Wear white socks!

I heard Tony Blair once praising Scotland for being part of the UK. No prizes for guessing why. According to him, Scotland plays a vital role in the UK economy as it manufactures the destroyers we need in our pathetic and wholly unjustified War in Iraq. Leaving that aside, I belive that the...

On the point of chavs, I once spotted a chav, long time ago, waiting for a bus in West London, holding what seemed like a gun in his hand....I presumed that he was a cadet at the local RAF centre. But I could have been wrong. The only reason why I sound unsure is because one is not accustomed...

Going back to the point I made earlier about the "great union" between England, Scotland Wales and Northern Ireland. Wouldn't it also be great if South Asia also follow this example and there be a reunification of India, Pakistan and Bangladesh? Perhaps slightly off topic but a unified state is...

We may not have comparable records of gun crime to the US, but it is very worrying, as highlighted in the interview with Blair on Sunday in The Politics Show, that we are currently going through a violent crime epidemic. Blair may deny it, but the drip drip of news of shootings and stabbings...

The numbers are staggering but you must remember that the pro gun lobby in Washington are very influential. So long as they have a government in power who are happy for the pro gun lobby to influence domestic politics, gun crime sprees such as this will continue sadly. We may have to wait until...

Surely the question should really be, "are you proud to be British"? The UK is not a human entity with the ability to think. It is a nation state created out of human thought and endeavour. We have historical precedents to thank for which brought about the great union between England, Scotland...

Most of them get turned away. Those who do make it, only occupy low paid menial jobs. Hardly the American dream.

If America represents "Freedom", then tell me why there are still prisoners being kept in Guantanamo awaiting trial even after FIVE YEARS have passed by? If America represents freedom, then also tell me why a disproportionate number of Young Black Americans spend their youth wasting away in...

Well its a legitimate question, after all we bombed Iraq without any real justification. So I think the opening post is really more a reflection of the difficult circumstances which are operating to create a sense of hopelessness. However, simply carpet bombing Iran, like we did in Iraq and...

Doesn't it strike you as odd that Cameron is calling for "sweeping reforms" amidst the soaring gun culture and violence in South London? This is strange because Cameron clearly misbehaved when younger by smoking a dangerous drug but now he has the audacity to tell young people what not to do...

Surely you don't want Labour to lose out to the conservatives do you?!!!

Blair thinks he can sidestep almost anything. I'm sure he'll think of something to sidestep an investigation into Iraq. He didn't even attend the House of Commons debate on Iraq.

Yes. However, my feeling is that Blair is simply biding his time until Brown takes over. Blair, as usual, is adamant about something. Well, guess what it is now? He's adamant that he serves a full ten years in office. That means he is in there until May. While the rest of the country agonises...

I wouldn't even touch Jade even if I was paid eight million!!! By the way, estimates suggests Jade is worth around that same figure. Shilpa may be beautiful, but her bank balance is nowhere near as big as Jade's!!! Which is sad really since in England even bad talent is paid handsomely but in...

Correction. Britain loved India and certain elements of Indian society such as the noble rulers and people from a highly intellectual background. Of course, who can also forget Britain's love affair with its crown jewels? Imported from India, they are still stored away safely in a musuem in...

I don't see how you can call treating people of a lower caste as being a form of racism. That's nothing to do with racism. Its a fact that, racially, India is one of the most tolerant nations in the East, contrast with other nations like Iran or Japan! The caste struggle in India is a bit like...

Oh really! How?

What on earth does the caste system in India have anything to do with Celeb Big Brother?!!! I've lived in India for ten years and I despise the government for not banning the ancient caste system. Its not called for in a modern secular state. Jade, Danielle and Joe have let themselves down very...

I've seen the film Manghal Pandey starring Aamir Khan. Its a fantastic film which completely changed my view of Aamir Khan for the second time (since Lagaan in 2001). AK is an incredible actor and I'm sure MP did some great things for India. With MP, I think the main point you are raising is...
