So two points that I have now failed to make over there.<br /><br />1) Kettle's piece up saying Cameron 'passed the test' of the final debate went up at 22.07 BST. The people reading the print version tomorrow won't see that, and therefore might be fondly imagining that it was written after the debate, with careful consideration, rather than him having made his mind up in advance. That stinks...<br /><br />2) Chap from Plaid on R4 just said that "the London-based parties aren't dealing with the big issues, they're just talking about the fridges". Made i laugh.<br /><br />R4 apparently asked the BNP if they wanted to come on and join the 'smaller parties' post-mortem they're having - they said no. Bless. Maybe Griffin's tired after dodging marmite all afternoon.PhilippaBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09091980183380957529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141707904735688626.post-76007137832182685692010-04-29T21:21:34.445+01:002010-04-29T21:21:34.445+01:00Dot - re animals and mirrors, I used to have a mir...Dot - re animals and mirrors, I used to have a mirror in the hallway that reached almost to the ground.<br /><br />One night I was awakened by the most god awful catawalling from my cat!

Turns out the one with th webcam had a tiny difference in the name, a few different digits at the end. Oh well, I already have a webcam.<br /><br />Duke, and others, re the 'let the plebs eat junk food' article. Where I live it is very apparent of the poor socio economic conditions, plenty of icelands, lidls, bulging track suits, heaps of dogshit on the pavement, cheap take aways everywhere, drug addicts, alcoholics, dive bars everywhere as well. I have not seen so many smokers in my life. It is no coincidence, that I am just 15 minutes walk away from Glasgow Calton, the place with the lowest life expectancy in Britain.<br />(as an aside, I was shocked to see headscarve weating and even fully veiled Muslims smoking. In our society we see tobacco as being evil, and alcohol not so much so, so it was a bit of a surprise to see a devout muslim having no problem smoking.)<br /><br />I disagree with the libertarian path. What is needed are social conservative values (not Tory), rather a sense of community, duty to society and to oneself. In this country we do not have a proper European style conservative movement. I am liberal and even left wing on some issues, but on many social aspects I feel quite conservative. High tax to fund social welfare though.<br /><br />Time to watch David Dimblebiy. I know wherte he lives. He lives in a rural village in East Sussex just outside Eastbournes, on the fothills of the South Downs. I often used to go walking through that village.
