It sometimes feels like hope is evaporating before our very eyes, but we have strong connections to good men and women round the world, people of intelligence, insight and integrity, and we stand together, defending the weak to our very last breath...<br /><br />Let's hope it's not too long before some progress is made in some of those communities, because everyone deserves to be free, to love who they wish, to believe in whatever they wish, to live a good and fulfilling life... Peace will not come before many more tears I fear... but soon... soon we will start to see change, I am confident... xxbien soeurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05048425862322151465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7281515681975139224.post-30277112684662994612014-04-11T12:42:55.676+01:002014-04-11T12:42:55.676+01:00I had a rewrite/rethink. Piece to camera Julie-Ann...I had a rewrite/rethink. Piece to camera Julie-Ann ??<br /><br />Time gentlemen, please. (TITLE)<br />Time is a-changing indeed… but are they really? At all, never mind what we all might discuss as to “How much is enough”? (tune in background, HUBBUB OF DISCUSSION…) <br />change is good for a society. <br /><br />In these situations I refer for help to my illustrious mentor George Orwell and ask him: “What would you think of doing here, Eric”? I wait patiently for his reply. It always comes.<br /><br />Just because things have been so, is no reason to say it must stay so. We’d still have slavery if that was our way. Look how things have adapted, attitudes to topical issues where mass mood has changed, even reversed as with same-sex relationships, almost overnight for us and our human race: Slow to change but it must come. <br /><br />What “always used to be” as a guide to the future is wrong and we must achieve this soon as the world is heading for total destruction if we continue as we are.<br /><br />One example leads into another. The unfairness of a few having vast wealth has to change in some radical way. We know how the world operates. You got money you got influence. Why should this continue to be so. It’s unfair, it’s plain wrong. Let’s bring ethics back into politics.<br /> SHARE OUR WEALTH, SHARE THE WORLD.<br />Nick Weechhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09440523646411242375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7281515681975139224.post-64861522860802320152014-04-11T08:29:57.073+01:002014-04-11T08:29:57.073+01:00HOW MUCH CHANGE ARE WE ALLOWED TO ASK FOR?
We are ...HOW MUCH CHANGE ARE WE ALLOWED TO ASK FOR?<br />We are many but the opposition is powerful & devious, crafty with all control safely sewn up and discreetly tucked away under veneers of superficial gloss, which divert attention away...<br />As my mentor George Orwell said somewhere, just because something is so doesn’t mean it should remain so: We’d still have serfs and slavery were that the case, burning witches…<br />Maybe we still have something like that in 2014!<br />Say our society was being undermined by a few like-minded people with too much wealth and the access to unlimited power to change the lives of anyone who doesn’t dine at the Top Tables of “Our Society”. If so how could it be changed? Are these "Power Possessors" simply going to let go and give up what 'They' see as their inalienable right to rule and decide things? <br />How can it be done- how might the strength of this group of like-minded people be used against its overweening control, loosen its grip on unwarranted privilege and power to decide?<br /><br />The simple unfairness of a few having vast wealth and the influence that goes with it has to change in radical ways. We know how the world operates: You got money you got influence. <br />Why should this continue so forever? It’s unfair, its wrong. <br />Simple.<br />Vast wealth was never obtained by fair means. Share it back with those who were exploited in the past. <br />They are still exploited NOW. It should come to an end.<br />The world as Desmond Tutu reminds us is at a crisis point. We must get out of our apathy thinking that 'We' can do nothing to change what's what. <br />I'd ask George for help but it's up to us now. Time's running out every minute...<br />Nick Weechhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09440523646411242375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7281515681975139224.post-66913452168873722162014-04-08T18:48:01.782+01:002014-04-08T18:48:01.782+01:00Dear Bien Souer I go back almost to the Beat Gen. ...Dear Bien Souer I go back almost to the Beat Gen. but not quite. Blessing and a curse as one has hopes of general equality for ALL not just small groups in totemistic way having been achieved by now and not yet old enough to have seen error of youthful idealism overshadowed by the various eveil forces all arrayed against it. From Our Dave & Gideons Way downwards...<br />I have had an idea from my local focus group which I'd like to float by you in email possibly.<br />Regards<br />@Nikel99Nick Weechhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09440523646411242375noreply@blogger.com
