Political Ends

[Tibbs735]

Anyone here read John Seymours "retrieved from the future"? It's like a British version of J.W.Rawles "Patriots" series but with Suffolk dialect. After a crash one of the greatest threats is hand-wringing bureaucrats wielding emergency powers. Eventually a norfolk version of the Taliban sorts it all out (spoiler alert.)

Government and politics may disappear from people's lives for a time, but if the government comes over the hill in a convoy of trucks, you'd better be ready. They'll just be a well organised gang, ready to inflict Leninist style requisitioning to feed the hordes of city dwellers willing to work or fight as conscripts...

Have you notice though that they always find enough money for War

[NorthernRaider]

Money for war, foreign aid, EU membership, MPs 12% wage rises, separate booz suppliers for the Commons and Lords, Bloated pension schemes for themselves, Expenses etc but no money to feed or shelter our own homeless.
