old man Posted February 10, 2019 Report Share Posted February 10, 2019 HS 2? The lunacy and cost to run empty trains. Brexit Failure? Politicians with less intelligence than the rat in my outhouse. Graylings contingency ferry plan, awarded to a company with no ships? Now providing free global amusement, we have become the laughing stock of Europe and the World? What a wheeze?

Scully Posted February 10, 2019 Report Share Posted February 10, 2019 I doubt 100,000 million is a lot of money regarding the hospitals etc. The NHS alone could get probably get through that in a couple of weekends or so. Let's face it, whatever it costs, the likes of you or I aren't going to stop it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There and back the same evening for MPs attending a college dinner was good reason for laying the M40. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clakk Posted February 12, 2019 Report Share Posted February 12, 2019 How when 53% of this septic aisle have to resort to foodbanks can any politician justify such blatant prolific waste of taxpayers hard earned .The existing railways are worn out ,and due to stupidity run by private firms that couldnt run a bath.So what chance has HS 2 not so much a white elephant as a black hole that can only suck in money . Lets cut to the chase here westminsterus moronicus aint listening full stop, use the Merican model .If you build and create jobs than you get income tax and national insurance back instead of paying out dole. The new supercarriers need crews so hire them ,they need escort ships so build them.New ships need steel ,electronics ,engines,and equipment and the crews need uniforms and feeding and accommodation too. So big clangers to the EU ,only British companies to tender and build all those steel orders get Swansea /Port Talbot and Sheffield working .The Clyde can probably cobble some ship builders for you and when earning they need to spend locally ,a simple idea called investing in the future not investing in headlines for politicians . Just think how much this idea generates in income for HMG and its not so civil service ,we might be able to ring 999 and not be put on hold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really, 33 million people a week use food banks. I'm no lover of any political party and they've all taken turns at messing the country up but could you quantify that 53% figure please.
