Quote:GD – “But are these acts simply a way to placate the IOS somewhat, to feed them a placebo and settle the angst, done in a smoke and mirrors type of way while not really making the required big changes at all?"
Agree mate, truly do. We are pre conditioned to think like this and; in all probability, history will repeat, particularly with the ‘three stooges’ on stage and throwing sweeties at the assembled crowd. The culture of resistance, corporate arrogance and unfettered power all wrapped in the cloak of ‘mystique’ make a formidable enemy; one with the power, the money and the blessing of government.
I would love to see Fawcett up there, Junior Minister – hells bells, I could even write some positive stuff for a change; what a lovely big drum to bang that would be.
Nah, I was just speculating on Truss and change; more a whimsy than constructive argument. We’ve been fooled before and I lost my rose tinted glasses many, many moons ago.
See you on the river later; still lots to do. Pumpkin soup for dinner OK with you?
