Anna B Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Do you include 66 year old Maggie in this number, who is quoted as saying; "I have come along basically to say to the government 'enough is enough.' They are bringing in so many austerity cuts, the welfare reforms haven't been thought out properly, yet Ian Duncan Smith seems to think it is working. I hope people strive for humanity, to be kinder to one another, and not to believe all the lies." Yeah, sounds like a real danger to the public - bring out the water cannons..... Let's blast the pensioners... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonzo77 Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Yep , the usual militant leftie rent a mob , probably Occupy and such hippy groups . Do you actually think that these protests are asking for bad things? Ending inequality etc. you think inequality is a good thing, on the scale that it is at the moment? I know their will always be very rich people and very poor people in a capitalist society, but don't you think it's gone too far? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penistone999 Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Do you consider the things that anonymous are protesting about to be good things or are you just one of those incredibly dull and old fashioned old bores who hates everything anyway? These militant fascists just want a violent run in with the authorities , hence the reason for the wearing of those stupid masks . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna B Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 yes actually i do include her, its likely she is a left over from greenpeace, CND or such like protester which in their time were also violent at times. she also condones the violence by being there in the first place. so yes if shes there she deserves the same treatment although nobody in government has the Kahunas to use the water cannon...unfortunately ! You just can't accept that ordinary, sane people are calling for change, can you? This lady is the only person I've heard speaking any sense, and you still try and besmirch her character. She's asking for kindness, consideration, and people to care for each other, and you still argue with that....... you're unbelievable... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would you suggest they go about it, baring in mind I don't think voting one rubbish lot out and getting another rubbish lot in, which is all the ballot box achieves? ---------- Post added 07-11-2014 at 00:44 ---------- QuoteTinfoilhat.

That's why she's marching. Because there's no one worth voting for. Edited November 7, 2014 by Anna B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? And here's me thinking they were just fed up of the government and want to force a change using the only methods they have access to! Silly me!

You may think the democratic principle of voting is rubbish but it is the way we and the majority of other countries think is fair. What is the alternative to voting, dictation? So, say you have a revolution, the current political parties are say banned, what happens then? A new political / ruling party is created? What will they do? Dictate redistribution, classed in majority of philosophies as theft? What if those with the money create their own army and revolt? Like warlords in feudalism! ---------- Post added 07-11-2014 at 00:51 ---------- Really?

Also is it only this government? This government made up of people (many who have never been to public school) from virtually every city in this country!

Maggie is more likely to as older people are more likely to vote full stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
