does this mean my sicknote will run out then .. the one that said indefinate ..
This may indeed be the case however if they are genuine then im sure they will still receive their benefits.
All I can say Turkish is that you must have lived in some sort of different dimension in the 80's if you have never seen the country in a worse state.. either that or as I suspect you are simply a blinkered Tory?
But which opposition .. the lib dems, UKIP, SNP, Plaid Cymru, Independent, Unionists, SDLP, DLP. Sinn Fein, Conservatives, Green, plus the many more small parties there are ..
I can only say i never noticed it in the 80's so couldnt have been that bad however i notice it very well now and so do all of my friends,family, and work mates.
Actually i kind of like the Lib Dems, but feel it would be a wasted vote. I believe its between Labour and Conservative so not much choice only one i can consider.
Hang on here.. first you say it's not right that people should go through this sort of thing.. but then you find out that the tories sickness plans are more rigid..so you change your tune...
You didn't notice there was over 3 million people unemployed for most of the 1980's. It was in all the papers at the time.
why it might be your vote that changes everything .. so should vote for what you believe ..
Its called Decietfull i think.Hang on here.. first you say it's not right that people should go through this sort of thing.. but then you find out that the tories sickness plans are more rigid..so you change your tune...
thats no surprise Turkish since I saw that pic of you pimping your son out to shake John Majors hand
Yes i was but its appears much more evident to people today.
I guess that were it all began.thats no surprise Turkish since I saw that pic of you pimping your son out to shake John Majors hand
back in the 80s there wasnt the same media representation as there is today ... back in the 80s all you knew was what was told on the radio, the news and in newspapers .. now 25/30 years later we have the internet and access to more newspapers .. but will say this .. i was 16 in 1983 ...and even i knew what state the country was in .. so you must have led a sheltered life through the 80s then ..
I was much younger then and to be honest probably didnt take a lot of notice but really cant remember so many people as concerned as they are now.
Yes i remember that very well, but believe its going to be worse now and believe the effects of this government have only just begun and worse to come. Pay freezes etc and peoples jobs at great risk,which will lead to many loosing their homes, we are far from out of this recession all caused by this Labour government and all the borrowing. Young people cant even get on the property ladder.well Negative Equity was a big star back then, if i remember correctly.
It was bad then. It wasn't unusual for people to made redundant 2 or 3 times during the 1980s. I know people have concerns today, but we don't want to see a return to anything like the 1980s.
