Jon says Stan was pissed....was he? I watched the clip and he seemed to be advocating opening up an air- bridge between Greece and the U.K., unless I missed something he didn't mention anything about ‘little people' or the rules not being for ‘people of his stature'?I just want people to post stuff that's true and not to try and embellish what they see for their own purpose, probably why I hate the BBC because they only report half the truth most of the time, why we can't get back to good honest truthful reporting I don't know
Where are the John Pilger's of today's journalists?
Great song by the way Sir B👍

That's an interesting concept that government and leaders have no influence on the people in the country they govern

Sorry, he sounded pissed and traveled to Greece via Bulgaria against Foreign Office advice and Greek attempts to stop UK residents arriving, but you carry on knowing your place compared to the toffs. They won't thank you for it, but it'll be appreciated.
Support opening 'air bridges' by all means, but as a UK resident, to be taken seriously, don't do so from Greece FFS.

Precisely what I mean about the rich and powerful Jon, Spanker says Capitalism is self corrupting but as for the alternative, Socialism or god forbid Communism,believe me there is no more a corrupt system than the one in Russia and China, and as for the champagne socialists we have in this country in the Labour Party, if ever there was hypocrisy then it's staring us all in the eyes there!

I don't think anyone apart from you would see it that way. Joe average doesn't agree.

George Orwell wrote a good story about it too.
Human nature and pure communism don't mix unfortunately. As a species we appear to have a selfish trait that goes beyond fight or flight / natural selection etc. And teeters over the edge into a real relish in f***ing other people over and enjoying their downfall and misfortune.
Community rather than communism. How about that as an idea?
Actually I really like that. I'm running for election on that ticket. Vote me!

As I've said previously, a coalition of ministers voted for independently on personal merit rather than political association would be the ideal situation for me.
You might even see a green with more power than his/her/their Nissan leaf

You despise Communism and say community is essentially the same thing. A couple of typo's?

There is a slight flaw in that system in that some would be from the left and some from the right, they would then need to vote in changes in Laws etc.... similar to what they do now and you would have to go with the majority....you can't win Noj
There are far too many MP's anyway, we don't need 600 greedy ( not all ) privileged representatives, and as for that lot in the other chamber.....I'd abolish them straight away and save the country a fortune!
