With all the talk of the economic downturn and how it's one rule for the politicians and one for us, ask yourself one question.


Have I really got that bad a lot?


Now I understand perfectly if you think "what business is it of his", because at the end of the day...it isn't any of my business.


We also find ourselves being done over by the authorities/establishment/Law such as "was that parking fine justified" or having planning permission turned down.


I was always told that no matter what you're going through, there's always someone going through a lot worse. The clip you're about to see is a very serious case of this. This is a very serious case of being done over by the authorities that I don't think any of you will have to suffer in your lifetime even though at some times it may feel like it in an abstract way. What happens at 0:43 is shocking (just look at the look on the poor victims face) but what happens at 1:15 is quite frankly horrific.

Don't watch it, I beseech you daizie.


It dis nae matter anyway, as my imaginary Scottish Grandfather never used to say.

Wise words Tony, it isn't for the faint hearted. Although if you really want reminding of how small your problems and inconveniences are I'd pay particular attention to the times in the clip that I've noted.


It's barbaric in it's cruelty towards an innocent.

    • I edited my post because I couldn't be sure we were talking about politicians and I couldn't be bothered to read it all back. But it was off the back of a thread discussing labour councillors, so it went without saying really and I should have left it.  What I said was 'There's something very aggressive about language like that - it's not big and it's not clever. Some of the angry energy that comes from the far left is pretty self-defeating.' (In relation to a labour councillor rather immaturely, in my view, wearing a jumper that read 'fuck the Tories').  But I don't recall saying that "violent rhetoric" is exclusively the domain of the left wing. So I do think you're taking a bit of a bit of leap here. 
    • You literally just edited your earlier reply to remove the point you made about it being “politicians”.  Then you call me pathetic.    I’m  not trying to say you approve any of the ugly right wing nonsense.  But I AM Saying your earlier post suggesting  violent rhetoric being “left wing” was one-sided and incorrect 
    • I never said that. Saying I don’t like some of the rhetoric coming from the left doesn’t mean I approve of Farage et al saying that Afghans being brought here to protect their lives and thank them for their service means there is an incalculable threat to women.    Anything to score a cheap point. It’s pretty pathetic. 
    • To be fair we are as hosed as the majority of other countries post-Covid. The problem is Labour promised way too much and leant in on the we need change and we will deliver it and it was clear to anyone with a modicum of sense that no change was going to happen quickly and actually taking the reigns may have been a massive poison- chalice. As Labour are finding to their cost - there are no easy answers.  A wealth tax seems straightforward but look how Labour have U-turned on elements of non-dom - why? Because the super rich started leaving the country in their droves and whilst we all may want them to pay more tax they already pay a big chunk already and the government saw there was a problem.
