However, there was a lot of truth in it!
I wasn't quoting from an e-mail or anything else in particular.........it just seems crazy that the old folk of this country can be cold, lonely and hungry while the miscreants(and that is just me being diplomatic) are looked after admirably....and all this is paid for by our taxes, whilst these old folk have to sell their homes to pay for their care. It just seems to me that society has its' values a bit skewed.
