Shouldn't people take respsonsiblity for being fat?:rolleyes:
figure it out for yourself ...if you can.
If i want a party political broadcast I'll watch one on TV, or I'll read a pamphlet that comes through the dooe or I'll talk to one of those clowns at the tube.....
It might be green and pleasnt where you are but it's not round here, maybe even less so than in 1997
"Families now so seldom eat together. They don`t prepare meals properly. Wives are pressured into thinking they ought to go to work instead of looking after children. And it is the breakdown of family that is at the root of it.
[...]
We not only have an epidemic of obesity, we have a huge problem of AIDS and the Government`s attitude is to do all it can to promote buggery. Maybe those two are somewhat intimately connected."
Not that that's much less barking as he appears to be suggesting that AIDS is a "gay plague" when obviously it's not.
He spoke of the comparission of the UK with other European countries such as France and Italy when families still do sit down toegether for meals.
Do you not think it is hugely out of context turning what he did say into an attack on homosexuality? :rolleyes:
Who, me?
I may have been hearing things but I swear they tried to take responsibility for the right to join a trade union in their PEB on Friday... were they not there when Thatcher was in power?!?!
It could be construed that way though. Politicians should be careful with what they say, Bush with his 'stupid and simple' way of putting things implied once that the Iraq war was a Christian crusade against Islam. You have to remember that a whole nation and more hears what they say, and not everyone will take it in the same way they will.
in his ramble about obesity he used the word buggary twice and blamed the labour party for promoting it.
But 60% of people in Britain who contract HIV are straight.
He comes across as very simple and ignorant and out of touch with reality.
There is a splendid moment in The Best of Have I Got News for You in which a member of the House of Lords remarks
"At the turn of the century [i.e. c. 1900] the Church of England was pro-fox hunting and anti-buggery, and now it's pro-buggery and anti-fox hunting."
How times change... :-)
Also morrocan can you explain how he hates all things European?
From my knowelege it was only the European governmental arrangements the Tories were opposed to and not the European culture, traditions, lifestyle, food and family values, am I wrong? From what I know the UK is a part of Europe, do they hate all things British along with this hatrid of French bred, Irish TV and Italian Pizza?
Im still strugging to work out how their praise of European family values relates in any way to what you believe to be anti - homosexuality!
Is it because homosexuals cannot have a family?
If so perhaps you advoate the banning of any talk of family to ensure we do not offend homosexuals in a joyful PC world!?
Definition: \Bug"ger*y\, n. [OF. bougrerie, bogrerie, heresy. See
{Bugger}.]
Unnatural sexual intercourse; sodomy.
Do you not think the accecptance of homosexuality has had an impact on what people perceive the role of the family and values associated?
Try tolerance, it does more to enhance peaceful society than getting high and mighty about the preferences of others.
No. Do you?
has it effected my family life/values? no ...why should it ...how could it?
Haha how can something become so out of context?? I wonder....
:rolleyes:
