What will be the defining battle of the 21st century?

It was last Christmas. I was invited to a Christmas curry lunch and and evening Mexican meal. Well I din't want to turn it down so I went to both.

I can tell come Sunday the battle that followed consumed one toilet roll in a single session.

Well, ISTR that Blair wanted to bring in a law that would facilitate the locking up of anyone showing a preponderance for any potentially violent psychotic disorder.

Noa just think how that could be abused! Hmmm.. the possibilities are endless...

He also tried really hard to be able to lock up anyone for 90 days without trial for no reason whatsoever.

Perhaps the biggest battle of the 21st century will be the same as the biggest battle of the 20th century: against the scurge of nationalism. Hopefully it'll be less violent this time.

Labour also tried to introduce in effect a Statute of Proclamations, which would have allowed them to make up new laws on the hoof without having to bother Parliament.

It's between "Who wants to be Jihadi" and "Battle of the bulge"

At the moment it looks like the latter is going to kill off more of the population
