If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter.

For all those who fought to keep our country free, for all those who gave their lives, for all those who suffered, and suffer, terrible injury in the cause of freedom -

Thank you. You are not forgotten.



And a plague on those who would use those very freedoms to denigrate the great causes you fought for.

The irony of watching those who are able to desecrate the two-minutes' silence with alien chants and the burning of a poppy - because of your sacrifice they are free to do so.

The shame. The utter shame.

  1. It's not shame for me, it's anger. We have been gagged. We are not allowed to fully vent our anger at those who desecrate our memories. If it was up to me I'd have them roughed up and sent back to whatever shite country they came from. And if they were born here, send them anyway, and let's see how they feel in the kind of country they so obviously want to make Britain.

  2. To be honest, if I had been there I would have wished for a sniper on the roof of a neighbouring building.

    The shame is (or should be) theirs, but it's also ours for allowing things to get this far. We are rapidly approaching a situation where we must either lie back and let them take over (Sharia law etc) or watch a civil war take place. I suspect it will get a lot worse before the British decide enough is enough.

  4. For the avoidance of doubt, I feel anger too, and the shame is (or should be) theirs for abusing our hospitality and freedom so badly. Remember when older people used to say "shame on you"? Like that.

    Sorry if that wasn't clear in the original post.
