Hang your head in shame
What a disgusting document I am referring to the Ghurkha's right to stay in this country, let us remove all MPs who have not given military service to this country, unlike these brave decorated servicemen, the medals which are worn with pride, not purchased at John Lewis, but under enemy action have valour and bravery like no other
This is my message to all the so called ministers who are weak kneed and totally with out shame.
The men who have served the King and our present Queen, gave their lives long side British troops, they are the Ghurkha's.
I have had the great honour to serve with 22 Ghurkha engineers and the Army Air Corp in Malaysia, whilst working at the BMH.
They did not shirk from any difficult assignments; I for one would have gone on any assignment knowing I had a first class soldier with me.
How many of all these people who are coming in to this country, have they given life and time to serve the British people, I think not, The statement read out by some MP for the MOD made me sick, perhaps we the British people should export all those money grabbing MPs and their spin doctors to Afghanistan with the poor equipment, and bring home all the military units.
To my next one, that is Alice in wonderland, must say I do have to pinch myself and say 'which planet am I on' did not my parents say to me 'be never a lender or borrower' did your parents say that to you, I could not be the only one on this planet that has been told that.
Gosh I do not know what I will do being given and extra £2.50 in my next pension, mind you they may change their minds, the cabinet may need some new clothes, and don't forget the poor souls need all the money they can get, to buy up all those empty homes where the poor souls could not keep up with the Mortgage.
Industry is on it knees, but never mind the Prime Minster is going to get all the young people doing Community work, just what will that do for the economy, what about all those skilled people out of work, to hear that statement, that must be a kick in the guts.
When will somebody please stand up and say enough is enough.
No more gravy trains no fiddling, no jobs for the boy's, and no index linked pensions, in other words Do unto other as you would be done by.
Who do we vote for, and ,please god be soon, on the door step when the whiter then white (I am not referring to the skin colour) comes knocking at your door, what will you ask them, and if it is the one that has been in for the past five years I for one will give them a verbal kick in the backside.

The gravy train
MEPs to get pay rise
It has been reported that the new MEPs will get a 20% pay rise, so members who are elected to this gravy train will be £13k better off.
The new rules for these plutocrats will see those getting 7, ooo Euros a month exchange rate will mean they take home £76,360 a year, just think of all the perks they will pick up, and at the end of office a massive pension.
My MOD pension has had a massive rise of £2.50 a week, my old age tags behind that, just think the tax man will come down on me like a ton of bricks.
I do not have an accountant who knows the way to play this game.
How do we trust any body in politics to tell the truth or even work for us, no those days are gone, integrity, honesty they would not know if it hit them in the face?
Think how we were told about Iraq, then we find out no written papers, but never mind out troops can get killed, so others can swan around the world and tell others how to run their countries, sick making.
We now are being told about vile smears which have been sent by emails, this goes to show what a deplorable state this so called government has right from the start brought this country to its knees.
When will this country regain its creditability and trust of its people, to believe that we have statesmen who can deliver what is promised.
That ladies and gentlemen is the million dollar question

Why not charge?
Why do we not charge?
The cost to the NHS is rising with the incidences of drunks and fighting following excessive drinking.
A&E are stretched in coping with these people, when they have been treated are they polite no way, the language is appalling and abusive.
People, who can not control the amount they drink, should have to pay, as all the advertising and government warnings have fallen on deaf ears.
It is not just picking them up from the ground, but the massive cost to save their liver and the destruction of the whole body. What they do is their own affair some would say, I for one would point out there are other patients who are more disserving then them.
Just what is happening to young people, the disturbing injuries that have been sustained by two boys' and the effects that will haunt them does not bear thinking about.
Yes I am back on my questions for the so called caring services, in that they had taken into care two very disturbed young people, it has been reported that they have been seen walking around in bare feet and in an unkempt condition.
The injuries that were sustained could have been fatal, thank goodness the other young boy was able to get away and the kind people who took him in,
How quickly did the police arrive and the social services act.
I expect there will be the wring of hands, and of course I was not aware of the situation is poured out.
The family situation will be the cause stated, this is my comment from the baby P case, if you have children you should be prepared to take care of them, or are we looking at another social problem as the above comment.
The future care of these two young people who are on the way to a harden way of life, must be shown there is another way, how did the boys who were responsible for James Bulger death turn out.
No one has been told, but they have after years in custodial care, change of name plus a new life, will we ever know the results of this treatments they have received.
To all the girls who think it is the right thing to brag about with I have scored, and then wonder why they are pregnant, all these people should look at what happens when little ones come in to this world, and then discarded and abused, the trauma that is caused by this lack of personal responsibility is appalling, most of this is caused by drink and drugs consumed, when trying to look cool.
We need a change in the way we conduct our lives, if we have any chance of caring for the young, from the first breath to starting work care needs to be first priority.
