Yes...the whole world seems to be in an unholy mess. Yet our wonderful government and the opposition MP's too, think that their time is well spent on dealing with something like this.......a bit like Nero fiddling while Rome burned(and yes, I know this didn't actually happen, it is an apposite analogy).
The country can go to hell in a handcart, but our leaders concentrate on something which will benefit something like 2%(according to reports) of the population.
But then, railroading this bill onto the statute books is an easy ask...especially when the views of many people have not been considered(nothing new there either)...dealing with the failing economy, the problems in the EU......Welfare concerns, the drop in manufactruing growth, problems with the press.......all these things are difficult to solve...takes much more action to sort out these issues...lots of 'jawing' goes on, but the
action is strictly limited...nay, non existent.
So Eric, K to you for that. And this will be the last time I contribute to this thread. I have said all that I wish to say on the subject and if my opinions are not clear now...then, they never will be.
