Who is running this country

Why do I ask that question,on reading the papers and listening to the news, the people who are in charge of Unions are say that if the cuts are imposed they will bring this country to a grinding halt.
My question to them how are we going to get out of this awful mess that their friends from the last government left us in.
I have not seen any ideas being put forward by them, when you think how much they earn and the houses that they live in, one thinks of not in my back yard, are they worried the tax man may wake up and sent them a letter, you can bet your sweet soul that will not happen to them.
We have too many people coming to this country and taking jobs that have been refused by Brits, they will not do the menial jobs as was shown on a programme on TV.
Just cast your minds back to the end of the second world war, when this country was on its knees, the government had to in port people from the West Indies to do the unsavory jobs.
For goodness sake lets have some common sense, and get this country working together.

We have seen the benefits cheats,it is time that that was stoped, as I have written in past blogs, and my comments on the number children in any one family.

It was so nice to see 60k people turn out for Help-Heroes, pleased it did not rain on them, nice to see people enjoying themselves.

We have our Army Benevolent show on the 25-26 September here in Kingsteignton I just pray that the weather stays fine, so please if you are in the area please come and join us, fun for all the family.
