The politicians give us a vote, take the result and then decide to change it to what they want. Can we vote to get rid of the whole blooming lot of them?
I have no idea if this belongs to the chit chat forum or elsewhere. Yesterday I was told that someone of my entourage has booked a one way ticket to Switzerland. He won't come back, since he goes there for assisted suicide. He is young and will leave two teenage children and his wife. Surely his health situation is totally…
