Olympics

Well weeks of sport is coming to an end, the BBC staff have had a good free break in Rio and will soon be back to go on and on about what they saw during the games, and we the suffering public will have our TV's back to what might be called normal, I will say I am so pleased to see so many GB athletes oh not all of them are athletes, sailing, swimming and shooting  to name but a few, we can be very proud of them, I was so pleased to see the USA athlete in the 200 meters did not qualify and so justice ruled, how some one who has been caught using performance enhancing drugs not once but TWICE and he is still allowed to run, I would not allow it personally, but some of the associations have just bottled out and allowed cheats to participate, my wife was always glued to the TV watching the athletics, but no more when I asked her she said she can't trust any of them, a bit harsh on the clean competitors but she just dose not believe any of them now, it is sad to say that I am waiting to see if any of the competitors fail the tests at the games, personally as a bit of a cynic I am expecting some surprises but who knows, I just hope I am wrong, I have to say I am not belittling team GB I have a lot of faith in them and respect their efforts, they are a credit to this country, and I mean England,  Scotland, Wales and Ireland the United Kingdom, it has to be remembered that in four years time Team GB might just be England, Wales and Ireland, that is if some certain person in Scotland,  again try's to get another referendum to leave the UK!!, she just can't leave it alone!!, it just struck me the saying "the wicked witch of the North", it is a well deserved title!!!!.

Brexit

We now have one in six jobs being done by migrants, 5.4 million of the work force of 31.8 million, can this carry on? the population voted out and that was brought about by peoples worries about immigration, it seems that the most dramatic rise is by Romanians and Bulgarians, their numbers have increased by 45% a total now of 276,000 people these numbers have to be decreased soon we have to gain control of our boarders, if we are not careful many thousands more will chance their arm and arrive here and we as a country just can't cope, I have no problem with people coming to the  UK to work but many of the people coming are not educated so do not have much of a chance of getting work, many spend their time on the street causing problems for the police and the population, too many people argue that we should allow even more people into the country, that is just mad! we can't cope now, the strain on the education system is at breaking point, and the NHS ha no chance at all, so many young British people are unable to obtain social housing, how is that? much of the accommodation  where I live has gone to foreign nationals, and rented accommodation is non existent for many because of cost and to immigrants, so now we have so many people who you would expect have a right to this type of accommodation?  homeless in sheer desperation having to often live in very unsuitable accommodation they are often told to take unsuitable accommodation is take it or leave it!!, so they are in between the devil and the deep blue sea, that is not I believe that we should treat our young people, what life are many of them going to have, lack of proper accommodation, money and food, it is no wonder that some of our children are becoming un educated because of the way that their parent are made to live is not at all conducive to them gaining high education.
It is time to sort it pout!!!! now not in a few months soon.

Brexit and the NHS

I have spent a lot of time as an a hospital inpatient over the past 18 months, so I think I have the knowledge to comment on the fact that we are consistently being told that we have to import nurses from not only Europe but the World, we are told that the NHS would fall apart without them, is that true, the big question is why are our qualified nurses are choosing to leave the profession?, some emigrate to get better pay, some just leave the NHS and join an agency because the agency pays better than the NHS, so we  have these foreigner's taking their places, it is sad for me as I have difficulty understanding them as they do not speak English to well, I have been looked after by Russians, Romanians and al points east, they do not understand my name and are unable to say it, they have often made mistakes with my medication and |I have had to correct  them. it makes me laugh that when discharged and are asked to fill in a feedback form patients just put in that they were satisfied with the treatment they received because they just want to get the hell out of the hospital, and some are frightened to say anything just in case they have to be admitted again and they think that it might be remembered and the service they get the next time might be worse, so  we have  to import nurses but would it not be far better to train more nurses in this country and for once pay the nurses a proper wage  so that they do not need to leave the NHS and we will have a proper service.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         

Brexit

Now we have the BBC investigating Brexit and the reasons why the vote went the wrong way as far as the BBC is concerned, they in my mind can search every line possible to make an excuse for a leave vote, now it matters not what they think it is of no relevance, why are they speaking to Mendelson he has a lot to answer for when labour (Blair) was in power, he influenced Blair as did A Campbell, why do we need to have spin?, what is it in reality?, I think it is a made up story with little or no truth used to try and influence the voting public, the problem being is that so many believe the spin so it is used more and more, it is a nightmare really  because as it gathers speed more and more lies are produced till no one really knows just what the truth was at the beginning, it is in some ways like Chinese whispers, but with a reason for the original to be added to and hyped up, the people who believe that they are the responsibility to rule us just  can't take the fact that the general public had the nerve to vote out when they had told us to stay!!. Reality for these people is very hard to take and they are beside themselves with the result and will try anything to reverse the decision, they need to shut up and get on with the majority if they do not like that they could emigrate to some other country that needs to be bullied as the don't know what is good for them!!, I would welcome any of them who decided to leave, I would happily wave them good by !!!!.

Olympics

So the Olympics are up and running, people breaking world records by big margins,  with all the problems with drug abuse it makes you think!, may be I am doing some a disservice but I am anti athletes who are  caught using drugs should be banned for life none of this slap on the hand and reinstated in a short time, I was watching the swimming to  see that a Russian had been banned not once but twice, how is that?,  why was he even allowed to race it is a slap in the face to the other swimmers, it is not acceptable that this has been allowed to happen but of course the IOC have got no bottle they are frightened of MR P, they just dare not do anything to upset him so they passed the buck to individual associations for them to decide, they in turn bottled out and so we have convicted cheats being allowed to complete, the Russians just have to win no matter what, they see anything done against them a persecution by the west, they just can't accept evidence of their dastardly deeds, all drug abusers should be banned for life! no messing about, one appeal then out you go never to be allowed to complete  again, so it is with deep suspicion  that I have been watching the games never being sure that any of the athlete's are clean who knows????.  

Brexit

I see in todays press that a baroness is trying to get the Brexit result overturned, what is it with these people?, are they just stupid ?, or is it the old adage we know better than you, I just wish these people would give over, enough is enough we have had the vote so it is for the House of Lords to keep their noses out of it, god knows what damage they are doing with all these comments, the EU knows full well that they need to trade with us no matter what, why are people so worried about people already living in this country, can it be that the government will throw them out, I think not, and aa far as workers to work in the fields in this country would it not be possible for them to be seasonal works, come and work during the need for them then they return to their country of origin,  now please do not tell me that that is racist as I lived in West Germany  during the 19070's and there were what was known as "Guest Workers" they worked on a contract and when it was finished they went home or found another contract, many British  builders and other workers from other countries so why can't it work here?, all these things have to be considered, but some people have to realise that one and a quarter million people voted more than the IN campaign, Brexit was and is the vote we do not need pompous people who sit in the Lords to try and change a decision made by the people, they are un elected and should remember that!!!. 

Camerons List

So you do not have to be hard working charity worker, or a person who has given their all fund raising, or any thing that might be construed as giving something to the community, but no! you just  have to be a fashion advisor or any sort of crony that was a Cameron lackey and you receive an honour, all sorts but some who were supporters of the IN campaign in the EU referendum, that is sickening state of affairs,  it has belittled the honour system, future people recommended for an OBE or MBE would only see the  fact that being given the award by royalty as the only thing worthwhile about the award, I think that this list of his has destroyed the system and belittled the honour awards, only people who deserve one should be put forward for consideration and not just have one persons pick their best buddies its just not on!!!!.
