BNP blogs ?<BR/><BR/>I do wish people would stop lumping the perfectly respectable position of UKIP with a collection of semi bestial thugs.At the Bruges Group meeting last night a marvellous lecture was given on the historical and contemporary resonance of the `English Speaking World`.Many speakers drew detailed attention to the threat we face to our legal system as has Simon Heffer today . I see nothing wrong with this whatsoever and in fact I see a great deal right.It is also a reasonable position to hold whithin the Conservative Party seeking to influence it from whithin<BR/><BR/>This is entirely different matter to the BNP and , god help us , Sinn Fein.The collection I refer to as the `failed experiments `who are BNP sympathisers ,at least, do not qualify for such serious consideration . The type and form of their input is in effect like a well known IRA protest and nothing good comes form any interaction with them .<BR/><BR/>I invite any contributor to agree with me that civilisation is a prerequisite to any meaningful debate and evolution would be a good begginning. Free speech is a myth and a prison for thought without clear boundaries.<BR/><BR/>That boundary should be drawn between UKIP and the other organisations you mention. I personally feel that to do otherwise is not acceptable for a Conservative Party affiliated forum . I have requested better attention to editing on this basis and I hope someone is listeningAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6214838.post-1158747119943538832006-09-20T11:11:00.000+01:002006-09-20T11:11:00.000+01:00You might be splitting the political cake rather f...You might be splitting the political cake rather finely.

Blanket coverage in the Sun , however , shows that climate change and allied global issues has reached popular culture as do endless surveys .David Cameron is often ,quite rightly, accused of being guided by focus groups and on this matter their advise has obviously been correct .<BR/> `Global` action, runs into problems with sovereignty and the economic betterment denied to developing countries , it is not simple and scarcely a party division . An inconvenient subject therefore about which to start a fight or bellow obscenities. There is a `caste` of contributor, to this forum to whom these difficulties will be insurmountable . I can only hope that one or two will pop in under the misapprehension that Green is new race upon whom they can vent their spleen. If so, can I direct you , my new friends, to postings following the recent Papal controversy .<BR/>There you will find a full discussion of the many inadequacies of thought feeling and expression your contributions containAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6214838.post-1158739694296696462006-09-20T09:08:00.000+01:002006-09-20T09:08:00.000+01:00Will I be able to recycle it?Will I be able to recycle it?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6214838.post-1158736894899217752006-09-20T08:21:00.000+01:002006-09-20T08:21:00.000+01:00A fascinating thought that; one hundred Green Blog...A fascinating thought that; one hundred Green Blogs.
