LOL someone has an overinflated view of the relevance of chart sales to the UK public, let alone the world at large.

yep, most folks would be unaware or at the very most be utterly indifferent

Both perfectly fair comments. However, the rest of the quote was:

We wanted to try and reach the people who might be more into watching X-Factor than listening to politics.

Having been at the demonstration on Saturday, I was aware that there were a fair number of young people present. They responded with much more enthusiasm to the various musicians than to Galloway, Livingstone, Corbyn, etc. Incidentally, probably the most popular speaker was Brian Haw (of Parliament Square fame). Tony Benn was good as usual, as was the Mayor of Hiroshima.

It is these people, School and Uni students, who need to be inspired to become interested in the Anti-War movement if any change is to come about - the old fogies with their mortgages and Mondeos just get in the way of change - it was always thus

What you REALLY need is more students, following their successful protests against Student Loans they can only do wonders for the anti-war movement.

That's an awfully condescending comment to mortgaged Mondeo owners.

Hey I resemble that remark, one of my cars is a mondeo. But then the only change I get in the way of is the leftie folly so thats allright then

There was a Stop the War demo in London last week? :confused:

Gutted I missed it, it sounds like a right rave, why does no-one on here mention these things beforehand

You mean you didn't realise its effects?

Oh, all right then:

I hadn't originally planned to use the word "fogies" either . . .

All we need is someone with a big "shut up nobody cares" stick for all these demonstrations :/

Stolly · 27 Feb 2007 at 22:20

An end to this sort of thing !

I demand that everyone is lovely to everyone !

I'm sure you would be able to oblige - no long words in your proposed slogan

No mention there of Terrorism?

There you go again . . . I demand, I demand, Me, Me, Me.

Did nobody ever teach you to ask nicely? You sound a right little fascist.

Perhaps if you could sing, or in fact, had any notable talent at all, even you could get your message of lust for killing across to a wider public

Get the UN to pass a resolution that i can ignore, perhaps a stern letter ?

Both incredibly helpful suggestions, many thanks for your support.

However, since we all know that everyone ignores the UN, I still think that it would make more sense to buy the download only Ugly Rumours single

Tony Bliar has reformed his band "Ugly Rumours" and released a new record.
