Our Government like most in the world is filled with idiots of the first degree,some of the bills they get through amaze me.
We are in a time of tightening belts and saving money so they tell us and our prime minister said in a speech not long ago "We are all in this together"
Since then they have hammered everybody in sight especially the disabled and poor,they cut the annual wage rises for all public sector workers to a 1% increase and suddenly the board who decide the MPs pay have decided they need an 11% increase.
Yep we are all in this together we give those crooks take.
Another unbelievable piece of legislation defies belief not only on economic grounds but moral and health grounds as well.
registered alcoholics are given £25 (that's $37.7) per day
in tokens to spend on booze. They don't get it in money so they don't waste it on luxuries like food I suppose. Can anybody tell me how does that make sense in any way?
OK Rant over you can come from behind the sofa now.

You already know how I feel about this, I get really wound up over this. I have never felt so disillusioned with a government as I am with this one and boy have we had some rough governments but none as bad as this one. Can't wait for the General Election although I know it won't be for a while.

The story is the same here, cut here, cut there, then give themselves a massive pay increase together with massive tax cuts for the wealthiest as it is them, we are told that give us work.

Just don't get me started Mick! I am incensed that my salary raise will be only 1% yet 'they' can have an 11% raise, it's bordering on criminal!
I don't drink a lot, I can't afford to so it beggars belief that an alcoholic can receive £25 a day for alcohol! Surely this money would be better spent of solving their alcoholism, not 'feeing' it?

By feeding it they hope to kill them off early to save paying out OAP and Health care.

Un freakin believable! I can understand how you feel.. I think all our governments are corrupt one way or the other.. I truly feel part of the problem is that those that become politicians are not even close to the best of what we have.Thry're greedy and ignorant. The people who are truly who we need in office want no part of the games and garbage! I mean really, every time we have an election I almost always wind up voting for the lesser of the evils! I never feel like I'm really voting for someone I can feel good about! Not in local or Federal elections! Personally I think they all should be shot and start fresh.. With the new ones keeping that firing range in the back of their mind!
