    Hi Jim, I hear what you say, but who put him on Sanctions?
    his own working class people in the Joke Centre.? Try writing to Cameron, to that Duncan Smith, and anyone else in authority, do not take the word of a creep in the Job Centre , they are always full of their own importance, even they can become unemployed. Do not take crap off anyone, there is always someone more important to get to.
    Always get a Snake by the head, not by the tail. Go to the Top.
    Every success to him.
    Cheers
    Brian.

    Hi
    On top of all that Bliar imported up to Five Million immigrants into this country, they are now breeding more, open door policy, it was a Planned Plot by him, Brown and Blind Pugh, to turn our country into a Multi Cultural and Multi Faith Country without the Permission of the British People.
    How can you employ an extra Five Million Immmigrants if there are no jobs for our own.
    The Politicians live very comfortable lives at our expense

    Hi shipmates, most of us here have done our bit and payed our tax, I dont blame any of the partys for the mess we are in ,Because of the greedy bankers, but What has gone wrong? it started many years ago before we were born 1 st Jan 1909 The first old age pension given to all men age 70, 2 to 5 shilling a week, "Happy days for the lucky few most men in them days died Age 48yrs, The first year only 500,000 were payed, they were 10 workers in jobs for every O.A.P The system worked for years . Until The British empire started to go our exports took a big hit and industry was in decline but the government had loads of gold in the bank so no probelm , Then The 2nd world war and the full welfare state {cradle to the grave} Many acts were made into law? But due to the N.H.S. and great doctors we all started to live longer not 48yrs 1909 but 80yrs+ today now the normal lifespan in the U.K. 67% increase in government spending from 100 million to 700 bn in 60 years. Welfare was a big vote winner for the partys ,Today the government spends 120bn more than it gets in tax???? so they have to borrow off the banks they borrow and borrow more to pay the intress like a free credit card, When the Iron lady was in power the intress rate was 15% on 3 year gilts {government bonds} that how they borrow money , bit of paper back by gold ? all gone sold off ? to service 30 years of debts? now they only 2%intress on government bonds. {wortlhess} we are set to increase our debts by more than 100% over the next 5 years cuts or no cuts {the u.K is broke} The bank bail out was only the first step we have many more shocks to come.

    My last 4 years in the North Sea was not because I liked it, it was because it was the only job I could get. In 1988 I was on 32 pounds a day, some companies you got a weeks leave after 5 weeks and some of the crews off these ships had to go on the dole after leave was up if no ship in for them. More often than not you had to pay your own travelling expenses. I am not talking about the regular oil industry vessels such as supply and seismic etc. which weren't badly paid, but whenever there was a down in the oil industry this reflected on ships being laid up. As you are aware after the Piper Alpha disaster on returning to Aberdeen we were paid a visit by 2 very Royal visitors, when one asked my boss what was happening to the crew my boss replied I am sending them home on a weeks compassionate leave sir. He forgot however in my case however to say he wouldn't be paying us for it, at least I was short changed, possibly because after the dust had settled I upset him by telling him where to put his ships. He even offered more money to stay. However I had a new and better job already lined up some months beforehand. I know what it is like to be out of work, my brother was out of work for 3 years and in the finish he was that depressed he wouldn't even talk to anyone. He is even now terrified of leaving his job as a security guard and has to work about 80 hours a week to survive as is on I think 2 pence above the minimum wage. I wont try and describe the living conditions on some of these vessels I am describing as you probably already know, the owners of these vessels knew they had you by the short and curlies. They would not recognize any union and if you did show a tendency towards you were just sacked. In 1988 the press gangs still existed belief me, I have had people thrown onboard just prior to sailing if someone didn't turn up and the office manager would drag someone out of a pub and coerce onboard. Needless to say he was only interested in getting the ship away the problem of dealing with someone with the DTs wasn't his problem. John Sabourn

    Louis I read your report with great trepidation I am now thinking of buying up any old tin hats cos the doom will suerly bring chaos to our country I will no doubt sellthem all at a great profit when the class war breaks out and will no doubt because of my ingenuity be classed as a capitalist barsted but will employ agents all over the country to sell them thus giving dozens if not hundreds of people jobs they will want a union which will demand more wages from there offices and wages for there secretaries and laptops etc not forgetting the fat expenses the war willend no tin hats will be needed the agents will lose there jobs the union will call strikes to anybody who will listen iwill also lose my job but will be classed as a capitalstbarsted who only looked after himself the only winners will be the fat unions who will keep calling strikes andkeeping thrr cars salaries laptops and pensions this is the way it works ps anybody want to by a cheap tin hat cappy

    Default Worthless money?

    Hi shipmates, Hi Cappy, not my words but some big shot in the City of london, I finish school 13years old to work to support my family, so did not have much schooling was At sea non pool age 14yrs Cappy the unions today have very little power in most places' and No boss can pay any wages, if he dont earn any money for long. the future is not to put any money in the bank, but to spend it on rum or a good time!!! The banks cant steal off you if you have nothing, and the taxman/government cant get any if you dont have any assets'. sorry about the gloom and doom, but it will happen in the next few years we are all going back to sea. Jobs are for our young people are few and far between with bad conditions, on low or min wages a very sad fact But the country U.K plc is broke and living on credit one step ahead of the day of payment.

    .Updated: 22 April 2013 12:50 | By pa.press.net'25% of Bulgarians want job in UK'


    .

    MPs are preparing to debate the possible impact of immigration from Bulgaria and Romania
    More than a quarter of Bulgarians questioned in a BBC survey said they intend to come to the UK to work.

    An initial poll carried out for BBC Newsnight by Vitosha found that one in four people in the country wanted to take advantage of a relaxation in restrictions which come into effect next January.

    A second survey carried out a month later, in March, to delve into what concrete plans people were actually making found that 4.7% were in contact with people in the UK about moving over while 2.8% were in contact with recruitment agencies. The UK was the first-choice country to move to for 9.3% of Bulgarians and 4.6% of Romanians.

    A survey in Romania for the programme, carried out by Gallup, found that 1.5% were in contact with people in the UK about moving over and 0.3% were in touch with recruitment agencies while 0.7% were looking for work independently.

    Work restrictions were placed on Romania and Bulgaria when they joined the European Union in 2007 but they end this year.

    The surveys of more than 1,000 people in each country must be treated with caution, according to analysts.

    Peter Flade, director of Gallup UK, told BBC Newsnight: "I think if you're looking at who's making concrete plans, say who's spoken for instance to a recruitment consultancy or who has a firm job offer, I think yes the sample sizes there are a bit small to say specifically who are the numbers who are coming."

    It comes as MPs prepare to debate the possible impact of immigration from Bulgaria and Romania.

    Conservative MP Mark Pritchard said: "EU migration has had a real impact on many communities throughout Britain. There are genuine concerns about the number of new Romanian and Bulgarian migrants likely to enter Britain when the transitional border controls are lifted later this year. EU migration has brought many benefits to Britain - but there are also dis-benefits.

    "This is a debate that needs to be had - and meaningful policies put in place to protect social cohesion, public services, and to restore public trust in a workable, credible, and well-managed migration and immigration system. The coalition Government has made good progress - but there is still more to do"..
    .
    . . What is the matter with our Politicians.???
    Get out of Europe Now before they drag us into their Cesspits
    How can 650 MPs destroy our country without the permission of 65,000,000 CITIZENS.???
