Alphabet
The title refers to the LGBTIQ+++ running out of letters for them now.
Thye are the up date version of those we knew at sea, but unlike them this lot want, no demand, special treatment.
Not sure how things are now in UK with them but here it is in our face all day every day.
We get senior members of gov, Police and other main line departments leading the regular marches which appear to happen just about every week end here in Melbourne. The marchers all demanding special treatment to the extent one wonders if they ae on some form of recruitment drive.
Only hope that with the cooler weather coming they may hibernate for the winter.

Re: Alphabet
Every town hall has the rainbow flag flying, even painted on the ground outside the Town halls, normal people are disappearing fast behind all this,' somewhere over the rainbow' now has a different meaning I fear.

Think most of us would need a pacemaker fitted before tackling that?

Re: Alphabet
Woke is at it again.
The community health center where I volunteer has told all volunteers there will be a compulsory meeting to explain about the LGBTIQ group and how to understand them.
I told the organiser to go 'whistle dixie; if she thought I would attend.
I then explained my experiences with this group while at sea.
The look on her face...........priceless
