So a group of children are playing football near to a building, they start getting a little bit silly until someone kicks the ball too hard and smashs a window. All of the children run off. The next day, all the children are running around the school blaming one another. One child even has the audacity to blame the 'rules of the playground', he believed that because they were allowed to play football it means that they are not responsible when inevitably something bad happens.
SOUND FAMILIAR? Well thats because that is exactly what our politics are like in Britain today.
I'm sick to the back teeth of these silly people (who we apparently decieded to let run the country). You only have to listen to the news, watch Question Time or read the newspaper to realise that yes problems have been made. Britain is a very forgiving country when it comes to people making mistakes. However, what we find hard to allow is when no one stands up and holds there hand up and takes the blame. WHOS FAULT IS IT THEN?
The Government would have you believe that we live in a time of democracy. BALLS. In 2003 I joined the Tofts in London on a march against the war in Iraq, along with the other million people in London that day we didn't believe that a full blown war could be justified for the reasons that our and the American goverment were giving. In London, and hundreds of other cities around the world people marshed (might I add, peacefully). Were we listened to? OF FUCKING COURSE NOT. Same has happened with the Lockerbie Bomber...'Oh yeah, lets release this man on compassionate grounds'. You have to be stupid to believe that they would release a man who was responsible for killing 270 people merely because he was dying. COME ON. How thick do these people think we are????
I'm tired of it. And I'm only 22. I here my Dad talking about it all and it just makes me think that things just aren't going to get any better. I think the only thing that creates hope for us, is that glorious man in America, Mr Obama. Hopefully we will get our heads from up our own arses long enough to realise that we are inevitably set to self destruct politics wise.
Just like Jerry Springer, Rebecca is going to have her final thought for the day. The news the other day was commenting on how Gordon Brown had been snubbed by Mr Obama at the Summit. WELL. Just think about this, maybe Mr Obama (Brown by name, Brown nosing by nature) believes that his role as an influential figure in World Politics isn't just to create a 'photo opportunity' and play on his public image, he's more concerned with doing something about Global Warming (which is why the summit was organised wasn't it!?). Britain plays on this 'friendship' they have with America and reference it constantly. Do you ever see/hear it in America??? No.
Fortunately Britian you haven't been kicked out of the sandpit. You were never in the sandpit. Your still just playing with your imaginary friend (who strangely resembles George Bush?!).
RANT OVER. Next blog, something a little lighter. A little description of my dream house.
Night kids.
