Down goes the big meaty head in a abject display and that familiar act of contrition is mumbled: 'Oy am disappointed with myself'.<br /><br />That's about as far as Shame goes in this country and as a nation we have plenty to be ashamed about. But shame only follows reflection and we are not good at that because we are too busy 'moving forward'. I would be much happier if we stood still for a while and reflected. <br /><br />We are a careless people fattened by instant gratification.<br /><br />We should hang our heads in shame that we are treating refugees so appallingly and have a politician like morrison who will hand a massive bribe to a corrupt country and toast that transaction in champagne. <br /><br />Alas though I don't think that pic of Morrison tipping back the bubbles is going to be his Hockey cigar moment. It doesn't affect us. We have no shame. We do not reflect. Let's move on.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
