This country is full to the rafters with good decent people

[Lady Whistledown]

What absolute drivel. Why the hell is someone who has nothing better or more constructive to do than stand on the street to watch a torch go by either good or decent? More likely to be a saddo who has nothing better to do with his/her time.

Probably about as pathetic as someone who spends £500 a year on a ticket to watch a bunch of rich blokes kick a bit of leather around a patch of grass I guess.

Hasn't it always been the case?

"The growing good of the world is partly dependent on unhistoric acts; and that things are not so ill with you and me as they might have been, is half owing to the number who lived faithfully a hidden life, and rest in unvisited tombs."

Where would the Daily Mail be without having some gullible people to peddle their misery to?

I said the very same thing to my wife the other day. Same for any (well, almost any) country, not just ours.
