Was it never to eat cauliflower cheese at an Wurzels open-air concert?

I'm mixed race , grandfather from Barbados and a great grandfather from the Philippines, also family from Norway and Wales,
I've Muslim a cousin ( converted about 20 years ago , I've white and black cousins, my brother is married to an Indian girl and I also have Rastafarian uncle.
Growing up in the docks I've FREINDS and neigbours of all different races and creeds
I'm blessed and lucky to have such a wonderful upbringing.
In primary school we used to sing " the ink is black the page is white together we learn to read and write".
As Bob Marley said
Until the philosophy which hold one race superior
And another
Inferior
Is finally
And permanently
Discredited
And abandoned
Everywhere is war
Me say war.
That until there no longer
First class and second class citizens of any nation
Until the colour of a man's skin
Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes
Me say war.
That until the basic human rights
Are equally guaranteed to all,
Without regard to race
This is a war.
That until that day
The dream of lasting peace,
World citizenship
Rule of international morality
Will remain in but a fleeting illusion to be pursued,
But never attained
Now everywhere is war - war.
I like the ill-educated 'right wing' jibe. Fascism lends itself perfectly to the left as much as it does the right. Corbyns ideal is a state controlled system and economy. The dictionary definition of Fascism sits as well with the left.
The left though do love the moral high ground despite invading Iraq and starting all this shit in the first place.
I stopped looking at this thread as these terrorist threads are getting very repetitive and everyone seems in a fixed and stubborn position on it. So I saw your reply Leader by chance.
I fully agree with everything you have written and wish I hadn't used the label of "right wing". (Though you would need to flesh out the Corbyn part considerably for me to get your point there). You are right to pull me up on my poor wording and my lazy labelling. I had written "far right" initially, but I didn't want to dismissively label lots posters as "far righters" (though I think there are two who I don't read), so I edited to just "right". I actually tried to edit the post and take it out but 5 minutes had elapsed.
I've been to the killing fields in Cambodia. I've seen with my own eyes that the left is certainly capable of anti-humane fascism. I consider myself in the middle politically. Though the middle looks like the left to a lot of people as politics in the West has taken a big general shift to the right in my view.
No it really isn't remotely in the same league as your comments. What part of ',bombed into their graves' is factually incorrect? I thoroughly dislike the bombing of civilians. It has happened so many times in the Middle East since 2003.
I see our current problems in the West as related to our continued involvement in bombing in the Middle East. Until we become extricated from our involvement in the Middle East we are going to face more and more of these appalling atrocities across European cities.
No it wouldn't.
139 Tories voted for the war - and the motion was carried with a majority of 263. If they had voted the other way it wouldn't have carried.

244 Labour MPs voted for the war - 174 voted against
139 Tory MPs voted for the war - 26 voted against
The last time I looked at this was for the general election before last. I think there wasn't a vote for the invasion vote from the Lib Dems. The Tories, had a bigger majority proportionally than New Labour. This is going off memory though I am sure I'm right on this.
But as I said in my post "In the UK parliament it was certainly lobbied and approved by the Tories and bLiarites". Am I wrong?
