WHAT'S WRONG WITH BRITAIN TODAY

WINSTON CHURCHILL'S STATUE DURING THE "MAY DAY" CELEBRATIONS

I came across the picture above as I was trawling through the usual shite looking for something to blog about and it REALLY FUCKING ANNOYED ME.


To me, the picture sums up what is wrong with Britain today. In one word RESPECT. Yes RESPECT for the statue of the man voted the GREATEST EVER BRITON and the man who saved us from the Nazi jackboot. RESPECT for other peoples' property. RESPECT for other peoples' point of view. RESPECT for peoples' right to freedom from state surveillance, fought for in two world wars. RESPECT for peoples' right to a quality of life. RESPECT for the right of a couple to bring up their family without interference. RESPECT for society.


IN SHORT, RESPECT FOR OTHERS AND SELF-RESPECT FOR YOURSELF.

Given that it happened during the May Day protests in 2000, you've had a lot of time to get REALLY FUCKING ANNOYED.

Monty, it may have happened in 2000 but I've just heard about it!

I remember the grass turfed mohican. That's been on posters and stuff. I wonder if that's why Bonnie Greer said Winston was half red indian on his mothers side during Question Time.
Did you know that the last white person to be called Winston was Winston Churchill ?

I'm not a fan of WC and hold him and his class responsible for the state the UK finds itself in today. Scots need to find their own heroes to motivate a new generation and avoid yobery.

Churchill remains the only UK politician to have ordered tanks against the public, during the George Square riot in 1919 which was originally an anti-rent hike protest. Scottish troops were confined to their barracks at Partick.

I have no respect for Churchill. As warmongers go, he's pretty near the top. His attitude to Chamberlain was pathetic. As Air Marshall Dowding later commented, If it hadn't been for Chamberlain's visit to Munich and the 'appeasement' the UK wouldn't have stood a chance to rebuild its air force, navy or armaments. Hitler would have rolled into Dover with great ease.

Ansel, as usual you are correct. Youu're not my brother called Iain are you cause I haven't spoken to you in 5 years but your opinions are very simliar.

Comment deleted by author. I'm not fucking suprised. Don't say you don't het a follow up on this blog.

Dark Lochnagar said...

Scunnert, I take your point but without him I might have been wearing Lederhosen, drinking steins of German lager and eating saurkraut! And I fucking hate saurkraut!

Dark Lochnagar said...

Monty old chappie. You miss the point of the post, which is the lack of respect people have for objects, other people, society and themselves. The statue could have been anyone, Dewar, Thatcher or Wellington the principal is the same.

Lauren Simcock said...

DL.This is fucking scary.My middle name IS Ian.!!! lol

subrosa said...

No I'm from Dundee.

You're right though DL. I did a post a while ago about people picnicking on the graves at Culloden. What a stooshie that created from the pc brigade I can tell you!

Foulkes is a fat fucker said...

DL. I'm talking about real people though. Not actors or characters in books ( Winston Smith in 1984 etc)

Dark Lochnagar said...

Rosie, I hope your not commenting under another guise. Picnicking on Culloden, I must have missed that one. Going to have a look.

Dark Lochnagar said...

I can't raise it Rosie. I don't think your search facility is working properly. But I have an idea what you will be saying and aye your right, again a lack of respect. I have ancestors buried at Culloden because Clan Chattan led the charge and were slaughtered in the first volleys of gunfire and I can trace my lineage back to them on my dad's side.

The "holliday " camp thing was real but the two guys in the flat wouldn't have been real as the flat would have been firebombed by homophobic neds who didn't like paediatricians either.
