An interesting read, Food for thought re Andrew Gilligan

Cowardice asks the question - is it safe?
Expediency asks the question - is it politic?
Vanity asks the question - is it popular?
But conscience asks the question - is it right?
And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular; but one must take it because it is right.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

This is an interesting read. As is my normal habit, I tend to listen to the radio while doing housework, cooking etc. Today is no exception and I've just finished listening to a programme about Andrew Gilligan. If you read this article you think;

''what a sensible well rounded individual''

BUT if you read this one...... a very different picture emerges.
