Pakistan

I have just been watching the mass protests in Islamabad, could we ever expect our citizens to take such action against our Goverment, If not why not?

Given the fact that Pakistan is an unstable Muslim nation, with it's own nuclear weapons, and is a base for Al Queda training camps. Was the west wise to invest so heavily in Pervez Musharraf, who is now in danger of being overthown by radical Muslims.

If you're grieving over the price of petrol, Dassie, you could always try moving to Nigeria - I think it's about �1 a gallon there as opposed to �1 a litre here. You don't get the nanny state or the government selling out to the Americans, but the buses are rather crowded.

No, the UK hasn't died ........yet!..............but your point does illustrate and confirm for me how the poor motorist here gets hit with tax..
