Pm apologises for slavery..Should he of?

[Sam Slater]

Aghh, I assumed from your posts that you were a little pissed that no apology has been given yet.

Nope. Not mad. Since former Pres. Clinton danced around it in the 1990s I didn't expect one then and don't expect one now. I'd rather concentrate on something worth fighting for. Like reparations. Like solving issues in the black community and hope for mankind period.

A very sensible idea. What's the point of dwelling on a past you can do nothing about, while ignoring a future you can help shape?

Maybe Mr Blair is going for a bit of a Messiah thing. Through my deep sorrow let redemdption be found, surely he isnt arrogant enough to believe that an apology really changes anything. Now if he had himself nailed to a cross maybe.........but if he did why stop at blair might as well do the lot of them because regardless of party they are all self serving, deceitful cretins.
It is time that we stopped living in the past and apologising for things we had no part in and started living in the now and dealing with the problems that the past has given us.

For fucks sake Tony, everyone hates you anyway, you wont score points with anyone, thats the only reason the cunt is doing it, because time is running out for him, and he hasn't a clue what to do next, everything the goverment does is half arsed and never followed through, like a shit on the bog in the night when your half asleep, it's like they do a little bit here, then start on something else & think maybe people wont notice they didn't finish the 1000's of other things they promised to sort out. No apology for the war in Iraq? he's trying to make people focus on something else, to show what a "good guy" he is, when pretty soon we will have another thing in common with America, and that's our own Vietnam.
