I was not bothered about HS2 either but we do badly need a modern, efficient, reliable railway system and have done for years. They've easily fooled you into thinking the county's doing well. Just look around you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just look around you. I've looked around me today and seen lots of happy people, well fed, well clothed and in decent houses. Most people have central heating and indoor bathrooms and toilets. The working week is shorter than it used to be. We all get pensions at the appropriate age and there are benefits to help those in need. My wife and I live a comfortable life, our children have good careers and good standard of living, my grandson is doing well in his job and the younger grandchildren are doing well at school. Most people seem to have cars and go on holiday. Mobile phones and computers are universally owned. I bet if I go in town tomorrow I will see it full of people spending in the shops. Plus the sun is shining. It's a great life and we should try to enjoy it and not worry about things we can not change, in the words of the song.

And finding something to blame the government about instead of accepting the government have played a part in this success story. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're unfaithful to the mother of our children and marry one of our former mistresses? Not really something that we should brag about.
