Choice Depends On The Freedom To Choose

Thanks To The Tabloid Campaigns I Have Many Death Threats And I Was Very Pleased To Get Another One The Other Day.

I Try Not To Make Political Arguments Personal. It Doesn't Help And It Switches A Lot Of People Off. The Real Questions: Will We Have Peace? Will We Have Justice? Will We Have Pensions? Will We Have Free Education? Will We Have Public Services? .... Those Are The Sort Of Things Which Interest Me. I Don't Think That Having A Go At Individuals Really Helps Get Your Point Across Apart From Anything Else.

America Is Now The Dominant Force And The Only Countervailing Force Is Europe.

We Used To Have A War Office, But Now We Have A Ministry Of Defence, Nuclear Bombs Are Now Described As Deterrents, Innocent Civilians Killed In War Are Now Described As Collateral Damage And Military Incompetence Leading To Us Bombers Killing British Soldiers Is Cosily Described As Friendly Fire. Those Who Are In Favour Of Peace Are Described As Mavericks And Troublemakers, Whereas The Real Militants Are Those Who Want The War.

The People Who Have Sacrificed Their View In Order To Get To The Top Have Very Often Left No Footprints In The Sands Of Time.
