    Very noble of you Brian. We are animal lovers too but we cannot put wild animals before the protection of our crumbling society and loss of national identity. I'm sure where you live its all perfectly well preserved. But you must know unlike most people you don't have to worry about the cost of a mortgage, energy bills, council tax, not being able to see a GP for a month, etc etc.
    In the real world we all have to worry about these things.
    Labour will continue to let in migrants by the millions and put our public services and our resilience to breaking point.
    They will bankrupt the country as they throw money down black holes. They will increase taxes on large businesses who will reflect that in job losses, wage cuts and increased prices.
    To those voting labour- please don't.

    @baileywoodroffe 2 місяці тому +38

    When it comes to priorities I find the absolute inverse to be true.
    The economy is the most important aspect by far, because If I no longer have to worry about how I'm going to make rent and feed myself, I'd actually have the time to care about the environment and the animals within it (Which i very much do). Instead i find myself working day in and day out, in a city filled with faces i don't recognize, that certainly don't seem very happy to see me. I've been priced out of the housing market entirely, rentals included. I don't have a shred of time or energy to devote myself to the protection of animals and the environment. That would change if every day wasn't a fight for survival.
    What remains true regardless of political beliefs, is the internet will kill you. The seeds of depression are watered by opinions on Instagram. It really takes the wind out of your sails.

      Ok, let’s look at this. This situation has been caused by the Tories. They have reduced your employment rights, increased prices of everything, trashed the economy, pocketed billions of our money, decimated public services, increased the housing shortage and deflected blame by increasing immigration and blaming the immigrants for our problems. Think about the money for hotels for immigrants. Who made this decision and whose pocket is the money going into? We are being bombarded with propaganda from the media, run mostly by non-Dom billionaires, with a vested interest in supporting the Tories/Reform Ltd. Labour have promised to build affordable housing, etc. It’s a huge task to repair the state the country is in but let’s give them a chance.

    This is just vintage Bran May speaking gently and calmly about a subject that he has fought for his whole life, that means the world to him. It is so unfortunate that he could not have lived two parallel existences, one as the person who has purveyed so much joy and happiness around the world with his awesome artistic talent, and a second that could be the driving force in his country and perhaps the world for all good and righteous causes, not by waving his fists and raising his voice, but in his own calm and deliberate manner. I'll tell you this, if I were an Englander, and Sir Brian was anywhere on the ballot, there would be no doubt about who would get my vote. Sir Brian, thank you for who you are and what you do!👌❤

      You obviously never saw the clip from a live political TV show where May called people "bastards" before apologising profusely. He's not refined enough to be in the political world. Standing next to Queen Elizabeth II with his arms folded some years ago was enough to highlight that.

      There are ways to build more homes and respect English wildlife. Also, if you remember, the Labour Party stopped the Conservatives wanting to do away with environmental regulations in their home-building scheme. I think if Starmer told Sir Brian May that they're going protect wildlife, I'm inclined to believe him. Of course, if he doesn't, then he should be taken to task, but let's wait and see before passing judgement.

Part of that process is ensuring our green belt where many of our wonderful animals live, is well catered for and considered in the planning process.
    If labour steam roller that in, you can kiss goodbye to any greenbelt and what damage then will that do to our wildlife??

    Well done Brian… as we all age… (now in my 50’s and have cats and a Goldie) animals are our canaries in the mines. Our most vulnerable amongst us, other than the human kind they are our healing lesson for humility and compassion. They keep us and remind us to be ‘better humans’. Yes the more healthy , evolved and progressive people in government make a huge difference but it is down to every individual as a collective. Well done on finishing your tertiary study…. Psychics I remember?…. at a later time in your life. I am in my first year of Bach of Arts, psychology major and sociology , minor. Attempting to help towards making the world a healthier place. At the ripe age of 52yrs old. Never give up on yourself !. You may find some humour in this.. after a horrid recent divorce… I was determined to tackle it head on with grit and compassion … my i phone ring tone was changed to none other than Queens’s ( that little band from the 70’s😊) and I took a snippet from your song , Another bites the Dust, from my i tune list. My phone now rings to ‘ you took me for everything that I had and kicked me out of my home’. Fact is stranger than fiction … trust me. Never stop believing that your gentler and sensitive nature isn’t needed or appreciated in this world. Whose creative ability also gifts us music-that fulfills our souls and makes us mere mortals feel like we are coming ‘home’ to a place of safety.
