What If

What If

 

Two letters that mean so much, I pose a question to you what would happen if all the money that this government has borrowed has to be paid back within a year, answers on a post card please.

There is so much spin from this government and all departments, which gives me doubts about what the out come of this inquiry, there is so much coming out of the woodwork, will this bring the perpetrators, who took this country in to two wars, to justice

Which has had a major impact on this country, in cost to the lives of our young men and women and that impact on their families?

We are coming up to the festive time and the sales pitch is high, How are families going to manage, we have many people who are on the bread line and finding it very hard to make ends meet.

To think of the huge bonus that has been paid out to lots of workers who have had to have government money to stay afloat, and remember that the MOD people have received the same, just makes one think.

I received a Christmas card from the RBL asking me to write inside a message to a person who was in their care, just what should I write, this person who has given his all in defence of this country, thank you for what you have given, that is lame.  When one just has to look around to see that there is no respect, with the drunks on our streets and drug taking at an all time high, he must be think why did I risk my life.

My wish for the coming year is that I can open my news paper to see a head line, that put a smile on my face and joy in my heart.
