed toilet?
:eek:

Would I support Protest?

NO, I would be out on the street organising a revolt against it.

Re: would you support protest?
 

I am getting really worried about you Less and your toilet fetish :D

Re: would you support protest?
 

No need to worry, come the revolution we'll all be with our backs against the wall without a pot to hiss in, (come to think of it, with our backs to the wall we'll be in no position to pish into anything).

Different Worlds mate. I see your point but can't see anything happening as we've become to comfortable in our ways. No matter how much the screw is turned folk will whinge & bitch, maybe even march in protest, but to actually force a change the attitude isn't present.

Sweeping cuts across the board are painful & divisive but as long as people continue to get something they won't rise up in open rebellion/revolution peaceful or bloody because it puts them outside their comfort zone. Easy enough to see by the "Uprising" of the Anarchy/Anti capitalists/outraged students. a couple of days kicking off & slumming it to fight the Fascist pigs & their lackeys then back home for a shower & kyle, back to their state funded accommodation & their giro, or hand outs from Mummy & Daddy in comfortable suburbia who are plodding away in the City.

Nah ! We're to soft & we really don't know the meaning of true hardship & suffering so it's not going to happen.

The subtle difference between us and the arabs who are rebelling is -
..they know they are under the rule of tyrannical despots.

Obedient slaves are the ones who think they have 'freedom'

Re: would you support protest?
 

Hardship, there is no real hardship in the good ole U.K, in comparison to these middle east places, i say that having seen first hand, as fer supporting any protest in the middle east, not a chance at this point in time, thing is no-one has any idea what they would be supporting? democracy? fundamentalists? whilst everyone knows the existing rule is crap, ya gotta know what will replace it.

Re: would you support protest?
 

in the uk i think its a case of been pushed to the limit before action is taken by the public like the lead up to the poll tax riots which acheived the desired effect and brought and end to the poll tax yet withing a few months these people who stood up and acted were branded thugs and criminals and the majority of people bought into it.

however when a group of truckers fought for everyone to get fuel lowered and blockaded rifineries a lot of people didnt see the bigger picture and moaned about fuel shortages when petrol stations ran out of fuel :rolleyes:

today the british public choose to use tools such as facebook to protest which are very easily ignored by those in charge and unless the protest group gets a mention in the press its most likely the people in charge will never be aware of it.

sadly nothing ever gets done until it starts effecting london and the polititions directly.If it appears they are going to loose a lot of votes their ears open

Re: would you support protest?
 

Same old mantra.

It's if it was taught to you by robots.

Keep up the good work.

Your puppet masters will be pleased with you.

Is MargaretR Lifeinthemix in disguise?

Re: would you support protest?
 

Mocking is expected, by the zealous holders of the one truth.

;):D

Re: would you support protest?
 

Who's mocking? Have you seen that Lifeinthemix website? From start to finish it's the loonatic garbage that Margaret posts on here; in fact, those posts could well be a copy and paste job.

As for one truth...yeah, just believe me.
