An interesting article with alarming resemblance to the current situation.

The current stranglehold on the English people goes deeper than it did in ‘the Romans’ case, I fear. In this case, British people are arrested and pilloried for pointing out the incompatibility of a civilised culture with ‘the Romans’ by a system desperate to not offend ‘the Romans’.

That being said, a modern day Boudica would be a welcome return to Great British form. I pray for our countries sake that one arises.

I read this post, like so many others, and shake my head in disbelief. Yet ordinary people, members of my own family, the majority, still refuse to judge, probably never will.

This reminded of a post on the philosophy of Liberalism that dominates us, succinctly described as: "Equality and non-discrimination as the ruling principles of society", by the late American Lawrence Auster's blog archives.

Geez, from 2008, but worth a read, most relevant especially his insightful, erudite long definition of Liberalism.

This post is a response to a complaint about "political correctness" in Britain.

Thanks
