Mate, why my creed?

"...our community is obliged to fulfil its duties and be active in promoting the good for all and stop any harm which it can clearly see approaching" (Mass mail sent out by an organisation cajoling a certain sect of Londoners to vote for Ken Livingstone, April 2008)

Whether 'open' lobbying or engineering the minds of unaware ordinary Londoners, the upcoming Mayoral elections provokes the mind of how a Londoner should react to the ballot papers on Thursday, 1^st May.

Several organisations have requested Londoners to vote for Ken Livingstone, as Boris Johnson appears somewhat "evil" towards the major-minorities of London. The oxymoron may appear as an anomoly for the 'major-minority' people who wish to vote independently and not be told who they should vote for.

The Mayoral campaign is indeed very legit as it highlights the agenda and the views of the candidate running for the election. However, is it really necessary to have so called 'in-between organisations' - sending out mass letters to a certain sect of the society - feeding us with their subjective views? If that is the case, should we not be entitled to know fully - and not partially - the agenda of the Mayoral candidates? Dogma of the possible sophos moros was never meant to represent the creed of the many kind; London is composed of this diverse society, one which should not be undermined by stealing the rights of the voter, whoever they may wish to vote for.

Fiscal sonnet

My lord, what a fate!
Out of pocket, and a lower rate
Inflating away capital gains,
little for the consumer remains
No longer can we have self-indulging lunch,
our money has been bitten by the credit crunch
Gone are the holy days of glory,
that past has now become a frontline story
Could there be a more worse spill-over effect?
One that scars, leaves a remorseful impact
The man and his lady groans,
'oh dear, we need another loan!'
And the kingdom frowns,
don't we all wish we wore the golden crown?

For those who serve with integrity and, at some stage, realise to come to terms with life without greed getting the better.

Kichuri Rs

Round table of 'R' discussion
Seated: Reasonable, Ruswa (Shame), Revival, Reform, Revolution, Re-evaluation, Roshni (light) and Rostam

There was the Rostam (Champion of the Champions) of Global Poverty, who once said, "we can tackle problems of the world if we were more Reasonable". Suffice to question, would it be an easy job to be Reasonable within a world inconsistently fragmented by Ruswa, Revolution, Reform... (etc.)?

Re-evaluating this existing global problematic scenario, Revive past beauty for the future, bring Roshni (optimistic light) in to the present, and leave Ruswa behind as a matter of the past. Sustain a future.
