Manchester Pride crowd figures -- organisers exaggerate by at least 500%

Alt Pride, 04-02-2007 03:38

The Manchester Pride organisers claim that 250,000 people watch the Saturday parade and similar figures have regularly appeared in the media over the years.

Cherie's Pilgrimage- Fucking Neo-liberals

Chris Murray, 30-09-2006 20:11

This was written before the Pope offended the Muslims, Jews
and Catholics. Ms Booth met Pope Benedict (in a veil) to discuss
fortress Europe's dwindling birth-rate, Whilst her husband is
prosecuting Illegal wars . Benedict's 'Schulerkreis' in Castelgandalfo
was preoccupied with the dogmatic definition of the Genesis Narrative.
It is a feminist polemic around the issue of intelligent design
and how dogmatics affect women's place in Western Christian Hegemony.
