Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} A Matter of Angels by Nyla Nox Open Letter to British MPs — Abstaining is for cowards. As a member of parliament, you need to vote, or get out. Jun 8, 2018 · 2 min read. Next week, MPs from the main opposition party will again abstain from voting in one of the most important parliamentary decisions for decades. On Tuesday, they will vote neither YES or NO to the Lords’ amendment to the W i thdrawal Bill about staying in the EEA. This development is itself a scandal — that it exists at all, as a desperate ‘backstop’ to try to save us from falling out of the single market and customs union because of a lack of courage to fight Brexit all the way — and that it was left to the unelected Lords to try to be Her Majesty’s Opposition while the Labour party enabled Brexit. But I feel very strongly that, for an MP, abstaining is an act of cowardice. We didn’t elect you to have no opinion. We elected you to make decisions. I can understand that citizens may wish to abstain from voting sometimes. I have done that, when I felt I was not well informed enough, or when I felt an unresolvable moral dilemma. But that does not apply to MPs, the elected representatives. You have to inform yourselves, and you have to arrive at a decision. This is true even more in times of crisis. Every vote on Brexit is a vote to either enable or prevent a national disaster. If you abstain, member of parliament, you are a coward. You are there to debate and to vote. If you abstain in a matter of national survival, you need to give your seat back to someone who will vote. Nyla Nox.

' “Heart of the Desert” is a tale of heat and dreams, longing and sacrifice. There is a hero who is hooked on sweets, a heroine who hangs fairy lights, and a Queen in a castle made complicated by riddles, hallucinations and the fluidity of time.' Donna Quattrone in Cabinet des Fees. The Hatching of the Neo-Fascist Egg. Where did the rulers of today develop their dangerous strategies? I am afraid of them. Nyla was there, deep inside the experiment of ‘internal fascism’. For seven years, I lived inside a place, a place like a small country, that was run ruthlessly, some say brutally, on the principle of winners and losers. The winners were those who were ‘born to rule’. They were considered naturally superior, after they proved themselves to their own masters, in a sadistic Selection of the Fittest. And their inborn superiority gave them the ‘natural’ right to take whatever they wanted. The leaders were entitled to treat everyone else with the contempt they deserved. I have no doubt that they looked at the rest of us as almost sub-human. I was one of the rest. We were all losers in our leaders’ eyes. We were shouted at, publicly humiliated, and openly intimidated every single day. Or night, in my case. This kind of treatment was considered normal. Later it was called bullying, still infantilising us, and minimising our suffering and their actions. But this ‘bullying’ was not a regrettable exception. It was, in fact, the living expression of their internal fascism.It was the way their world was, and it was the way our world should be. When your masters consider themselves a superior species, they treat you like a lesser species. What we experienced as petty cruelties such as not being allowed to go to the toilet, being penalised for minor infrictions of constantly changing behavioural rules by taking away some of our money, the money we desperately needed to survive, was part of a fascist system. In the minds of our masters, we, at the bottom, needed to be controlled. We were not worth anything better. Naturally. In their eyes we were born to be ruled. Their favourite phrase was that we needed to be ‘cracked down’ on. At the place that I call The Most Successful Bank in the Universe (not its real name), where I, and many jobless humanities graduates, worked a zero hours job with no toilet breaks to illustrate the Bank’s vision while others slept, all throughout the night. As the new government of the US takes power, and as it rushes to execute what others have called a neo-fascist coup, I realise that many in that government actually were the among the master people who conducted this Social Darwinist experiment. I lived there, every night, all night. But it took the current political situation to open my eyes to a deeper truth: This was the place where the neo-fascist egg was hatched. I am afraid of them.

Additional information Nyla: There is much speculation as to the origin of the feminine name Nyla. It could be a feminine form of Nyles, a masculine name and a variant of Neil, and would therefore be of Irish origin and would mean ‘Champion’. Some hold that it is Hebrew in origin, others that it is Arabic. It could also perhaps come from the name of the river Nile. All of these suggested origins tie in with the fact that the name is most popular in the Middle East. Definition funny of Nyla: That girl is such a Nyla!
