  1. I've read your posts and yes you ..sorry....yes they have and

    meaner than a junk yard dog


  2. We're on the edge of madness under Labour who don't give a **** about what the public and what and seem to want to control us and don't think we actually have brains of our own, they make me sooooooo! MAD  

  3. It is a dictatorship already but in name. Have they ever done anything that the people actually want? Do they care?

  4. This has been going on for a long time.  Many factors really... the EU being a large one.  I don't know what the EU want from us, but its in the interests of Europe, not of Britain.

  5. It would seem that more and more of us do actually feel that our poor country is being pulled this way and that! Britain hasn't gone mad dear, the polititians have. Lunatics are in charge of the asylum, really. I think Tiga has the best answer and I agree debt is mainly the cause. But we really can't blame government wholly for that debt. Banks have been buying bad debt from America - buying bad debt is never a good idea, ask anyone and people are encouraged (by the media) through advertising mainly. We're all apparently entitled to everything - holidays, electrical goods designer clothes - you name it! But we can and should blame the government for using taxpayers money to bail out banks. Sorry, that is just not on. Any businessman will tell you one has to make a profit, but really, it doesn't have to run into billions of pounds. British Gas (now owned by Germany/France) should never be allowed to increase our fuel, and then advertise that they're helping the customer. Lies all lies. We have well known people advertising for insurance companies and the like to increase our debt, Gloria Hunniford, June Whitfield, Carole Vordiman spring to mind. Older people are encouraged to release equity on their homes by more famour people, they will end up without their homes, it's really criminal and should be stopped. I could write a book about New Labour, criminals themselves, for they are supposed to work for the taxpayers and they only work for themselves, mouths permanently in the trough. I can't really say that the Green conservatives would be any better. Perhaps we should try UKIP?


  6. Great Britain's inhabitants are too individually independant to cave into a dictator lol. Our Government appears pretty stupid, but it's really strong. Britain may be going mad but it's not crumbling lol.

  7. Well, it wouldn't be the first time Britain's gone insane.

    But I wouldn't worry about a dictatorship.

    I mean, who'd want the job?

  8. Wake up love we ARE under a dictatorship!!!!!!

  9. Britain went downhill after they got rid of God.  

  10. not much of a question there.

  11. All our woes stem from excessive personal and national debt.

    For the last eleven years the population of the UK have been borrowing hand over fist based largely on hyped-up house price inflation. The economy has not been kept afloat by money earned by manufacturing and providing services to other nations but by borrowing, personally and nationally. People have been living under the delusion that they are worth what their houses were worth and that house prices would continue to rise year on year forever: this mythology then became a self-fulfilling prophecy with everyone desperately trying to ascend the "housing ladder" at all costs often by over extending themselves to breaking point. But what goes up must come down and, like the old board game Ludo, the housing ladder has become a housing snake with house prices temporarily in freefall.

    Another problem is the way the government has allowed billions of pounds to haemorrhage away on foolish and unnecessary "vanity" projects, e.g., the identity card scheme which will cost in excess of £18,000,000,000 - and for what - no one seems to know if it's supposed to combat terrorism, identity fraud or some other evil? I believe that the war in Iraq is costing the UK over £1,000,000,000 per annum (we've been there over five years) with no end anywhere in sight. The country and its people are in hock up to our necks; we are literally drowning in debt.

    None of the political parties have any answer to this problem and are all one as bad as the other.

  12. Welcome to the club...

  13. You got that right darlin!

  14. Come to America. It is just as bad. I am seriously beggining to question the sanity of the politicians of this nation and those who vote them in.
