I have an observation. The new ConDem Nation in the UK shuts down the road and rail link to Scotland. They pass a new Law The Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act to restore order to Scotland. This allows paramilitaries to gang rape and murder Scots with impunity. However they do offer the Scots an opportunity to wear the uniform and take part in the rape and murder by reintroducing the ability to buy military commissions. Except these are unofficial purchases and not declared for tax purposes. The UK would also have to withdraw from the EU and its obligations under the European Charter of Human Rights. I would try to explain why sane people believe that the right to gang rape and murder contravenes basic human decency but I shall refrain.
Then the Government decides that because of the Global Recession they have decided to take a lead and cut back the Alphabet from 26 to 17 letters. This they assure the people will make the language leaner and stronger and prepare the people for the tough days ahead. The Scots meanwhile in response to AF(SP)A ban all English Films from Scotland, no more Attenborough, nothing from Channel 4 Films, instead the Scots start watching French Films.
I can see how changing the name of the language from English to Ukish is very inclusive. It’s a great idea, thinks outwith the box. In fact you probably don’t even see the box. My if only that creative intelligence were focussed. My priority in the above scenario would be to repeal AF(SP)A. Did I mention that the English had kept a Scots princess locked in a tower for eleven years force feeding her but otherwise isolating her. I can see how it might slip your minds.
I ve a great suggestion MEELAL!Why dont we resolve or may be if u people like debate even,talk about changing this “meetei mayek”to kanglei mayek so that it implies to all communities but not narrowing to only meetei!We know meetei are the sole founder but it should be credited to all indigenous people of Kangleipak as puya as we know were according to history were safely guarded by even by people of kanglei in hills too(when meetei ningthou himself was in his mad situation(spellbound by Gosai))
