Wrong PM. "Wind of change" was Macmillan's slogan.

Who mentioned PM? and wind of change?
I was refering to a specific cretin. Begining with T and ending with
hatcher.

You know what, she's dead. Give it - and her - a rest please. To keep on
slagging off the dead is offensive in any case to a lot of people and it
doesn't necessarily jibe with everyone's political views on here, so
it's rude to assume all think the same. And politics shouldn't enter
into a gardening group in any case. And no, I didn't vote for her or
anyone else back then, because at the time she was in power I was unable
to vote in England.


In any case one shouldn't overestimate the importance of the individual.
If it hadn't been her, it would have been someone else, because the time
was right.
RIP, surely we're all entitled to that

The phrase that 'people who live in glass houses, shouldn't throw stones'
would seem to apply to Baz here. I am tired of his 'ever so 'umble'
attitude toward gardening and his very real mental instability. Time
to killfile him I think.

I happened to answer Baz's post but he's not the only one who's
hammered this subject to pieces. My post wasn't directed solely at him
but at all those who think this is a place to air contentious political
views. The one thing that WAS good about urg was the lack of that sort
of thing and the unifying factor of all being interested in gardening,
whatever rosettes we wear at yawn-time! ;-)

Yes, I think it is. Put the loony in your killfile.

Agreed, but there's a whole thread on here eulogising her, and that doesn't fit in with everyone's political views either.

Yes, of course you are right in what you say.
My point is off topic in this group.

Baz


Thanks, Baz.
