Pointless

A woman has been approaching customers in my local this evening, asking for signatures on a petition to 'save the pub'. I declined to sign, not because I'm anything other than totally gutted at its impending demise, but because it would achieve nothing. The place has already been sold (to Nandos), so there's nothing that will prevent the closure, even if the whole population of the area protested. Anyone who thinks otherwise fundamentally misunderstands the nature of 21st century capitalism. People, and their wants and needs, don't matter at all. Money, and its concentration in the hands of the '1%', is the only significant factor. Until the sheeple realise this, nothing will ever change.

Love & best wishes to all
