"We are descended from a people whose government was founded on liberty; our glorious forefathers of Great Britain made liberty the foundation of everything. That country is become a great, mighty, and splendid nation; not because their government is strong and energetic, but, sir, because liberty is its direct end and foundation."
~ Patrick Henry, 1787, from the Debates on the Adoption of the [US] Federal Constitution.

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane or off topic. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
And now they are a vassal state of Brussels, with a corrupted Media and Society including the judiciary [ Tommy Robinson ].
ReplyDeleteNew Zealand is on its way there, a globalist experiment in socialism and Sharia love; a democracy that has no value to the citizens.
