Oh, enough of this!

My apologies to other forum members and mods if this has already been aired in past threads, but I’m fizzin this mornin!

I have just sat through an interview on Sky News, with reference to the proposed cuts to the Police force. The figures being talked about are in the region of 28,000 personnel! I don’t know about anyone else here, but I’ve just about had enough of this b****y government, and the one previous to it in its death throes, bombarding us with how parlous a financial state this country is in. And yet with all this rhetoric about ‘no money in the pot’, ‘tightening belts etc, what do we see? Our government is funding an un-winnable war in Afghanistan, costing millions of pounds every day, and more importantly hundreds of young lives, I’m talking arithmetic here, not the rights or wrongs of it. The country’s infrastructure, schools, hospitals, roads etc, is degenerating to levels we have not seen here for 50. yrs. Irrespective of all this, while we can’t even give our war veterans a decent deal, our ‘learned politicians’ carry on financing benefits to immigrants who come here purely to get them. I’ve nothing against them as individuals, and some cases may be very deserving, but we just can’t b****y well afford it! This government continues to finance, with our money, aid programmes to countries that at the same, build nuclear weapons and put satellites into space, while their populations starve. We can also be cheered up by the fact that millions that we supposedly don’t have, are to be spent on a referendum about the changes to the electoral system. Oh yes, and lets not forget financing the research into how happy, or otherwise, we all are! Er,yeah, Mssrs Cameron and Clegg, have a think about that one. It seems that they can’t waste our money quickly enough. Its the economics of the madhouse with a sense of priorities to match.
I have a neighbour across the road in his late 50s. He can barely walk and has advanced prostate cancer. He has recently been turned down for Disabled Living Allowance. He had to wait almost a year to have a wheelchair ramp to his back door, along with grab rails. You guessed it, the council had no money!

Geeez, I had to get this off my chest, sorry if I’ve bored you folks, but I’m sick and tired of us all being taken for mugs. Whats worse, is that I can’t see anyone in the echelons of power with the balls to call an end to it!
