You remind me of another poster here in your capacity to distort and misrepresent. I won't dignify the above by correcting it. It speaks for itself and those who know it's nonsense already know, and those who don't never will.

Why bring Steeleye into this?

Not surprising. Perhaps if protesters gluing themselves to major infrastructure had chosen to attach themselves to Minister’s front doors, the public wouldn’t have been inconvenienced and the draconian laws not introduced. You reap what you sow.

 


hats off to palace, they were always gonna be louder, and hate to say it but they were impressive ALL bouncing and singing.

It's like Germany under Bismark.

Great, moving in the right direction at last.

The Right direction?

This is what happens when the right take over:-

'Israeli president warns of civil war as Netanyahu rejects judicial compromise'.

Jew-bashing now are you comrade? It's like Germany in the 1930s.

I'm not sure you'd support the reasoning behind it if you look into it. The government wants to be able to appoint and sack judges more easily - has been described as politically motivated, fair enough.
However, it is being opposed by international law bodies meaning that the armed forces are concerned they won't be protected by law when dealing with Palestinians - members of Israeli armed forces are fearing being charged by international courts for war crimes due to the changes.
It's a bit more complicated but I believe this is the main reason people aren't happy about it. The other day the Israeli reserve pilots - who could be called up in a conflict - refused to turn up for duty. Well, something like two or three out of forty showed up.https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-64866873

Something else to give miss. Really cannot help themselves. I wonder if the white privileged “Pio” realised that Britain were not the only ones with an empire?

White bad, even though they were offered slaves by blacks.
Still never let the truth get in the way of a good racist story.
Although I have heard the Barbary pirates took white westerners as slaves.
It’s not fair I want reparations so I don’t have to try to better myself!

This is simply the Mail and the Telegraph trying to wind you up, and it seems they have succeeded.

This is a big nothing. Books are not scripts. Adaptations of books for stage and and screen presentation have always been done. This is nothing new at all.

Dickens was a social reformer who, if he were writing today, would doubtless say exactly what the adaptation says. It's taking his messages and trying to make them relevant to a modern audience. The only way to judge is to watch it and decide on the whole, in its context. Which is a screen in 2023. Not paper in 1861.

If you want to read the original it's still available. Nothing has been cancelled.

 


For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally.
