Terry ,
I will find it very hard to vote for any one, they are all Bent and corrupt,
I cant vote Conservative, and certainly cant vote LibDem, I cant vote Labour and when I do the Pakistani born MP gets in again, also Bliar said the other day he would be coming back into Politics again and his bent son Euwin is also standing as a Labour Candidate at the next election.. Can you imagine two Bliars in Parliament.?
There should be a Non Political Party that has No Party Line to follow, One that only has the people and the Country
at heart. Stop all overseas aid for starters. It is mine and your money he is giving away to all the Despots of the world then it all goes into Swiss banks.
All our money should stay here, I pay Income Tax on my miserable Pension that I bought with my own money then they take it off me and give it away.
I once voted for the Raving Loony Party, they were the only ones who told the truth.
Cheers
Brian

Couldn,t agree more, I think its time for all polotician,s to put there heads together have a coalition of the big 3 Con,s Labour UKIP, And the now fourth in line Lib Dem,s. Get out of the EU and let charity begin at home. Get our troops out of conflicts they should never be involved in Sort out the big corporation,s making a killing enough money to pay the deficit off between Bank.s/ Tax Dodger,s / Gas and Electric companies making huge profits for there share holder,s / Along with a few more non dom,s. Keep our armed forces at the number,s they are to defend the realm as they were intended. Have a bloody good sort out in immigration send all the Eastern Europeans home and give our British youngsters the chance of a working life. Start trading with the commonwealth countries world wide not were we are told by Brussels. That is not as hard as it might sound it is all achievable if the four party,s got around the table and thrashed it out. I looked up at the three sister,s on the Pier Head the other day, There was 3 flags displayed the white ensign, the union jack, and that bloody rag belonging to the EU There should be a Red duster in its place. Liverpool has many monuments on display to the Merchant Seaman all ratings and officer,s who gave the ultimate. Convoy opperations were moved to Liverpool from Bristol for very good reasons. So lets form our own political party it seems to me that we can see what poloticians cant {COMMON SENCE} So i am putting you up for election as our leader the new party { THE CAPTAIN KONG PARTY} Get you a soap box on the pier head you wont have to have a manifest ?? Just a copy of a lot of the post,s on this forum of ours here is my vote X Regards Terry.

John you and I have both experienced the ruthless decisions of ATOS, They are a law unto themselves, virtually impossible to get direct contact with someone who makes a decision on your Benefit. unless there is a mass petition against them nothing will be done, imagine how someone with a Mental Condition could fight them, i fought for her also a Outfit that helps Mentally Disabled People with there claims, my ex Wife gave up, almost ended up back in a Mental Hospital, i made sure She had sufficient funds, but some do not have anyone to assist them, at one time i was convinced she would end it all herself permantly, the real Benefit Fraudsters are getting away with it, they seem to target those incapable of defending themselves. the easy touches, anyone who will help there targets.

tony i think after tonight's undercover show some of the pencil necks might think twice before trying to con anyone and so they should be all this is set up to show the gov is doing something to take our minds of the tax avoiders costing a hell of a lot more granted some do try to con the system but i doubt if they appeal when put of this is one for the human rights brigade to take on instead of paying exorbitant monies to the dross that are sneaking in here?jp

Pat’s Petition:
The Hardest Hit campaign:
LINK: http://www.merchant-navy.net/forum/n...-campaign.html
The government needs to review the impact to these changes and the effects it will have on disabled people, their carers and families. We ask the government to stand by its duty of care to disabled people/those with ill health, their carers and families. Regrettably at present the government is not performing this duty, resulting in a negative impact on peoples lives, leaving may individuals feeling unsafe, confused, isolated, scared and struggling to carry on.
Pat’s Petition:
Every signature counts and will allow our view to be expressed and heard. So please show your support by signing Pat Onions’ e-petition at Stop and review the cuts to benefits and services which are falling disproportionately on disabled people, their carers and families - e-petitions by the closing date on the 01/11/2012 at 10:12. Your support is vital for everyone’s future.

I sincerely hope those that are horrified at what the British Govt are doing to the most Vulnerable people in our society can now see the huge disgusting waste of Billions of British pounds on the Olympic Games when people who are sick and incapacitated are treated like Lepers by your own Goverment.
Many people did not like my view when i said Compulsory voting should be introduced at Govt Voting Elections and also council elections as that is where these people first learn how to decieve the people.
by only having minority voting thats how you get terrible govts such as you have now.
By being tough on your selection of your local member you will get a much more selective Govt.
People who are sick and injured are being treated with contempt simply because the Govt of the day view them as easy targets.
You are right about forming a new Party that stands up to these Parasitical Parliamentary representatives that are nothing but free loaders. my very best to you Glenn
