CiF, an anonymous writer discusses arranged marriages, and the exploitation within.

Current Vision thinks unity is over-rated…that’s being chummy, not the blogger.

Heh. Bristol Blogger: “come for the posts, stay for the comments.”

I find that his posts are a mixed bag, but the people in his comments always tend to really nail the point home. Lots of facts and figures in this one that really go against the credibility of this decision. Bristol City Council are so desperate to push this scheme through to get hold of the funding it seems as though they’re willing to step on anyone to make it happen.

Politcal betting is crap written by dicks like morus.


Reactions: Twitter, blogs
