THREE DAYS???
You can drop the “Great”, Britain.
You once brought order to the world. Now you can’t even keep it at home.

The punishment which the wise suffer who refuse to take part in the government, is to live under the government of worse men.
-Plato
One of the penalties for refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors.

Opinion is the medium between knowledge and ignorance.

Even as late as the mid 60′s Brittin at least held onto the mindset of “Great”. You could see it in the exports to this country to some extent. Fashion, music, even the Bond movies still allowed for a flexing of British daring do.
As of the last couple of days/nights, all bets are off. Though you never know for sure, the current brits come from the same stock which survived the bombs durring the war, when all was thought to be lost. Perhaps there is still some stiff upper lip (and spine) left. The coming week(s) will tell.
Let’s see; Disarm the “law abiding” public, kow tow to political correctness and Sharia Law proponents, and then play nice with full blown violent criminals.
Sounds like a recipe for disaster to me.
So much for “Great” Britain…
Theodore Dalrymple has always been a great chronicler of the UK’s underclass.
BTW kudos for using a Clash vid….The only band that mattered.

Sorry i messed that up
It was a pretty good read, Alfie.
The kind of thing that will do nothing to sway the Dems, however. They think that they have that tiger properly saddled.
The riots in London are a direct result of decades under the welfare state that have left so many citizens of Britain devoid of ambition, motivation and self respect. Behold the future of America under continued Democratic rule.
