My plan is to get a French Chauffuer blind drunk, give him the keys to a merc, and put some paranoid bird in the back with some random grocers son, who will tell him to drive like [edited by admin] off a shovel, because some crazy people called papparazzi want to do something absolutely awful to her, called "photography" but that's just plain silly, isn't it?

Hospitals and schools financed by private enterprise, a guaranteed rip off we workers will have to pay for generations to come.


Yeah, our local hospital costs us £46 millions every year, and rising, through PFI.

The local council intends to build a guided busway to it. Another wheeze, which another wasteful flawed transport project. But, as wea ll know this is a turkey, PFI wouldn;t touch it with a bargepole.

Problem is, you get this guded bus to the hospital, only to find you have to wait on a trolley in the corridor, because the ward you need has been closed because it couldn't be afforded to be kept open.

That's the Labour way.

Soultions? I'm sure that a learned gent like yourself ralise that before you can build the positive you have to recognise and dismantle the negative.

Bump the fascist labour government.

To respect those who pay for our society and stop seeing them as a cash cow to fund profligacy.

Bring in John Harvey Jones, or similar, to sort out hospital managements. To slim it down.

To spend the money saved on frontline hospital treatment.

To cut down government bureaucracy.

To make every public pound spent accounted for.

To make sure that underspent budgets are carried forward, so that we don't spend money just because it needs to be spent within a set timescale, on anything whether absolutely needed or not.

To control politicians' egos, to stop them seeking to embark on big projects just so they can tick a policy box.

To spend tax payers' money carefully.

To force politicians to listen to the electorate. Remove the need to vote for a basket of policies so that the issue which attracts you is balanced by a whole raft of rubbish and evil which doesn't. Referenda would do this. Invest power back to the people.

To return public transport back to the public, who are still shelling out huge sums of money for it anyway, but not getting any profit reward in return.

To give pensioners a real deal, rather than the raw one they're getting just now (maybe it would help stop those who have the choice from emigrating), across the whole range of services, which they've already funded over their entire working life.

To claw back from greedy utility companies the huge profits they've generated by hiking tariffs by obscene amounts.

To police by consensus. Bobbys back on the beat. Real community policing.

To remove all human rights for prisoners who have committed crimes of violence during the period of their incarceration. Rights have to be earned, with them come obligations and responsibility.

To terminate the insidious move towards council conrolled police, enforcers, wardens etc. Who needs councils snooping in our bins when it would be an offence if anyone else did it?

To roll back the drive toward labour's police state. removal of the right to remain silent. Summary justice. Blanket road tolling monitoring our every movement. Blanket DNA databases. ID cards and its database. Return real power to the people.

To bring our soldiers back from unjust campaigns, so they aren't killed for no good reason.

To stop taxing us to death to fund unnecessary nuclear weapons. Remember most of the current cabimnet are former members of CND. Fascist Labour hypocrites.

There should be a prospect for a real labour movement. God knows our nation needs one. There are no current means of expression for real working class values. Real egalitarian values of opportunity and reward for ability and effort.

Rather we're organised on a self serving basis of greed and exertion of power. We're operating just like the jungle. The honours system from the monarchy down simply reinforces this.

All this proves is a triumph for the ideologies of Trotsky over Lenin.

Unless heed is taken, I fear that the old ideological wars will be fought again. The 20th Century could well become the "groundhog" century.

Hopefully I'll be long gone by then, but I fear for the youngsters who, because they've not been encouraged to understand previous societal failings, could just get the biggest deja vu experience possible. Not a legacy I want to leave.

Perhaps they should be binning the computers and the skateboeards and getting back into the libraries.

:sad:

We have a choice here, we can become the 28th member of the EU & give Brown and the rest of the nuclear loving Anglo-Scots the choice of staying & representing their constituents in an Independent oil rich Scotland or feeding their own power hungry egos on the international stage being MP's somewhere across the border if anyone will take them

You're having a laugh.

You want credibility. You gotta stop coming out with pash like this.

Try again, after putting your brain cell in gear.
