| True, and yet this government are still hammering the Plebs with cut backs etc. etc. Now I - not bothered as It will be what it is - I will get a £ 50p rise on my Pension, but will lo9st over £40 because my wife is younger. So now - after bringing in the congestion charges etc. -- not necessarily the Tories, they are bring in Fuel charges of £12 50p a day. Can't afford hospital beds - keep getting shot off... then as there are fewer beds they lay off more nurses.. As there aren't s many nurses, they won't need these beds. After the diabolical farces every year, and promises of adding beds and personal to the NHS I was surprised last April to wait nigh 2 hours to give a blood sample... I left and thought I would make an appointment at the council … 3 and a half weeks wait. So I went to my doctor's surgery, be quicker No, was longer, and this was the surgery that sent me for a blood test. I went back up to the hospital... asked a friend that worked there why? He stated, and a Nurse who gave me the blood test confirmed - wife of a very good pigeon fancier. One who has won a National, like wise the son - that where as there used to be 7, after the last cut back … there was now only two etc. There was a running arguement on the local BBC regards the cut back of ambulances from 29 to 4! ... and those made redundent were replaced with agency workers whom had no idea where wht was and locations. the M.p. Strenuously denied any such thing. So the next night we were told by many who'd lost jobs etc. that i was true! So the M.P was cornered who again said it was true... that there was still 29 ambulances if needed, but only 4 were in use! So Camp the Chameleon cut back the forces etc. 35.000 police and still going down. Made, and still going further by making sentencing harder. Prison understaffed galore. So now they make it easier for the criminal to stay free... if not going to do over six month, to be let off... Best I stop here lol before I go off on one lkol. |

| the thing is, all this money sent over seas, given to the royals, and paid to the mp`s/government is all tax payers money.......which is supposed to be paid in to keep the uk running,
our national insurance is not international insurance, to be used to keep the rest of the world living in comfort....... |

| The aid was supposed to be a means of keeping people in their own country, originally, so they did not bother us.
In particular the backward countries.
The problem none actualy, or very little ever reaches the intended.
Giving aid to the likes of China appears irresponsible but there are many people in need of aid there not helped by their own country and their representatives ask many countries for help etc;
If successive governments have kept up the aid then there must be a reason.

| thing is misty, its not keeping them in their own country......they are getting millions and still coming here.......
when you think about it, Pakistan and china receive aid, but have a space program
I think a big percentage of aid money goes to crooked governments and our own crooked government, not to the people that might actually need it. |

| Of course you are right, David, big car and big house first for those receiving the aid, then the dribbles given no doubt to their friends.
Perhaps stopping all aid for a period would throw some light on the matter.

| the brexit fiasco is simply most of our mp`s, weather they are labour or conservative being against leaving the eu, and have been delaying for the past 2 years.....now they are putting their plan of action into place to either re vote, or scrap brexit altogether, they think that by squabbling among them selves it will cause so much chaos they can scrap leaving the eu and go against the will of the british people...
governments and the majority of the other parties are corrupt, the only genuine man who would have put Britain and the british people first was nick griffin, but they destroyed the bnp as it was, under his leadership......nick griffin would not be bought off, so they destroyed him, shame the same thing cant be said for tommy robinson, who incidently is on video admitting he has been. |

| Watching Question Time it was brought up what I have said many times previously, what if after another referendum people vote more overwhelmingly to leave?.
No one on the panel answered.
If they vote to stay in and it is by a less majority than the first one to leave, do we have a decider.
The idiots running the circus are a set of self centered clowns and have no sense of why they were elected.
If there is a General Election we should have numerous independents involved backed, not by Unions and the wealthy, but by the enraged public.

| It is all about back handers and defending their own corners and interests, So a M.P., as many are now, are charge £5000 or more to hold a meeting with business concerns. Of course legally they are limited to just what they can say and put forward. Then they point them to a 'Very Knowledgeable company that has great insight of just what s, and could be. Ok a bit pricey, but can at a price keep them abreast of matters and happenings at a fair price.
Golly gosh, it is somewhat new company owned and run by that MP's wife!!! True. You couldn't make it up.

| Not only those who are still MPs, Blaire and his cronies have made thousands, if not millions advising foreign powers how to manipulate the rules or how to by pass them etc;
Not to mention him and his side kicks advising the EU how best to make leaving the EU as difficult as possible.
Treason is a good description of their actions.
The general public will stand for so much but when enough is enough ???????.
