That was my exact thoughts, what a politician he would make!!

Look him up on youtube and his web site, he´s got quiet a lot to say on there as well.

I’ve watched his video’s for a couple of years now, his youtube channel is http://www.youtube.com/user/patcondell
he’s one of only a very small handful of uploaders I subscribe to and probably the only one who I look forward to hearing asap, just love his straight forward, straight to the point style!

but….but….he has no credible solutions, he’s just another reactionary spewing out unhelpful sound bytes and he’s intentionally rabble-rousing too.
He is right that society has many many problems but you can’t just burn them out and hang em high. That will just make things a whole lot worse imo.

But but but…..
He may not have all the answers but he can certainly see the causes, if more people just spoke the truth instead of pussy-footing around then I reckon we’d have a far better society today. We can all see the problems but the successive do gooders since the 60’s have made it all but a criminal offence to speak ones mind, woe betide we offend someone by telling them
To shut up and act in a proper manner.These days people have been taught far to much- for far too long- about their human and legal rights and, not nearly enough about their social responsibilities towards other human beings.

You cannot consign generations to live like that and expect their children to have social responsibilities. Well, you might expect it…but it isn’t going to happen and nothing is surer than …it will happen and continue to happen again, no matter how many keys you throw away. There comes a point where people have nothing to lose. That is the flashpoint.
The amazing thing is that we don’t see many more events like this.
If you keep telling people what you call ‘the truth about themselves’ (which I think modern culture and media constantly does btw) then they will stop caring what you think. All revolutions happen for that very reason.
Successive governments pay lipservice to doing anything tangible about it, including Labour, when they had a chance.
We all know the problems, it’s who is going to be brave enough to solve it, fairly.
