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?

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'
"Diet, injections, and injunctions will combine, from a very early age, to produce the sort of character and the sort of beliefs that the authorities consider desirable, and any serious criticism of the powers that be will become psychologically impossible"- Bertrand Russell, The Impact of Science on Society

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.
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
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

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.
Well, I for one always seriously consider what mags has to say then, thank Britcliffe for the free but large bag of salt it can be taken with, at a pinch.

It wouldn't surprise me if she'd had him stuffed and mounted.
You have a point, Mancie, hence the lower end of the income bracket being penalised just for being poor. What this so called government need to do is stop handing out our income taxes to foreigners of every ilk who seem to look upon the UK as some sort of milch cow. I still firmly believe that we should kick Europe into touch, but our cowardly subservience to the status-quo makes it a virtual impossibility.
I haven't voted in any election for the last decade, but give us a referendum on membership of the European Union and I will be first past the post.

I didn't know we had any social meaning in this country any more ,if by social meaning you mean solidarity . It's dead and buried by a culture of individualism .
Maybe Britcliffes locked himself in, to get away from all the bad publicity over his expenses.
sadly this is true.The french may not be the most ideal role models on many things but they sure could teach us a few things about protesting.If a politition so much as farts in the wrong direction up go the blockades
