You don't have Google in the UK? As I have remarked elsewhere (on this very site) I'm a year older than Boris and Douglas Coupland, author of Generation X, told me to my face I was Generation X, NOT a Baby Boomer. Really?

D'you mean according to the PCBB Brigade it's not OK to call a Queen a Queen but it's OK to call someone like Jesus a Queen? Oh it's a queer world we're living in if you ask me.

Not me. And I suspect, a bunch of others too, who "failed/derailed" (i.e. chose other fields) on the way into the producing department of unlimited euphoria of technical and communications. We participated though and are drawing our own conclusions, eventually pointing at Schumpeter or alternative strands. And, no, as such an observant I don't feel entitled to condescence on the compartment of baby boomers you relate to. In fact I think we should get it together and take advantage of the diverse points of view. More diverse than your suggestion might imply and that's what I felt necessary to complement here. No, no, no.

Talking about Labour – ” . Labour is the most thuggishly sophisticated political fighting machine this country has ever seen. It may be useless in Government, but it has turned its hatred for the Conservatives into a remorseless engine of destruction.

Gordon Brown doesn’t wake each morning asking himself what more he can do for Britain. Before opening his eyes, he wonders what more he can do to skewer the Tories.

Along with Queen P and others, Labour’s driving motivation is revenge for 18 Labour years in Opposition. The Brown gang is obsessed not with uniting this country, but dividing it. If that means smearing and sneering at your opponents at every opportunity, so be it. Labour plays the man, not the ball.

Selection in schools? That’s elitist, say brass-necked Labour Ministers who send their own kids to selective schools.

Restrictions on immigration? That’s racist.

Sceptical about superstate Europe? You’re a Europhobe. The labels keep coming: sexist, homophobe, Islamaphobe or best of all: fascist.

Character assassination is the weapon of first resort, loaded with deceit and hypocrisy. Labour lies without hesitation or compunction. They lied about mass immigration and then kept it secret.

School supremo Ed Balls, facing a threat from the Far Right, was at the heart of this conspiracy. Yet today with heartbreaking gall he is asking angry constituents if they want a ban on welfare payments for new immigrants. Had a Tory made such a suggestion they would have been damned as “racist”.

Alreet, Edith love? You alreet?

You mean Harman says people are not allowed to have the title Queen any more? Never! Oh my sweet Lord. My Cyril would turn in his grave that’s his title. NO I mean he would turn in his grave with anger. He did not fight in the war for Harman to ban that title. Oh my sweet Lord. My Cyril would turn in his grave about this I’m sure love.

Elton said the sweet Lord is gay? Oh my sweet Lord oh my sweet Lord. Did he really really said that Edith love? Oh my sweet Lord. Still I’m sure Elton will get a pat on his back from some politically-correct-brainwashed-brain-dead- maniacs for saying that won’t she?

Alreet Edith? Alreet love. Keep me well informed love. Take care love.
