Ignoring facts which disagree with your political or religious agenda
This is not the world as I would have expected it to be in 2017, somethings gone very wrong don’t you think?
How did we get here?
One reason is that ignorance breeds fear.
Odd at a time when for many people more information is available at your fingertips then ever before, people seem less well informed then ever.

It seems to be mostly bad news everywhere at the moment one way and another. Strange days indeed. This LOTR quote seems appropriate somehow.
“The world is changed. I taste it in the water. I feel it in the earth. I smell it in the air . Much that once was is lost; for none now live who remember it.”
If you were wondering why the Tories have quietly dropped their dodgy ‘Bill of Rights’, it’s because they don’t need it any more – they can achieve the same aims, with far less fuss, in their so-called ‘Repeal Bill’.
The Bill will be the most dishonest piece of legislation to go through Parliament in decades – starting with its title. It will repeal nothing. The stated aim is to enshrine European laws that the UK observes (without having passed them as our own) into UK law, to ensure a smoother transition when Brexit happens.
