Thursday
morning I will be teaching Philosophy in in iust over 90 minutes. I
reflect on the election campaign so far and the stories I have heard.
One candidate in told me about her experience in a hustings
yesterday. The UKIP candidate she told me related every issue there
is to immigration and migrants. Further stories I hear UKIP turns up
to nothing that has a soul in in it..They are not there at hustings
on carers, disability ,renewables, climate change or anything that is
complex,not certain or philosophical. They have closed minds, they
are the true essence of Emerson`s comment "certainty is the
hobgoblin of the closed mind. I have only ever seen one UKIP member
at any Philosophy class I have been to or given.......makes you think
does it not?
