    BT: From the Spectator:

    ''The failure by those who govern us to recognise the simplicity of this truth has led to the present crisis: our homes a prison, our economy a ruin, our lives at a standstill — all to ‘save’ the lives of people who will die anyway of other causes, before very long''.

    Capitalism is also falling into a crises, the question is just ''when''?

    Maybe we can ask ourselves what economic system will be if that happens?

    After summer I prepare for winter I buy suitable clothes etc, Can I do anything to prepare before the economic system collapses??

    I wish I could put it so eloquently BT, Mr Wilson sums up the whole bloody ridiculous pantomime so well at the end,

    "‘The whole of our life,’ wrote Chateaubriand in his memoirs, ‘is spent wandering around our grave; our various illnesses are so many puffs of wind which bring us a little or a great deal nearer port’. The failure by those who govern us to recognise the simplicity of this truth has led to the present crisis: our homes a prison, our economy a ruin, our lives at a standstill — all to ‘save’ the lives of people who will die anyway of other causes, before very long."

    But there is no accident in this world ,everything is an incident. Concerning your life ,just ask ''why''? No ,no go deeper!

    Well, when civilisation falls into a crisis ,people will start to look for answers. On a personal level the question is ''why me!'' On the collective level ,the society waits for other people to burst out with other ideas? ''Prout''? (The PRO gressive U tilisation T heory.)

    The first country to establish PROUT will be in INDIA, 'Amra Bengali'. Amra Bangali ( We are Bengalis) is a political party in India, based on the socio-economic and political philosophy Progressive Utilization Theory.

    The aims and objectives of Amra Bangali include:

    Restoration and development of Bengali language and culture.
    Economic self-sufficiency.
    Self-determination in socio-political field.
    Re-organization of the territory of Bengal with all the like-minded people having respect for Bengali language and culture and giving a new name Bangalistan to this territory. (and more) .....

    Israel will lead the Middle East. It will be the first to establish the Progressive Utilisation Theory.

    Scotland refuses to allow cruise passengers to disembark in Greenock because of Covid restrictions.

    England allows thousands of marauding Jocks to rampage around London despite Covid restrictions.

    Sinkov is right. Bercow is right. The lunatics are running the asylum.

    Some short memories on here when BLM marched and the thousands marching ( so called on the BBC building the other week without masks protesting about their liberties freedom of speech and how in effectual lockdowns are )
    They were correct to do that as I remember in some eyes - I’m struggling to see how it’s any different to the jocks

    As far as I can see, no-one on here is telling the rest of us we about to endure a "Third Wave" and the R rate is jumping off the page. If this is true it seems a bit weird to allow thousands of marauding Jocks to rampage around London despite the new threat.

    Mayor Khan is today advocating vaccinations for all Londoners, yet in the name of commerce allows Trafalgar Square, Hyde Park and Oxford Street to be trashed and become ram jammed full of beer swigging Scottish hooligans for 48 hours.

    Either we are in the grip of a pandemic or we are not. Which is it?

    Didn’t say it was right BT simply stated what others were posting not too many weeks back where very large groups of people were marching in London ( no social distancing or masks ).
    But the political issue and view seemed to give them a get out of jail card same as BLM when they did it and our police force took a knee and backed them , what’s good for the goose is good for the gander.
