That would seem to be the case? As our version of alleged democracy has degenerated into a spectator sport? AND JOBS/OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE CRONIES/THE OLD BOYS?

When will people actually be smart enough to realise that there is no such thing as a Democracy ! The pretend democracy we've had to endure thus far is nothing more than a universal compliance mode to greed, stupidity & vanity !
The brainwashed calling the thinkers indoctrinated !

Gee, that's funny, Jeff old mate. Weren't the Labor luvvies at their conference last week walking around with "TORY SCUM" badges on their jackets? Doesn't look too much like respect to me.

The western world is imploding. And I put it all down to multiculturalism. No society can exist in peace unless there is widespread agreement on what constitutes correct behavior. This is the glue which holds all societies together. The importation of people from cultures whose cultural values are diametrically opposite to the west has caused our once fairly cohesive societies to rupture.

Worse, the left side of politics has not only gone on to champion the causes of every imported foreign group, in order to buy their votes, it has also gone off on a supposedly moral crusade denying the superiority of their own culture and people. They despise the very society they choose to live in.

Once it was the right who were the humourless moral puritans championing every form of censorship but now it is the left. And when it comes to attacking the very causes that they once championed in their youth, they are even more nasty about it than the right ever was.

My take in the assassination of that Tory Politician is, did he vehemently oppose Islamic immigration, or did he not? If he did not, then as far as I am concerned, he was the victim of his own good intentions.
