What Keef said.


"Don't you think the world would be a much fluffier place if everyone loved each other more, and there weren't so many naughty irresponsible environment-destroying mega corporations"?


"Do you think that people who are a bit different from you ought to be hanged?"


Of course I'm exaggerating to make a point.


I always thought I was a bit blue-tinged-with-red (like Marmora Man) - an elegant lavendar shade in fact. Turns out I'm more magenta...

Meeting you lot in that liberal/left quarter I'm down at

Economic Left/Right: -8.25

Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.05


Not made up about the minus orientation of said quarter. Consider my answers to be full of human spirit and positivity and i'm lolling around in negative space. Humph!

I always thought it was an interesting paradox that you can be in favour of state intervention when it comes to matters of the economy but get the hell out my life on social matters!


It's where I find myself comfortably but the conflict bothers me. If you trust the government to run your economy, i.e. state owned industries, healthy welfare state, NHS etc etc why do we not trust them to govern our lives? I wouldn't let a government tell me what to eat or drink but would trust them to run a multi-billion dollar healthcare system. :-S

Although a relative newcomer to the forum I am also coming out close to Ghandi.


I notice the survey asked if you think same-sex couples in stable, loving relationships should be allowed to ADOPT. Hold the front page - plenty of them are actually getting married and (with a little help) having their own children.

    • It wasn't an antique and bric-a-bac shop but an antique market with a number of different traders, the cafe supported all the dealers in bringing in custom, and was good enough to generate trade for them. It was Rodney Franklin's and his partners enterprise, he previously had an antique shop in Queenstown Road in Battersea. His late wife ran the cafe (she was a very fine actress, it was a 'resting' job).  It was on the corner of a junction on the left as you head towards Camberwell. And almost opposite, if memory serves at all, an MFI style furniture outlet. 
    • i used to go there in the late 80's and '90s (?) the food was served cafeteria style and there was limited choice, but what there was alays tasted amazing!  The garden was an absolute paradise, you could sit in it to lunch in the summer!  i've tried to locate its site but Walworth Road has changed so much since then - does anyone remember the house number?
    • This is very true. For some people, not even just the elderly, their pet/s may be their most important companion. 
    • Be thankful for the NHS. This is the price to treat a dog or cat. Imagine what it might be to treat a human being with cancer
