CWALD don't worry too much. A story about one of my siblings and the Royal Family did a front page and 5 more in the NoTW many years ago. I was dreading facing friends and colleagues the following Monday morning. Said sibling left the country while things cooled down and it soon blew over. People have short memories unless you continue to fan the flames. Lay low, don't comment. I hear Sudan is nice this time of year!

So the press will have us believe that sex and drugs are somehow scandalous or amoral and affect a person?s ability to hold a post of office. In my experience it is completely normal for most people to indulge in at least one and preferably both at some time in their lives.


So what about this? We will consider someone a suitable candidate for office if they are at the top of their profession as say, a barrister (i.e. fighting for the highest bidder regardless of the morality involved) or in the military (i.e. killing people to order regardless of the morality involved) or as a career politician (i.e. backstabbing, taking bribes, cutting corners etc regardless of the morality involved). The activities that they engage in as part of their careers are morally reprehensible but accepted as what needs to be done. We somehow gloss over the fact that it takes a person who is a bit of a bastard to do these things. This is why, thankfully, we aren?t all at it. But do we want to be ruled by bastards?


So why, if someone?s idea of a good time is taking a peyote suppository, being strapped naked to a tomb stone covered in quince jelly and beef drippings while punters in gorilla suits arm-wrestle each other to have a go, is it an issue? I can?t see how that could give me any evidence from which to make a judgment on what type of person they are or how they feel towards their fellow man.


Actually, fuck it. If people are stupid enough to eat the shit that is fed to them by the newspapers they deserve to be ruled by bastards.

    • Hi Looking or man and van to move a sofa from Peckham to Gypsie hill, day or evening. ground floor to ground floor, parking right outside house, 07821 194023
    • I booked Connor to clean all my external windows plus two internal skylights and he did a great job. Polite, reliable, affordable and thorough, I would definitely recommend him. If you live in the Peckham, Dulwich area, give him a call 07514043068
    • We recently had a new bathroom and whole new flooring laid throughout our Victorian lower ground property. Lukas and his team ripped out the old and fitted everything with precision.   Lukas communicated with us along the process and found root causes of some other damp problems we had noticed but could never get to the bottom of! No job was too big or small. His team arrived promptly everyday and were so professional and polite, even tidying and cleaning up when they had finished.   We will definitely use this company again gon the future as we have had many experiences with shoddy builders in the past! Cant recommend them enough. Everything was completed on time AND for a reasonable price.    info@landl-build.com     https://www.houzz.co.uk/professionals/design-and-build/landl-building-and-maintenance-pfvwgb-pf~631498617
