I can't see it being any higher. Unfortunately, that 1% is the Establishment. They can use their power through the media to destroy anyone who advances a conflicting view.<br /><br />Hence the Conservative party publicly allying with an organisation openly contemptuous of British culture.Robnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-6783773962532191312009-10-11T10:34:06.167+01:002009-10-11T10:34:06.167+01:00point 1.

They give the queen some authority as spokesperson (ably supported by Prince Philip) while they sort things out. After a while they hand the keys of the kingdom to Nigel Farage to restore democracy. Gordon Brown and Harriet Harman are erased from the history books, David Cameron teaches politics at Eton and Lembit Opik becomes minister for fun.<br /><br />OK.

The UAF response is only inflaming matters - visibly.<br /><br />One of the results of the Poll Tax debacle was that a lot of people realised that, by not paying a bill straight away, they would not automatically be jailed. There was a certain leeway which allowed them to have their say before the hammer came down.<br /><br />It's going to take something like that to make people realise that they can legitimately object to government bullying. <br /><br />If this is the catalyst to standing up and saying no on a whole host of issues, then I'm all for it.<br /><br />Like you, I wouldn't stake a large sum on it, though.Dick Puddlecotehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01481866882188932892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-89909386814642786002009-10-10T23:56:35.629+01:002009-10-10T23:56:35.629+01:00Bravo Laura Roberts, my only picky point is that i...Bravo Laura Roberts, my only picky point is that it's not the start of the rivers of blood, they have been flowing for some while now, just not been reported in the press.bannedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02406037760273820029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-28615327571956723762009-10-10T23:47:57.766+01:002009-10-10T23:47:57.766+01:00In 100 years, if the world has not destroyed itsel...In 100 years, if the world has not destroyed itself, it will be impossible to understand the word indigenous in the UK.timbonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06985165416240833253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-26398515650227339482009-10-10T23:45:28.832+01:002009-10-10T23:45:28.832+01:00Great post, DP, spot on!Great post, DP, spot on!Barking Spiderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00968827142725464915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-40420347231020792392009-10-10T22:58:21.413+01:002009-10-10T22:58:21.413+01:00Dick,

I briefly heard about Manchester today but not read up on it yet. Sounds like things are kicking off. I am appauled at people who are given a home in our country and then turn on the hand that feeds them, that's not to say if you are an immigrant you should keep your mouth shut if you think you have been wronged but nor should the indigenous population when they know they are being wronged.
