Manlinose Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Not my job to critque but all the opposition seem to be able to do is give out soundbites..millionaire's charter etcetc..as though there are no rich people in the Labour party.. Do you reckon "yah boo sucks" politics is good for the country then.? When you listen/watch PMQs doesn't it bother you that those people are in charge..? Both sides? i think we get the politics and politicians we deserve aren't they just a reflection of society as a whole these days? as i look around and see arrogance, aggression, selfishness, pettiness and apathy in increasing amounts, i do sometimes wonder where it all went wrong and where it is going to end up i don't hold politicians wholly responsible for the way we are as a society, but i do think all politicians of all political persuasions over the last 40 years or so must take some responsibility i'm just glad i'm not young anymore and don't have any kids (it's being so cheerful that keeps me going) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alchresearch Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 I love how people moan when stuff goes up a penny. Yet when it goes down (like beer) they moan that its too insignificant to make a difference! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
