I expect better than rhetoric. Its all so comfortable in the Oxford Union if you are status quo.

The young black woman had cogent points, the young American man, clearly neo Marxist had solid reliable points, personally not my cup of tea.

But Kisin sounded lazy and unwilling. No one ever said it would be easy. The future doesn't need him.

I have russian/ ukrainian friends - quite how they're coping is beyond me.

Left of centre but not far eh...

I think I probably might but let's not get personal.

Anne Widdecombe, this thread got me intetested in this strange corner of youtube so to 'no platform' debate in Oxford Union - where it is NOT just a debate; a jolly larff winning/ losing witty clever sophisticated whatever and nothing else matters.

Ms W spoke for true Liberal democracy. I loved what she said and I'm stunned - long term Tory but she could come to dinner round here at Bedford Towers any day.

And then I found Piers Morgan and Kisin - what a pair of elitist wankers. I'm astonished by the pair of what they think.

There so many problems in the world ( always were) but Tory reaction uses the same dark devious and nasty arguments to maintain their control over the poor.

And then I found on fox news! a geezer obviously wearing a wig and looking serious ( or just an ordinary guy (putz) ) and they should just get a room, talking about children and Woke.

Now interestingly, In my travels and where I've lived I've found two countries where they really value their children.... Russia and Israel. Interesting?

Or is he just a tool taken up by the Right? The next video controlled by serious looking para military type...you can tell the video is edited...but whoa he's still allowed to sound daring and yet it all boils down to being just an ordinary guy.

What's he really actually doing?

The world these days seems to be full of these people. Whining snowflakes, always complaining about how the world isn't right for them and creating designated groups who they can blame for causing it. Sometimes you've just got to watch a Jeff beck video.

As a woodworker, I found this really interesting. I have always been taught to put oily rags in an airtight jar with a screwed down lid - never leave oil finish rags in your workshop/house...
