The new morality.

Gratuitously provocative piano leg.

The great thing about the Victorian Age wasn't 'the wrapping of piano legs' in case they 'turned the heads of easily-led young men with their voluptuousness' but rather the way society leapt forward so incredibly fast. Social care; public medicine; education; penology; housing and much much more moved forward at breakneck pace largely motivated by the Christian Faith; the motivator which helped society, of all classes, to move forward with shared goals.
Consider our society. Where are the 'shared goals'? - They do not exist.
The new morality is to'have your own philosophy'. 'If it itches, scratch it'. 'Do your own thing'. It is all about hedonism. The great irony however, is that the godless, liberal left combines this damaging individualism with their miserable love affair with centralisation, collectivisation and state control. The two ideas are of course, totally incompatible - yet the liberal left seem incapable of recognising it. You don't have individuals in an ant colony!
The freedoms which matter are being eroded by our own government hand in hand with the wretched EU, whereas licence to act in degrading sexual, drunken, anti-social or criminal ways are protected.
* By the way. Those piano legs - purest leftie fiction. My Grandma had those covers on her piano. Like to guess why? - Obviously enough, it was to protect from scratches and scuff marks. Still - never let the truth get in the way of a good piece of leftie propaganda.
Little wonder the left hate the Victorians. They were fairminded, dynamic, moral and Christian.
What do your leftie historians do? - They ignore all the good - and particularly the Christian base. They then spend chapters trying to prove hypocrisy. I am sorry but these people were HUMANS and we are all hypocrites - including those self same historians!
