I have just listened to the “I have a dream “ speech from Martin Luther King. I urge you to listen to it without being emotionally moved. A speech that was made in the sixties and still resonates today almost 60 years later. The equality he dreamed of has still not come to pass, better yes but still not a fulfilled dream.

Yesterday there were protests up and down the country against the proposed bill limiting the ability to do so. Once again I warn you that our basic rights and freedoms are being taken away! You can be arrested and sentenced to prison for even appearing to be causing a public nuisance! If you wonder why this matters, then I feel sorry for you. You may never think of joining a protest but you never know what the future holds or how strongly you might feel about something. Imagine your disappointment when you realise you cannot demonstrate your protest against that one thing because you could be breaking the law! Let me be clear, you can be arrested for even “thinking” of protesting if it is deemed to be a public nuisance. If you think you live in a free democracy, think again!

The elitists privileged few are so out of touch with the public it is frightening. I am sure Boris is wandering around No 10 asking everyone why he has to apologise, unable to understand the furore surrounding him or that he has done anything wrong. He just does not get or why any rules he might impose should apply to him. He simply believes he is above all these things and can do whatever he likes without any need to explain or apologise. I suggest he was almost forced to do so, probably blathering about how he had not done anything wrong and why should he take the blame? Boris is the ultimate example of how privileged behaviour corrupts any sense of of right or wrong. He will never go willingly because he does not acknowledge his mistakes. We are living in a time of the ignorant privileged fools, running the asylum and unless we do something radical about it we are all going to be worse off than we are now!

Stay well
