the wheels on the bus go round and round…. feeling dizzy :D
Copy of playboy which…….
Hmm….thing is Gaz when you take time to explain things there is a lot most of us would agree with you about. We all know things are not perfect far from it, its OK saying whats wrong…. but just knowing things are wrong isn’t a solution…. and I have to say I see no solutions in anything you say… just additional problems… sorry Gaz :?
Are we all off to France then? oh goody!! :D
safely in his pocket

I’m glad you manage on state benefits GAZLAN, I don’t think it’s sufficient for many people and the application process is even more dehumanising than the most menial jobs. Never mind the sheer depressing nature of walking past derelict sites. Over a mile of high street laid waste.
Political or systemic arguments are relevant, but they don’t address the deep individual losses, physical, emotional and social.
Of course it is political, the damage caused both mentally and physically is a terrible thing for anyone to be subject to. The difference of course, is the damage coming from the young mainly, we can go on for ever and a day discussing what the motives are.
When Thatcher decimated the coal industry and many other industrial outlets up and down the country, she laid waste to literally thousands possibly millions with the stroke of a pen. Do we have the same sentiment about those actions, ten, twenty, thirty years down the line, we can see the left over of her actions, towns literally closed down, and thousands became a victim of those debt peddlers, towns up and down this Island have the scars of that action and the children of those laid to waste subjected to the inflammatory language of the wasted, brought up in derelict estates forgotten by the govt. machine.
Yes it is political, and the beat goes on. The worst is yet to come in this country, you will see an introduction of foreign militia and police here, these foot soldiers will have no sworn allegiance to the ‘queen’ or the ‘subjects’ she purportedly rules over.
Regarding collateral damage ~ Ask the countless victims of OUR illegal war against them, they know all too well what collateral damage means.
Can you see it coming . . . Watch the streets they’re burning !
and when the streets have burned Gaz…. what then?

Who says insurance companies will pay? Damage due to riots are often not covered, I saw an interview that in those cases the police may offer compensation… which means the Tax payer… . Yes words its wonderful that we have young people turning out to help with the clean up, I never said it wasn’t.
Benefits should not be a lifestyle choice, people like Gaz should not get sympathy that he has to manage on the amount paid. Indeed if it is established that a person is receiving benefits as a lifestyle choice its my belief benefits should be withdrawn.
Last but not least, there are MPs who lobby that we should become a republic, personally I think the monarchy will be reformed when the queen dies….saying that I am not anti royalist, just realistic. This is about the riots gaz not about royalty, and you still have not shared your thoughts about them.

Where did the excess skin disappear? some some clever airbrushing I think…… things are never as they seem are they cosy. :D
Apparently there were no riots last night due in part because of the heavy rain in some parts of the country….scared of getting their new designer jackets and trainers wet no doubt :?
For those interested…. lets show the police forces,fire service and paramedics we support them and are thinking of them putting their lives at risk whilst these animals are running loose!. Finally thanks to all those hard working people like myself who are paying for the destruction they are causing through our taxes.
