    We don't need a revolution. We'd possibly end up with even bigger crooks in charge if we did.

    We need a truth and reconciliation commission. They had one of these to wind up apartheid-era South Africa. Basically the apartheid regime was such a gigantic criminal enterprise that they would have had to send tens of thousands of politicians and police and so on to prison.

    So they held televised hearings where they admitted their guilt and what they'd done. They all had amnesty provided they all told the truth.

    We need to do that here. Get all former government ministers in to say yeah, I gave billions in contracts to XYZ corp. and got a seat on the board for twenty years in return. I'll give the money back and just live off my pension. And XYZ get fined and have to return the amount of money they robbed from the state. Hedge funds and their dodgy PFI deals all have to hand the goodies back and so on and so on.

    A nice understated British revolution.

    Russel Brand. His heart is in the right place but he's not very good at doing what he's trying to do. He should have done a lot of reading and talking to knowledgeable people before he started doing what he's doing.

    That is a cracking idea. You should stand in the next general election!
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Russell Brand is a jackass!



    He's a cunt and someone should smash his face in with a brick


    "I'm not here to talk about my rent mate"
