What was the "Guilty Men's" crime? Why treachery of course. No goverment has the right to give away sovereignty to a foreign power. The only justification for government at all is that the rulers should protect the sovereignty of those they rule. Yet this has all been done by a small group of people who are so convinced that they are right that they have not bothered to ask the people for their support. The fact is that there is a breakdown between government and the people, who have to bear the brunt of the government's bad decisions.
Oh Gawd! Another party conference. Will it end with a standing ovation for Dave? I hope that Boy George does not get one. His policy has failed. We were supposed to have cuts balanced by growth to reduce the deficit. The cuts are in place but growth has vanished so we are still piling up debt at the rate of three billion pounds a week. There is no Plan B so we will get waffle about incentives to growth which will hardly make a scratch on the surface.
But we have an Indian Summer! It may be Global Warming but it can't be climate change. It was just as hot in 1820 and noticed by Keats when the hot weather "set more/ And still more later flowers for the bees/ Until they think warm days shall never cease/ For summer has o'erbrimmed their clammy cells."
