Moaning changes nothing only makes one unhappy. The points I brought up are very relevant as they relate to REAL situations not generalisations. The point about the sun shining was relevant to show how lucky we were to have this free pleasure. Count your blessings. Stop reading the papers and watching the news and enjoy yourself. That's fine by me. You do what you choose to do and leave me to choose what I want to do. It's not my job to improve anything. We pay the idiots in Westminster to do that. I'm happy enough and if you don't like my moaning then don't read it. I've told you that before too. I was talking about our infrastructure when you joined in and, I f I did want to generalise, then I will. I have stated many times that I don't take any papers and I don't read any on the net either. My entire news intake comes only from BBC News and Sky News. If your memory wasn't failing, you would have remembered that. I don't take instructions from you, or any other airy fairy. 5 minutes ago, Jack Grey said: If you think that people in the UK are living in poverty then you really dont know what poverty is Anyone can have a comfortable life if they work hard enough in the UK In most countries, if you don't work you don't eat We have over 3 million unemployed in the UK and plenty of jobs to go around The only reason is because we have a welfare system that lets people choose to work or not That's the usual Tory dogman and you've trotted it out a thousand times before. Just more proof that you can't even manage to think for your yourself. Don't fall off the bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try watching GBnews at 6 pm and get a balanced view on current topics. As you say it is not your job to improve things and so let those whose job it is get on with it and have faith in them. There is a saying which goes something like Lord give me the strength to change those things I can and the strength to accept those things I can not change. PS Are you going to Pickering ?

Good God man, if you get your news from GB News, everything becomes clear and I'm obviously wasting my time trying to have a sensible debate with you.
