    I have always held Brian Eno in high esteem...
    ...& my esteem raises the more I know of him.

    Always admired Brian Eno. More so after this. And Jeremy Corbyn is the most honest politician I've known in my life too.

      +periurban I knew him quite well when he was guest tutoring at the Royal College. A sound guy paid a good deal of money by corporates for talking common sense.

      ***** Thank you, you're right. I don't have a track list. Over the years i've had two vinyl and one cd version of it borrowed and not returned... by women! Don't lend lassies your Brian Eno albums. I mean it!

    Well said Brian, I trust him also. I didn't vote for the first time because there was no one I was interested in, they were all the same. This will be like David and Goliath I hope, I would love to see him rub their noses in it after the terrible treatment he has had

      +Adam Wright it's true - people just bore me and I have ended up hitting middle-age with a real social-Darwinist view of mankind and trust me it isn't healthy. This is why I always shudder when that ISIS executioner "Jahadi John" is mentioned as I also could happily slice someone's head of and feel nothing. To kill without remorse, empathy or compassion = all characteristics of a psychopath.

    Brian Eno is a very talented and accomplished musician and artist. However I do not believe he knows what it is like to run and manage a business which provides for other people. If he did I dont think he would have been there.

      @braddub8145 Před 9 lety +7

      xpat73 Moot point. If you wanna talk in terms of personal wealth, he'd have far more to gain with a Blairite Labour/Tory stance. If anything, he's essentially putting up a larger share of cash for those who can't afford to NOT be Socialist.

    • @LucyOLastic
      @LucyOLastic Před 8 lety +2

      +Pwecko Eno was always more than about music. It's about time there were politics which matched his visionary music and our dreams. I don't see any inspiration coming from the Government, or any of Corbyn's opponents. Why are we headed up by such people? I mean, Iain Duncan Smith...really....Look at the state of politics in this country and the kind of people who are in charge. Why are they there?

    • @Pwecko
      @Pwecko Před 8 lety

      +PrizewinnersPaws Let me guess, you want someone with charisma to inspire you to greatness. Charisma is one of the most common traits among psychopaths. hbr.org/2012/11/the-dark-side-of-charisma We would do well not to let charismatic people rule over us. Just look at the most charismatic, inspirational leaders - Hitler, Stalin, Tony Blair - they were all psychopaths whose leadership was highly destructive. If we are to have leaders at all, they should be boring.

    • @luciatilyard2827
      @luciatilyard2827 Před 8 lety +1

      +Pwecko How about leaders who aren't egotists, care about others, have integrity, and want the best for the most? Decent people exist, most don't go in for politics, but if and when they do, elect them! Suspect Corbyn might well be the case in question.

    • @Pwecko
      @Pwecko Před 8 lety

      +Lucia Tilyard All leaders are egotists. It's impossible to climb the greasy pole without being an egotist. Only an egotist could put up with all the nastiness associated with getting to the top. There may be a few people in politics who care for others, have integrity and want the best for the most, but if their method of helping some people is to steal from other people and to use force to get what they want, then they are self-evidently bad people. Corbyn is a bad person, just like all other socialists, just like all other politicians. The UK is a socialist country, even under the Tories. It is run by thieves, who take people's money to enrich themselves. They are clever, though. They give enough to the poor to buy their support and to ensure that they don't rebel. When it comes to election time, you vote for the party that promises you most, not thinking that whoever gets into power will still steal from you around 50% of your income. They will still stop you from doing certain things and force you to do certain other things. They will still take the country to war for no good reason. They will still conspire against you to inflate the currency and take your wealth from you that way. It doesn't matter who wins the election, the government still gets in.
      If you think that Jeremy Corbyn or anyone else is going to lead this country out of the mire that it's in, then, I'm sorry but you are deluded.
