I have been frequenting the HYS board at the BBC over the last few days and i am shocked by the staggering ignorance of many of the posters. I could understand if i had stumbled upon the letters page of The Daily Mail or some other out of touch tabloid. But no.
Even on the message board at the castle people are blaming immigrants on the woes of blighty, squatters for being alive, George Bush on not being dead etc..
When Bush / Blair decided to launch their crusade against Iraq there was alot of pro war sentiment on the forum, now its all "we shouldnt have gone to war". Well, too bloody late im afraid. I for one was always against this course of action and spoke up against it only to be chastened by what I thought were intelligent people.
Hopefully HYS does not represent society, hopefully it is people baiting others for fun, but if we take what they are saying seriously then boy i will be on the first boat out of here...
On another note Rolls Royce are scoring with the Chinese and losing face with various airlines. (My little flurry on their shares may have paid off)
And as for David "we really want your trade and will only mention HR as a token measure" Cameron's little jaunt to China, well it just goes to show who's really in charge of the world now.
