Two Reasons To Be Cheerful And One Not To Be

[poliphilo]

!, I finally got to hear the cuckoo. It was travelling roughly east to west, singing as it flew.

2, The One Show showed a tribute to Ken Russell fronted by one of his daughters. Apparently he was a great dad.

3. The BNP's election broadcast was censored. Every time the man said something uncomplimentary about Islam they beeped him out. I yield to no one in my dislike of the Boneheaded Nazi Party but party politicals should be sacrosanct.  People in a democracy have a right to know what the people who are soliciting their vote are saying- no matter how ugly. Besides, shutting people up only wins them sympathy.

It's an excellent parlour game.

This thing about bending over backward to be Politically Correct is biting us all in the backsides all the time. We clean up the things we MOST NEED TO KNOW about others. Ridiculous!

And so true: ...shutting people up only wins them sympathy...

These are hardly the people who deserve or need sympathy!

A man was arrested in London the other day for reading aloud from an account of Islam (not very complimentary) by the young Winston Churchill.
