  • I'm so sorry for what I am seeing in ytube of Latvia in the past few months

    The GFC 'bubble', the perceived govt corruption, the perceived inept govt pollies, etc etc.

    In my experience (from Australia) for over 5 decades, they argue too much between themselves on how to do things, instead of actually doing them.

    Use this crisis to put a stop to that sort of BS, and do something positive for the nation as a (as close as) single voice, of the people for the people. Latvia for Latvians.

  • Mjā, nu tā bļaušana jau godu skolotājiem gan nedarīja. Ja sākumā mana attieksme pret mītiņotājiem bija neitrāla vai pat līdzjūtīga, tad tagad pat nezinu ko domāt, ja tā ir Latvijas inteliģence.
