Do you feel that freedom of speech is becoming restricted in the UK?There are some very interesting views here, but I do still believe in freedom of speech, or rather freedom to express a different perspective on a topic. Certainly there are some that appear to look for offence, when none is intended. But that said, I am sure many of us are fully aware of how certain words are no longer used as they are now deemed or more accurately recognised as terms that were used in a derogatory way. I have no issue in accepting these changes, think it's part of how we as societies evolve. What I do think has changed however, is public displays of reasoned debate or exchange of view points. Programmes such as Question Time, Newsnight, Prime Ministers Questions, all appear to show that no one listens but he who shouts louder wins. Plus the media with it's inflammatory headlines encourage the feeling that many are dissatisfied, angry and as a nation we are being manipulated, certainly the media coined the phrase ' Snowflakes" which I personally think is very offensive to our next generation, especially as so much angst would appear to be attached to "labels" Anyway, I will always ensure I do not offend, and express my views in a measured and courteous manner. That to me is being British.ViewDate:

Will you opt for the flu jab this year?Why would you not? The flu jab has been around a while now, nothing new. Have been having it for the past few years, no problems and no flu. No brainer.ViewDate:

Just joinedHi to you, hope you are also having a good evening. I am doing what I do most nights, a mediocre movie on Netflix and playing scrabble with the computer (which cheats by using made up words) just to keep the brain cells ticking over. Thanks for getting in touchViewDate:

Looking for CompanyHi there, I am in the same position, hence me joining SS today. I had to sell my home of over 30 years a while ago , so do not even live in a familiar place - trying to remain positive and forward looking but it is hard. The isolation is now getting to me now, it feels never ending. -
