"England is perhaps the only great country whose intellectuals are ashamed of their own nationality. In Left-wing circles it is always felt that there is something slightly disgraceful in being an Englishman and that it is a duty to snigger at every English institution" - George Orwell
 

 
"The best way to take control over a people and control them utterly is to take a little of their freedom at a time, to erode rights by a thousand tiny and almost imperceptible reductions. In this way the people will not see those rights and freedoms being removed until past the point at which these changes cannot be reversed" - Adolf Hitler
 

 
"When government doesn't agree with the people,
it's time to change the people"
- Bertolt Brecht
 

 
"The trouble with socialism, thought Joan, was either that it told you to do what you were going to do anyway, and therefore made you not want to do it, or else it took things out of your hands and did them worse than you would have done but at far greater expense" - Louis de Bernières in "Notwithstanding"
 

 
"If I were a gambler, I would take even money that England will not exist in the year 2000" - environmental scientist Paul Ehrlich
 

 
"The thought that life could be better is woven indelibly into our hearts and our brains" - Paul Simon

We'd like to draw your attention to this link. Do take the time to watch it. Our all-knowing government may have wanted every British schoolchild to see Al Gore's lying propaganda film "An Inconvenient Truth", but THIS is what our kids ought to be watching!
