It is reported that motorists have been issued with 16.9 million parking tickets in the last year costing them £4.6 m per day, no wonder the High Street is dying. Parking is expensive enough anyway, and free parking virtually non-existant. With bus fares capped at £2 it would make sense for more use of public transport? Cheaper train fares would also help!
OK – so most politicans are on holiday so the ‘news’ of their stupidity is restricted. However 55% of the public think that government should be doing more to combat climte change. Dickwit Tice says we should embrace climate change and enjoy the English Champagne whilst baskinking in the high temperatures and fumes created by wild fires – damn nature reserves and moors – concrete over them (my neighbour would!). How do these people get elected to Parliament? The British public can be very stupid with opinions based on almost religious fervour. However a fairer system would allow bigots to proliferate! Most voters have access to at least a mobile phone- so individual decisions could be made? Like bringing back capital punishment and cutting health care and benefits for the poor and disadvantaged. Basically that is Reform and Restore politics in a nutshell. Ask what people want and then promise to deliver it (however outlandish and cruel – selfishness seems to know no bounds).
Raining again, water butts full again. My apples that are late harvesting are still small, but reports say they should be sweeter. Is it a co-incidence that my local cider factory Thatchers, made profits equal to motororists fines last year? Just sayin’! They have also just increased their cost in local shops.
I had the misfortune to tune into a phone in, and it was about royalty and Megan and her man, but I was amazed by the stupid of people phoning in with considered comments based on absolutely no knowlege based on only media bollocks. Do these people have no relatives or friends who advise them not to air their ignorance and stupidity on national media.
