I have come to the view that “Sir” Bob Geldof has become an even bigger media whore than he already was. His actions in public during the demonstration on the Thames recently showed him for what he is, a liberal media darling who seems to think he can do what he wants & say what he wants to the detriment of others. Well, in this heavily Censored piece I give it back to him!. I hope he hears it because I’m sick to the back teeth with him & his ilk dictating to the rest of us what we are meant to think & say & do. I will probably hold opinions that you don’t agree with, thats fine thats part of being a libertarian, free thinking human. I don’t follow the mainstream herd. I look forward to your comments.
