“reconstitute an associative culture” this will happen fast after the election and anyone who doesn’t like it will be deported and if UK born may be tried and sentenced to hard Labour.

When you have to “reconstitute an associative culture” you know there is no hope! People from strong associative cultures reconstitute themselves…they don’t need governments to do it.

I think “they” are more concerned about communications, when “they” say breakdown of society (Broken Society my arse) I think “they” really mean the bullshite “they” have been used to trotting out to the masses is being ignored, laughed at and recognized for what it is “propaganda”

Must be a bugga when your old method of influence is not working quite so well and, has all the hallmarks of an irreversible breakdown.

The Strategy Unit is basically trying to find new ways to flog a dead horse.

Wake up “they” you have been rumbled!

So if you find a firearm in the future leave it where it is for some child to pick up. Absolutely mind boggling.

Full quote
“I think we’ve been through a period where too many people have been given to understand that if they have a problem, it’s the government’s job to cope with it. ‘I have a problem, I’ll get a grant.’ ‘I’m homeless, the government must house me.’ They’re casting their problem on society. And, you know, there is no such thing as society. There are individual men and women, and there are families. And no government can do anything except through people, and people must look to themselves first. It’s our duty to look after ourselves and then, also to look after our neighbour. People have got the entitlements too much in mind, without the obligations. There’s no such thing as entitlement, unless someone has first met an obligation.”
Prime minister Margaret Thatcher, talking to Women’s Own magazine, October 31 1987

However, even taking the statement into context she did emphasise the individual first, in effect making society a selfish one where no one did care about their neighbour or looked after their family. It’s not so much as casting their problems on society as casting it on the government. Society is not the government.
