worth noting now that summer has arrived, tom is local to this but there is no suggestion that he threw any molotov cocktails last august.

Angst, fits so well within 'gANGSTa', that the whole world cannot turn it's eyes away.
No moral wordplay, no thrust and parry of "when I were a lad", shall create anything but column inches and lengthy outpourings from "Kathy Come Home" wannabes.
Not while churchmen 'alter' boys and honourable gentlefolk accept as true that being above suspicion equates to being beyond the reach of the law.
The plain fact is that life's struggle is worthwhile only while that struggle is shared. Only when no quarter of society acts as if they (and they alone) have "cracked-it", and that such a status has been achieved through dint of their own hard work alone, is a society worthy of the name.
Who was it that stated outright that, "There is no such thing as society."?
Ignorance is bliss, bliss is happiness, I am happy...to draw your attention to the possible connectivity in the foregoing.

So you are a closet Thatcherite, Tom.
