I am an extremist myself I suppose, an extreme moderate.

Simple view, you work for a living, pay your taxes and make sure those taxes go to those who cannot work, not those who choose not to.
That is my philosophy too Swimfeeder.

I am very disappointed that it has.

I may start one on Pansies or Violas?

That is the choice I have today in my garden.

The way things are, no doubt someone will get upset about that as well.

No criticism of you Meg, you have a job to do.
Apologies Gibbs I have requested another Mod removes the OT posts to the Trash Can .

Re: My MP Owen Paterson

Just a thought here ...

Instead of a certain person always just trashing the government with caustic oneliners in true spamming style would it better if instead he told us what is so good good about the opposition , the nasty snotbag party?
Who knows he might win me over as I'm not allied to any particular party.

Makes two of us then!!!

Ok you want some answers - here goes:

1. I want abolition of the House of Lords to be replaced with directly elected second chamber.

2. I want abolition of the Monarchy to be replaced with a directly elected President

3. I want reform of the House of Commons arcane and archaic procedures.

4. I want ALL MPs to be full time and banned from taking on other work during their term of office. They should also be banned from taking on any work allied to their term of office for a further TWO YEARS beyond the end of their term of office.

5. Ditto Civil Servants - they are to be bannned from taking on any role associated with their duties as civil servants for two years beyond the end of their contract. Thus ending the revolving door between public duty and private business.

He'd get very short shrift from me and would be wearing my walking stick in a very uncomfortable and painful place and would be left with a pronounced limp.

It's not quite what I was expecting... a personal manifesto.
