...-are really beginning to hack me off!


Not only do plenty of them jaywalk, but those using legal crossings... well they aren't exactly helping traffic flow are they?


Then I find out that (who else!) Ken Livingstone wants more of us to walk everywhere - this is just soooo typical of his politically correct efforts to prevent motorists from getting where we want to, when we want to, with the minimum of fuss


Surely these pedestrians can see that if they got out of our way, we would get to where we want to quicker and then be out of their way???

I know what you mean! Bastards! Last night I went to the corner shop to pick up some milk. It should have only taken a couple of minutes as the shop is a block away from my house but:


First I had to walk 2 blocks to where my car was parked. It could have been on the pavement outside my house but apparently the pavement is ?reserved? for ?pedestrians?.


Anyway I then had to drive around the one way system to the shop but do you think I could park? Could I fuck! There is plenty of space on the road outside the shop but you can?t park their because it is something called a ?bus stop?. Believe me I?ve tried. Apparently when pedestrians aren?t j-walking or clogging up the pavements they travel around on theses ?bus? things sweating and rubbing their shoulders up against each other. It?s filthy I tell you.


So I had to drive half a mile up lordship lane before I found somewhere to park and walk for ten minutes to the shop!


I?m not even going to start on my trip home. Let?s just say it made Odysseus?s famed journey seem like an easyjet flight to Athens!

Yeah, and then they start sweating, and use up valuable water resources to re-hydrate themselves! Selfish gits!

    • Morally they should, but we don't actually vote for parties in our electoral system. We vote for a parliamentary (or council) representative. That candidates group together under party unbrellas is irrelevant. We have a 'representative' democracy, not a party political one (if that makes sense). That's where I am on things at the moment. Reform are knocking on the door of the BNP, and using wedge issues to bait emotional rage. The Greens are knocking on the door of the hard left, sweeping up the Corbynista idealists. But it's worth saying that both are only ascending because of the failures of the two main parties and the successive governments they have led. Large parts of the country have been left in economic decline for decades, while city fat cats became uber wealthy. Young people have been screwed over by student loans. Housing is 40 years of commoditisation, removing affordabilty beyond the reach of too many. Decently paid, secure jobs, seem to be a thing of the past. Which of the main parties can people turn to, to fix any of these things, when the main parties are the reason for the mess that has been allowed to evolve? Reform certainly aren't the answer to those things. The Greens may aspire to do something meaningful about some of them, but where will they find the money to pay for it? None of it's easy.
    • Yes, but the context is important and the reason.
    • That messes up Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland - democracy being based on citizenship not literacy. There's intentionally no one language that campaign materials have to be in. 
    • TBH if people don't see what is sectarian in the materials linked to above when they read about them, then I don't think me going on about it will help. They speak for themselves.  I don't know how the Greens can justify promising to be a strong voice for one particular religion. Will that pledge hold when it comes to campaigning in East Dulwich (which is majority atheist)? https://censusdata.uk/e02000836-east-dulwich/ts030-religion
