Just stuff I have read somewhere. Be it on the internet, in a magazine or even in the loo.
“Surely it is better to think beyond the small and encourage tolerance. We need to respect others and consider their needs, but that doesn't mean living bleak lives shorn of any risk or fun. Nor does it mean if someone is annoying you on the tube that you can't tolerate him or her, just for a few minutes.”
Every year in Lewes they parade an effigy of the pope through town and burn it on a bonfire. The banning of this has never been brought up (as a Catholic I avoid Lewes Nov 5th). But last year they burnt an effergy of a caravan, as a protest against travelers and all hell broke loose.
Well that's alright .. so long as the taxpayers picks up the bill for these non contributory characters in our society!
