Another imperative is ensuring control of working conditions / renumeration remains with the people in perpetuity. I suggest consideration of the present situation whereby the bloodsucking parasites appoint a tame governor general who subsequently rounds up a tribe of known politician-friendly drones. We are assured the whole process is 'independent', however if that is indeed true, how come there has never been a case of a politicians wage rise refused, or a citizen invited to a place on the tribunal ?

As I was taught several lifetimes ago, the Westminster political system involves the people electing representatives who look after the peoples interest on their behalf (government of the people, by the people, for the people). Since WE appoint THEM, they are our employees & consequently we have every right to dictate conditions & renumeration.

Once we have re-asserted our position as the employers of our servants, we are then in the position to demand the end of distasteful practices hitherto rampant in the political circus eg nepotism / lobbying / unaccountability / pandering to scumbag countries like Indonesia / being a puppet of yankeeland etc etc. The green hill suddenly looks a lot closer.

Praxi: Thomas More, and he had his head amputated quite some time back when Henry the Eighth took exception to being told he was nothing but a dirty old man.

Actually it was Thomas Mare that was the dirty old man. He never took a bath or changed his clothes. When his old clothes wore out he just put another lot on over the top. The bottom ones just rotted off. When they went to embalm him the found that he smelled so much & the lice had borrowed into his flesh making tunnels. He was buried as he was, unwashed.

Don't be hard on her. You know how easily she breaks.
Jayb,
Break easily ? No way, her hide's tougher than several of us put together. In terms of OLO she's a real Battlea.e :-)

He wouldn't have had an ensuite or even a change of clothes in his accommodation in the Tower of London. anyway he did at least have the one wife whereas Henry changed them more often than he changed his socks & probably infected every one with the pox as well.

Praxi: Tower of London.

No, You had better read the story. He was Henry's best mate & they used to argue a lot. One day Henry said, "Won't someone rid me of this accursed man." & three knights who wanted to curry favour with the King set off to Canterbury Cathedral where they found Sir Thomas Moore in kneeling prayer in his Chapel. There they killed him thinking they were doing the kings bidding. Then they got their heads chopped off for being so stupid. Know your history dear Arthur.

That would be Thomas Becket you're thinking of - and the King Henry in this case is King Henry II. Thomas More was beheaded under the rule of King Henry VIII about 350 years later. And he was imprisoned in the Tower of London prior to his execution.
