Would the UK ever "revolt"

[nijinsky's fetlocks]

I'm your little strawberry now? christ, I fear another session under the teatowel under duress coming on at this rate...

just as worryingly, what does that make Bob?

Oh. He's still a lesbian.

STILL!!
I thought he had moved on to gay dwarfs now

No,that's me.
As long as they dress up as jockeys and wank into my sleeping mouth.
Darts playing dwarfs need not apply.
Mainly because they can't reach the fucking board to retrieve their arrows.

why would people be allowed to own anything? surely everyone should be equal?

Its not how the human race has worked from the very start. Why try to make us into something we are not

It throws up so many supplementary questions my mind is starting to hurt.

So when someone dies what happens to their house? I assume their widow/widower is thrown out of their home if it is in the other persons name. And the kids as well.

What then happens to the house? Who gets it? Who decides?

I'm not entirely sure he's thought this one through. Sorry nashark it's an awful idea that won't work, and as BB '85 has said is at odds with human nature.

Well, what happens now if a widow can't pay the rent?

In fact, GDM, let me keep with the spirit of your scenario, but altering the question slightly:

Should the widower who has hardly done a day's work in her life live in a better house than a woman who has been working long hours for the majority of her life, looking after sick child amputees?

GDM what he is talking about is Karl Marx type socialistic communism. It has never worked and wont ever work because Marx never factored in human beings to his thinking

Trust me - what nashark envisages is absolutely nothing like 'Karl Marx type socialistic communism'.
Whatever that is.
It could possibly argued to be vaguely state collectivist,but that is where any comparison ends.
Maybe he meant Groucho Marx?
Is he still stipulating 'no queers',or has that sanction now been lifted?
Because I feel that measure will only serve to alienate the pink vote.

It's like those ultra-patriotic Republican get-togethers where everything they don't understand is labelled Communist.

Re: Would the UK ever

Thats why they have guns, armies, tanks, police etc people have revolted throughout history and crushed. If it ever happened the same would happen. Governments are well aware of this all you have to do is look at other countries using their armies against their own people.

Modern Government, as we know it here, was formed from Civil War.
The Monarch was all powerful until that point.
Countries can change very quickly.

Yes but control has again been lost "the people" do not control the "senate" the "senate" controls the people and the armies and the money. Multinational companies, the rich elite, the monarchy, the blue bloods all with more power than the billions of us.

The only reasons revolts in other parts of the world have been recently successful is because of backing from us and the Americans with arms, cash and troops. We have none of this and where would we get it if we decided to revolt? Do you the posh boys will give up The City without a fight to unarmed people? We have very little power so revolt would be suicidal.

It seems to be the general consensus on here that revolution isn't really needed or wanted in this country considering our quality of life in comparison to the countries who have actually overthrown their regimes recently. Plus the fact that we can vote out any government we don't like within a few years each term. What do you reckon we should be rising up against?

Have you forgotten what you made up.... sorry, told us, you worked as?

At a merchant bank in Canary Wharf.

Elections as a whole are a grand illusion as you can only really vote so one of a few presented candidates what if none of them fit your requirements? Then to become one of those candidates who wants to taken seriously you need backing, money, advertisements step in the Multi-nationals and big businesses. Also nothing endorses a candidate more than royal approval or a church connection this is the reason why most of the rulers in this country and America are usually upper middle class or above. All went to the same schools, same unis, its pretty much a clique thing. Those allowed to enter are usually carefully selected see Bill Clinton and his scholarships, same with Obama and Blair. I dont see GSC or didactic become prime minister soon for these reasons.

The economy is doing very badly we are no longer growing at an adequate rate.

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepag...-African-economies-are-outpacing-the-UKs.html

Ghana's output, or GDP, is expected to rise by nine per cent in 2012 — almost rivalling that of China.

Zambia, whose footballers won the Africa Cup of Nations last month, is storming the economic league too.

In all, seven of the world's top ten fastest growing economies between now and 2015 will come from Africa.


Lybia had a very high standard of life, free education and health care and other things that are ignored when people choose to give reasons for the revolt there.

People are disgruntled there is Monarchy that serves no purpose to most, religous and social tension, job insecurity and losses. More people are committing suicide or becoming addicted to drugs as a result so people are very unhappy. But revolt is suicide we would never win we just have to trudge on. :)

^^^^^
You think that (growth rates) proves anything?

Put it this way.

If I have £1,000,000 and my capital grows at 2%

Am I better off than someone with £50,000 with growth at 9%?

I also cannot believe you think you can compare Libya's standard of living with that of the UK's. Actually, I can, you are clueless.

Also where are you figures on suicides and drug addiction? Or are you making them up as usual as you always fucking do, part of the reason that you are considered a joke on the forum?

Those south east asian people will be Australians, mate. Unless we have started to bring them over on temporary work visa's.[/quote]What I was getting at is that,when you are of a smaller stature and are dealing with a bigger assailant,what would you do,reach for a weapon?.
Where'as if you are round about the same height and build it means it's not your first reaction,I know they are trained in different scenarios but it's probably one of the jobs where every day is different.
I was in a boozer and a brawl broke out and first response was two women,and the back up included a South East Aisan.They were well out of their depth and the pub's customers had to weigh in as well,if they'd sent a couple of meatheads it could have stopped it escalating,I was in no way implying they weren't Aussies,but physically they struggle to match European and Islander blokes.
