A generous offer .... howerver, thanx, but no thanx.

Sorry for hijacking this thread, but you are all no doubt sitting on the edge of your seats waiting for the results of today's Onatario General Election ... I've been following it all night. And it looks like we have another Liberal (Lib-Dem, sort of) government with the NDP (Labour, more old than new) making gains. And it is a minority govt. That should keep the buggers honest ... or, as close to being honest as politicians can be

Don't hold your breath on that one.

Thing is, from what I read on here, good old blighty has been sharing too much with folks that roll up to the door, cap in hand, no knowledge of English, and a large extended family to feed.

That's a pretty fair assessment.
We give to the wrong people......we treat prisoners better than pensioners.

I am half way through watching four 40min videos, produced by Aljazeera, explaining how world financial meltdown happened.
It is well worth watching - it shows that greed by a few individuals has brought the world to its knees.

Can't be bothered to watch it.

Was it those dirty Jews, who done it, and caused the world's economy to collapse?

Just a wild guess, aided by the tv station who made the programme.
