TELL the young people in Afghanistan and Iraq to come home. Why should our young men and women - the majority of which are from poor backgrounds - be ordered to kill other poor people?
On Saturday, lets tell Brown, Bush and the rest - NOT IN OUR NAME!

You know the score. fuedalism was replaced by capitalism and the future holds socialism and then communism... modernity.
Well, some posh nutter in the UK has suggested that school pupils should swear allegiance to a privaledged lady, who has been playing the benefits system for all its worth for years. It turns out that this old woman and her family, who everyone thought was a bit of joke and a tad old fashioned in our "democratic" world, actually has power. Click here to read about that.
Anyway, Liz, thats her name, has a few fans who like to bow and scrape to her. The odd thing is they want the rest of us to succumb to their weird fetish.
this is the Daily Mash take:
Recent uses of the Royal Prerogative in the UK and the Queen's commonwealth -
From: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Prerogative
The governments of the United Kingdom, and of Canada, have used Royal Prerogative to deny passports to citizens whom the US government had held, and released, from the American prison in the US Naval base at Guantanamo Bay. Martin Mubanga, who has joint citizenship with the United Kingdom and Zambia is one of the British citizens denied a passport. Abdurahman Khadr was denied a passport by the Canadian government.
In the UK, biometric passports, which Andrew Burnham MP recently admitted were the first step towards British national identity cards, are being legislated under Royal Prerogative. It is expected that biometric passports will introduce a database similar to the National Identity Register, including unique NIR numbers for every British citizen.
In the case of Chagos Archipelago islands, in 2000, the English High Court ruled that a local Ordinance made by the Commissioner of the British Indian Ocean Territory exiling the islanders was unlawful, a decision which was accepted by the British Foreign Secretary Robin Cook. Subsequent to this decision, the British Government attempted to achieve the same objective through use of the royal prerogative; a strategy which was also found to be unlawful by the High Court. On May 23, 2007, the Court of Appeal of England and Wales affirmed the lower court's decision.
Would be interested to know what the rest of the world think of this undemocratic system...

As a Scot, I am appalled and disgusted that Glasgow and Prestwick
airports are being used to refuel CIA planes, which
are transporting human cargo to countries where
torture is systematically practised. The Brown and
Bush governments use the evidence extracted under
torture to detain without trial.
I am equally appalled and disgusted that the Vucaj
family were abducted in the middle of the night from
their home in Drumchapel, Glasgow to Albania where their lives
are in danger and their daughter is at risk because of
the sex trade.
Nuclear power is back on the agenda, and householders
living around Hunterston nuclear power station in Ayrshire are given potassium iodate
pills in the event of radioactive leakages.
I watched in disbelief as an 82-year-old man was
physically removed from the Labour party conference
and later refused re-entry under the Prevention of
Terrorism Act. He only said "nonsense", and this more recently a Dundee woman was detained under the same act for
walking on a cycle track.
Foreign policy, defence and security, immigration and
energy decisions are made in Westminster and Washington.
As a Scot - UNSUBSCRIBE ME.

Fantastic review of Orwell's classic by SLLU supporter, Alex Miller.
Click on image below.
This article was drawn to my attention by another SLLU member.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7274377.stm
Another offensive article on the net from an organisation pretending to be neutral. It seems the BBC accept the US conjunction between “Islam and Terrorism”.
Anyone else here find this offensive?
“It was inevitable that terror groups would make greater use of the internet and the possibilities that virtual spaces offered them, said Mr Jones.
"There's more a chance of things like Jihad worlds coming online in the next five years I think," he said.”
“"I think its highly unlikely terrorists would use things like Second Life or World of Warcraft as they do not have the necessary security," said Mr Jones.”
So there you have it – Jihadists will not infiltrate SLLU… jeez. Disgraceful journalism IMHO.
