Month I - Day X - the year is the eightth in the second Millenium

Good Day to you all (New Year Podcast HERE. My computer blew up,
so limited as to what I can write. Nothing much seems to have happened
in the UK since I have been on holidays to Germania.

Firstly: HIGHLY Recommended: LUST, CAUTION (R18). Fantastic,
gritty drama about Chinese students in 1942 who believe in a cause,
and suffer the consequences. VERY good 157 minutes!!!

Back to Britain, Conservatives are rambling on about stupid ideas about
the welfare state (= how to successfully widen the gap between
rich and poor even further by cutting already low benefits).
And Labour continue to destroy the last bit of welfare state
that remains (by further PFI's and rubbish like that).
Why? Oh why does the population not go on a General Strike??
Everyone is so lulled in by the promise of money! We only
live once, so what are possessions? Nothing (you can't take
them with you!).
And at the next General Election: Don't just sit at home and
refuse to vote. Do the opposite: VOTE!!! This is you one chance
to really make changes! Vote Green or Socialist or ANY other
party but Con-Labour! The effect will be immediate! A 90%
turnout at the ballot box with both mainstream parties voted
out would be the solution and the impetus for them to rethink
they anti-social and anti-democratic policies! We are in danger
of turning into a Police State comparable to Germany in 1933/5.

There endeth my plea. :-)
