Manchester attack: the West must rise again
by Anorak | 23rd, May 2017
To bomb a concert packed with young families is an act of savage cowardice. Anyone sane with an ounce of moral fibre feels for Manchester. But this is no time for shoegazing. When people – how many children? – are murdered with such empty, pointless barbarism – and, boy, how they’ll look for some ideological power behind it (and find none) – a country must act. The lack of self-belief in the West fuels terror. Time to stand up for hard-won beliefs and our liberal democracy.
Children Street Party, Rosamund Street Chorlton on Medlock, V E Day (Victory in Europe, end of World War II).
It’s time to act.
