Where to for British anti War politics?

category international | anti-war / imperialism | opinion/analysis author Tuesday January 10, 2006 22:26author by charles dickens Report this post to the editors

British anti-War politics has taken an interesting turn over the change of Year.
The leader of the largest "anti-War" party has resigned his position after being exposed as a soaked up rickety wreck alcoholic.
Meanwhile the umbrella of interests in British politics which work through the "Impeach Blair" or "Stop the War" coalition have called upon a retired general to voice their concerns, and the former extreme left candidate Gorgeous George Galloway has decided to go to Big Brother.

Doesn't it make you think?

Well, obviously if Charles Kennedy had gone on Big Brother whilst he had the chance we would have seen more than a six pack. & naturally none of us are to excited by the prospect of Galloway tending the hens, ( I confess to not having seen BB in a long time & know not if poultry are still a rite of initiation)
or sipping celebrity cocoa in his pyjamas.

I hazard the opinion that the slow and attritious talk of withdrawl from Iraq, and equally attritious and slow talk of war with Iran has - - - coupled with the election of Blair to his self confessed last term.
Ooops that clause was bundled. I wanted to slip in the Conservative youngster. The sort of man who convince a general to blog the woman's hour and Guardian.

The withdrawl from Iraq and the attack on Iran.- - - The tory - - - the general - - - the brave new Israel - - - wow. the War is history now. i can't really "say anymore".

The British "anti-War" movement has suffered from the same malaise at end, as the British "anti-Poverty" movement.

Its going cool. ITs going wet. Its going what we in indymedia (saormhain eirinn) land call BB.
