The British Labour party has had a long standing conflict with Tory landowners which unfortunately drags working farmers into this political malaise.

Also successive governments of either hue have shown nothing but disdain for our military veterans, the eejits who salute each while adorned in high ranking military uniforms, displaying pomp and splendour make me feel physically sick on Remembrance Day. It's time they got their $hit together and start ensuring our ex-servicemen & women who need help - get it.

Whatever your cause, whatever your protest Sir Kid Starver and his cronies are supressing it. Three years in jail for holding up a placard. WTF!
Is it way off topic because I referred to politics and problems in this country rather than the USA, Israel or wherever else?
People with a political bent, such as yourself BT, could do something about events in this country, however, nothing is done.

The Veterans, their families and also those still serving are given more help by charities, such as the one that I do voluntary work for, than by any government and it is getting harder to help because less is being donated to charity.

Putting the miltary on the streets of the USA does not bother me one bit, I don't live there and it is their problem.
