    'A people reflect its government' so true.

      @@wanderingwilliam5031 Hi William, no i'm the Swedish watcher. From Gothenburg. I've been in England so many times since the early 80's. My first trip was in the early 80's when it was popular for Swedish kids to go to England learning English for a bit more than 30 days. Like a summer camp with other kids and I was living with a great family which I today still visit now and then and they visit me. Their kids were my age so we had so much great time. The 80's were really the best times, going into London and watching bands like Spandau Ballet or Duran Duran. These days we just go driving around the country and still visit genuine English places far away from large cities. Cheers

      @@bertilpersson3214 Ah sorry, I struggle to keep up with names and people. Yes I can imagine what a brilliant place England and Sweden were back then. Musicians are rubbish now compared to back then. Like you say though, there is still plenty left to go and see!.

      @@wanderingwilliam5031 I agree. Please don't excuse yourself I can imagine a lot of strangers commenting. True, both our countries were very much different then, for the better. That's why I like watching your videos. It proves that people outside the concrete jungles haven't changed that much actually. The sad thing is that many have been forced to the globohomo destroy its very fabric and culture. I've always thought the future should be better and brighter when I was younger but I see it's totally the opposite. What kind of force of nature is dictating our self destruction. Sad story.

    Nice place by the sea - and much nicer than nearby Lowestoft. You're right about Zephaniah as, despite being an ex-con diversity hire - made Oxford Prof of Poetry, having several volumes of dire political poetry published and a regular BBC/mainstream media guest - he was always banging-on about being discriminated against and 'white privilege'.
    Some of the Message, but not too intrusive apart from the school, unsurprisingly. Universities/teacher training was seized by the neo-Marxists decades ago. And the left likes catching 'em young. The Ukraine message is still being pushed but fewer are falling for it. There's a strong prospect of direct NATO boots on the ground (rather than covert at present) if/when the proxy regime folds later this year, so expect a massive ramping-up of media propaganda soon.
    Loved the seaside mural and the absence of graffiti ruining it. In Kingston near me the street artists improved the town with colourful works (at their own expense as the Council doesn't even pay for the paint!) but some were scrawled on. There was one brown bloke on there but that was a deep tan. Another interesting wander, William.

      I'm a big fan of murals, especially ones with history to do with the town or area as they uplift the street. He was quite insufferable was Zephaniah, remember seeing him on BBC QT getting upset because a northerner called him "sunshine".

      @@wanderingwilliam5031 Yeah, I joined in painting one when I lived by the sea in Kent and it looked grand. Some spoilsports graffitied it of course. Then the council painted over it. A cohesive, respectful community doesn't destroy its surroundings. Those who don't belong have no qualms about spoiling beauty. Ben Z was one of the protected minority and looked for offence everywhere, whether intended or not. You'd think coming from Brum he'd know about regional names of address. I'm still called 'pet' by my Geordie relatives and I bet some lefties would take offence at that. Cheers.
