Well I certainly hope all those masked asshats with 2x4s are happy

I'm serious. The UK celebrates a caste system. If anything, the UK and India have more in common than the US and UK when it comes to who is modeled after who...I mean the US threw out the British and rejected the idea of a caste system. It was an explicit rejection of British caste ideas.

However, India officially threw away the caste system, but some of the people still embrace it. The UK still forces a caste system upon its people.

ahh yes, in the same way that whenever i visit the US i always see people running around cities shooting guns in the air and chanting "USA!". they're all fat as well so really it should be 'waddled' and not 'running'.

the real caste systems the US and the UK have are the rich and the poor mr rabid mong

You seem to be confused. The US doesn't have a caste system. The UK does have a caste system, one that involves royalty and peasants.

Now both countries do have social inequalities, but the UK's inequality is exacerbated by their adherence to a strict caste system.

Not quite, it's about making sure there are structure reforms in place so that IMF knows they're not throwing 110B into a furnace.

As far as lashing back, I don't see how setting shit on fire or throwing rocks is a solution to anything. It's a simple matter - the raises and quality of life they've enjoyed the last 10 years weren't based on reality and now the pendulum has to swing back.

What are the hooded asshats proposing? Again, I've yet to see a violent riot be a productive form of discourse.

Sinking an economy into deep recession and unemployment all the while loading it with even more debt is not "structural reform", it's a sick way of thinking and you seem to suffer badly from it. BTW, get your facts straight, the IMF only pledged 30 out of that 110 billion euro loan.

I am sorry you can't see what good it is to violently resist a rape. It shows that apart from the slightest grasp of economics you also lack dignity. What a sad person you are.

you seem to be confused goose. it's all about money

if i (working class) won the lottery (say £120 million on the euro lotto) then i (if i chose) could buy a meaningless title and ponce around sipping sherry and killing animals on horseback while yelling tally ho old chap! i wouldn't as i'm not a cretin.

you have the same "problem" of old money in your country, yours just don't have pointless and outdated titles to alongside them

anyhoo, i know you and hal have some weird kind of spat/lovers quarrel going on but the way you keep prattling on about the UK and caste systems makes it look like you miss something extremely obvious. it's all about money. 2ndly, it's about who you know (see money).

you can insult the UK all you like for all i care. i think it's a shit hole with decent people in it but ruled by out of touch retards (guess that parts the same for you lot).

anyhoo, i'll bow out of this now so you and hal can go head to head again - just don't use your dicks this time.

No, you can never be part of the royal caste, you can never be the monarch, even if you won the lottery. You can't buy yourself out of a specific caste, that's against the caste system rules that the British impose on their people.
