Hallo Robin
you know, one of the things that poisons socialism is nationalism
I was using _British_ only as an indicator of an influential area seemingly
dismissed in what I was responding to - which started with a reference to
USA, of course, then to its preferred evil empire and then generalised, as
if everything is definable by reference to one culture
If the Scots made most of the running, that's fine by me. I think you'll
find that the Welsh made a considerable contribution
If you want full credit for the Scottish dimension, I'll give you Blair and
his endeavours to destroy the idea, and the hypocritical murderer Lord
George Robertson
My only concern was mostly to refute the mischievous or ignorant claim that
socialism is inherently atheistic
