the times they have a changed..
The soil that has created the mother of all parliaments, seems to be fertile ground for the 21st Century form of dissent the choice of a-symmetrical enemy within. Cosmopolitan democratic societies, with the contradictions of open borders freedom of movement seem to be under threat. It seems that just when we could claim that globalisation was working, the early part of 21st Century will be remembered as a time when power could no longer determine security. Open democracies, appear to have major cracks in the paintwork, they are not responsive enough it seems.
