I think this government has done plenty.
Our council tax bills have gone up alarmingly, for no better service.
If you do get to see a doctor, do get on a waiting list and finally get to hospital for an op, heigh ho you'll catch MRSA in one of our filthy hospitals.
Probably cant afford a dentist, but no matter, cant get one anyway.
Education, what education, the do gooders took away all forms of discipline in schools, so the poor teachers can no longer teach.
Tackle crime, well thats just a joke.Look after the criminals, let them out after a few weks, to commit the same crime again. Or put them inside and then pay them huge amounts of compensation because they dont have a privvy.
Positive things, oh yes we live in a very safe nanny state. Chop down all the horse chestnut trees so you wont die from a conker falling on your head, I am so relieved.Take down the swings, not safe.I could go but what is the point.
Haven't even mentioned the pensions crisis, the WAR or illegal immigrants.
The only people who prosper are the scroungers, the junkies, vandals and all the other criminal elements in our society and people who breed like rabbits, with no intention of providing a loving home for their offspring.
I for one will be mighty glad to see the back of the grinning ninny.0 -

I am disgraced by the amount of companies I give my business to that use Asian call centres. Whilst hearing an Asian accent on the phone doesn't confirm that the call centre is in Asia, it's a fair assumption to make if all the voices in the back ground also have Asian accents and on calling the company for a 2nd, 3rd, 4th time you speak to a person with an Asian accent each time. It isn't good for the economy & I cannot understand why it is allowed. I know why companies do it, why pay pounds in the UK for a service you can have for pennies in Asia. I am losing count of the number of 0870 calls I've terminated with the phrase "I'm not being rude, I know you're doing your best but I really cannot understand your accent & you are having difficulty understanding mines". I'd love to boycott companies who do this, but it's so difficult to know who does & who doesn't, they don't exactly advertise it do they? And so many at it now I imagine I'd have a hard time finding companies who don't in order to give them my business.
Is there a site on the net to 'name & shame'? Although to be fair a lot of smaller companies are pushed into it to remain competitive.0 -

And that's just the call centres in Glasgow.

I saw a program recently on global warming of all, things and it mention up and coming countries such as India. Some of these call centres and now give workers English speaking so that they can fool customers into believing they are English.
