Ye gods did anyone see the more 4 prog on the nations debt last night?.
I was slightly puggled by the sheer stupidity of our so called leaders Labour and Tory, even with this lot in we are still borrowing far more than we earn, the thing that got me down was how much money each and every man woman and child has had borrowed against them a staggering £77000, and it's rising every minute, our kids kids will be paying it off if the country hasn't fallen apaert by the time they become adults, and yet we still give £7billion in aid each year and we still have loads of none UK people coming here and getting medical care benefits etc we are still fighting wars far from these shores and pumping billions in reconstruction aid to these war zones, when will they learn we are close to bankruptcy and stop wasting our money on these pet projects, charity begins at home or so I've always been told.
It's ironic you and I will have to tighten our belts while we are borrowing money to give away to countries that should be giving aid to us, the world or at least this country has gone totally crazy.

Hi Mell
I started watching it but had to turn it off, they have spent out money now they are making us pay for it.
We have our only high school closing next year, the kids are being sent miles to other schools.

Thing is have you noticed how they change things by stealth, now they are saying "how can you pay for your old age care" hang on!, Haven't we paid already!??, thing is we live in a backwards world, if your a wounded Ghurka coming back from fighting you use to get deported but if you are missing a hand and an eye and are from Egypt but now live here on the state and keep shouting about what a bunch of idiots we are and how we should all be killed you get treated with care and almost reverence, you don't have to work and can spout sedition all the hours the good lord or Alah gives you, we now spend more money on benifits than we get back in in taxes yet we still want Trident and we are getting aircraft carriers but minus aircraft and one will be left in dock and never used!. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHH!!!!!, BANG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1, oh heck me spleen has gone hypernova!.0

Breathe in.......
breathe out.......
better?
We haven't paid for ourselves Mell no - the workers now are paying for the sick and elderly people now and so on - hence the problem looming - the 60's babies will be retiring and there won't be enough workers to keep us :shock:
I have recorded it and looked at it earlier.....decided to watch desperate housewives instead
Love

I am so sorry to hear this but this was s similar story to us. My hubby was in the army and then his back totally went. He was on drugs and off his head, could hardly walk let alone bend or move, i was dressing him and we could get a brass bean. I had four kids at school, we had just bought a house and i only worked part time, hubby was medically retired out of the army and we could get the square route of nothing. That has got to be the lowest part of my life, trying to keep my family together, feed and clothed and dealing with a hubby who felt he was unless and suffering with depression and a crumbling back.
If it had not been for the British legion i do not know what would have happened.
I am sick to death with this country supporting other countries with aid, paying money to build wonderful building in Brussels, giving benefits to people from other countries, allowing people into the country from other countries taking our kids/young peoples jobs and carers.
We need to take the Australian attitude look after your own...If you donot like the way the country is get out and return to where you originally came from.
Before anyone takes offence i am not national front supporter my kids have friends from all kinds of background as do i but if we are going to get this country back on track someone need to grow a set of balls and do something.0
