Otherwise he'd be called Ewar Woollar.

I appreciate that ... but the point was that it had been suggested that it was Parliament's approval of the decisions of the executive which gives them force. I was saying that surely the decisions of the executive were approved by the judiciary. Obviously Parliament can subsequently overrule those decisions by changing the law but the basic rule is Parliament makes law, executive acts on it, judiciary rule on whether the actions of the executive are lawful. I wasn't suggesting that the judiciary were the highest power, just that it was their approval of the executive's decisions which gave those decisions force.

Ok yeah, that makes more sense

The familiar film clip used frequently, this time adopted in response to the student protests, but nevertheless had a guffaw viewing it. The line; 'Reports are coming in that someone has took a huge smelly shit in your toilet' I found both hilarious and followed the fine British tradition of toilet humour alongside political satire, used to good effect. Keep giving this present bunch of political opportunists the shit they deserve, in every way possible and keep the pressure on relentlessly. Satire is just one way to use to subvert. There are other worthwhile actions to consider, perhaps being moremore effective in the outciome than passive humour. It would depend on the outcome you wish to achieve? I like the the times when subversion becomes almost part of present culture and is not deemed as a threat as it is most of the timer.These periods don't come along very often, but when they do don't miss out on taking the necessary steps to move forward creatively and progressively. Future generatiions will thsnk you for it. Avoid reactive and dumb thought out nihilism which presents itself at the same time. Little to be gained from that pathway to nowhere. I would suggest a laugh to weaken their mostly potty ideas. Other means if things turn nasty maybe worth considering? This too depends on circumstance and the forces involved.

for an old meme, its quite good..

To parody Lenin's words and as a reference to the subversive final phrase from the incisive message contained in that video clip, depending on class forces moving from passive support to practical action

'All power to the insolent oiks.'
