Common sense and logic tells you it may be best to keep the head down as the cronies that run political and media bodies are a cynical lot I.e they like their 'own' around them.

Nobody speaking out because it would be professional suicide to do so. Or the professional suicide because they spoke out. People are speaking out in their thousands against Repeal.

I think it might be true in places where the sentiment is overwhelmingly Yes. But that would apply also to Yes people in areas where the sentiment is overwhelmingly No. The anonymous pressure of the group is most likely at play wherever we go. <br /><br />My AMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00559413440743290550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4807238897188927967.post-90386352888879652532018-05-21T20:22:47.020+01:002018-05-21T20:22:47.020+01:00well said wolfe, and the really scary thing is som...well said wolfe, and the really scary thing is someone actually pays her!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4807238897188927967.post-16525631154830863012018-05-21T15:06:03.527+01:002018-05-21T15:06:03.527+01:00Grouch, I would've probably been selfishly che...Grouch, I would've probably been selfishly cheering on this 'hoe' twenty years ago I.e more fool her if she thinks it's empowering women.

This anti-democratic rage typifies the No campaign which has so much wealth that it is printing 10 No posters to every Yes poster.
