The world will do nothing about China and it?s domination of Hong Kong.

Reason?

1.China is the worlds most powerful country and will do what it wants.

2.the other countries don?t really care.

I'm appalled by Boris and his chums, but I do think it would be a shame to hear the negative, aggressive sound of booing after the quite uplifting and positive sounds of clapping at a time when lots of us are feeling stressed already. Might even frighten some people who don't know what its about...

The question is why boo? It seems to be a British way of showing disapproval. So what is wrong with booing, particularly if it is clear who you are booing at (a little late to show disapproval of Dylan for going electric). Not sure why there are so many po faced people on line. Cheer if you wish.


Dylan denying there is a problem, sounds familiar


Here's another clip, this time of young people showing disapproval at a former PM - as featured at the end of a documentary on protest music by the Great John Peel




Also had the pleasure of being at the Bastille Day celebrations at the French Embassy when the then Foreign Secretary got boo'd by a very exclusive audience shortly after the referendum, during his mummbly speech

    • There's quite a difference between going for a run around the footpaths and trying to sit quietly for an afternoon in a wide, grassy area and enjoying the peace & nature. The other two grassy areas in the park are used for sports, and both had barriered trackway running through them. The Parkrun had to be cancelled for at least three weeks, iirc. I'm concerned by your continued reference to "the rye" - the event is held in the park, not on the rye (common). There is a big difference, despite the organisers and council artificially amalgamating the whole area when trying to convince everyone that it's only a small area that is closed off. The railings & gates enclosing the park are a big clue...
    • So have you cancelled your contract with InPost / Yodel now? If so, that's probably caused hundreds of parcels to be stuck in limbo, as they've said to me before that they can't redirect them to a different store. I have a parcel that was refused by you twice, the last time on 5/12, and since then there's been no updates, despite me calling them 3 times. They just say it's being investigated, but if they now can't physically deliver to you then that is obviously the issue. So much for shopping for Christmas presents early, looks like I'll never get them now.
    • I thought I noticed the shop being redecorated the other day when I passed. Also the old Romeo Jones had some works going on, I think 
    • Leon came to sort out a lighting issue for us last week.  He quickly diagnosed the problem and gave clear, detailed advice about how to avoid in future.  Would highly recommend him.
