Sometimes I look at what is going on and I...Agreed. Sometimes I look at what is going on and I think... WHAT?<br /><br />Never mind folk starving...look wee George is walking; his dad's getting an £8 million helicopter and his London flat is being done up at a cost of £6 million to us while people are living in cardboard boxes and sleeping on spikes just a few miles from where he lays his privileged head when he's in town. Not that he couldn't stay with his dad or his granny who have the odd spare bedrooms.<br /><br />After all, it's only for when he's in town. I heard about so many couples having to live part of the week with her parents, and part of the week with his, because they can't begin to think about a mortgage, private rents are more than they earn, and there are no council houses.<br /><br />As for the railway, why oh why is it that we help pay for English things and they don't help pay for our things.<br /><br />I mean what if Edinburgh's trams had been paid for by the UK, like Crossrail, or the London sewer, or HS2 or the Olympics, or HS3?<br /><br />And, do these people never think about Wales or Cornwall?<br /><br />When is there going to be a powerhouse there?<br /><br />Sorry, I too hate Britain. It's not a nice place to be anything except one of the super-rich or ennobled.<br /><br />Fuck you, hungry people. Look at my new helicopter!<br /><br />Oh yeah, and now we are to be forced to pray for mrs Parker Bowles because the Queen gave her the privilege for her birthday. What's wrong with a book token?<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7488826927992195485.post-29764419106198683622014-06-24T03:13:04.240-07:002014-06-24T03:13:04.240-07:00Hi Bruce.

Then maybe, those still stuck in the nightmare will agitate more forcefully for change.<br /><br />Hate is a strong word, but like you, often its what I feel when I see evidence of the British establishment's perfidious nature.pa_broon74https://www.blogger.com/profile/01915208411019621104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7488826927992195485.post-45344869296033872892014-06-24T00:54:14.352-07:002014-06-24T00:54:14.352-07:00Pa

It just rubs salt into the wounds with Glasgow being the hardest hit in the uk for welfare reforms, a windsor whos granny was pleading poverty a wee while buys him a wee 8 million pound helicopter and the news ignores 50,000 people marching against poverty to spend 20 mins on wee george walking.<br /><br />What kind of alternative universe are we living in. I have ranted at people in my workd for years about the return to victorian values for the rich and victorian conditions for the poor, what will it take to wake people the **** up in Scotland enough to bring about change.<br /><br />Bruce<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
