The Election SNP

Just who does the SNP think they are??, they lost the vote last year but now the leaders are saying that they will defeat democracy by pushing the Labour leader as Prime Minister, what gives them the right to override the three other nations involved in the vote, they plan to break up the UK in a different way now that the vote is lost, now they will force Labour to allow them special treatment and an extra budget of £148 Billion just where would this money come from, reality says that if you owe money you have to pay it back in the end, we lived the high life when Labour were last in power are we going to go through it all again when their policies sink us into the mire, dare we allow Labour to get in?? can we the three quarters of this country called the UK allow one party with the backing of a party who without a doubt hate the lot of us but more specifically the English, the grass on the other side always looks greener but we well know that it isn't can you afford top take the chance, it matters that you vote for any Party but at this moment in time not Labour!!!!.

Cancer

Cancer, we all know how difficult life is for people who have any kind of cancer but why should they be seen quicker than any one else, many other illnesses need very quick treatment or you might die, so why is it that so much emphasis on this one condition, many do recover some will die, for all of my life time cancer research has begged money for their work, billions of pounds have been donated, the drug companies are the only people to benefit from this research, when they find a drug beneficial for a certain cancer the cost of the drug is momentous, meaning that rationing has to happen, drugs costing several thousands of pounds each month become unavailable through the NHS, all people in this country who have a condition needs to be seen and looked after not just one condition getting a better deal than all the rest.

The World

It is sad today to see all the problems of death and destruction in the world, much of it done as religious terrorism, as far as terrorism is concerned we in the UK a pretty safe, we do not suffer as much as people in other parts of the world, we are lucky we can walk the streets in some safety and have the right to say what we feel within reason, but many have not a hope in their own countries, they are limited to what they might say, whatever you might say can and often does bring retribution, possible death usually in a terrifying way, how can this be in todays day and age, it seems that half the world has progressed forward in leaps and bounds, but in others it has gone back to the dark ages, democracy is not allowed, criticism of the ruling people can bring nasty treatment not only for the alleged  offender but his/her family as well, beheading, stoning and throwing people of the top of buildings, we see this and sit on our hands and say its their problem but its not it is everyone's, the world has to decide just what is acceptable or not and ensure that the world conforms to the rules and enforce the rules with out fear.

NHS Food

I know that we should be thank full for the service that we receive at times in our local hospitals, but there is a flaw in the care you receive, one of the most important things needed for recovery is good food that is quality, nutritious and looking just what they are supposed to look like, unfortunately many hospitals have gone over to cook chill food, from experience an 8 day stay in a hospital that is cook chill, what was my experience?, the food was disgusting, it looked disgusting, tasted disgusting, and the look on the plate was disgusting, so does hospital food assist in your recovery??, not a chance, I saw families bringing in food for patients because they just could not eat the food, some patients loose a considerable amount of weight when they are an inpatient the longer they are in the worse they get, it is just not on, James Martin the TV chef has been campaigning for several years about this problem, he has come up with some very acceptable food for hospitals, some will take this on and for once meet their commitments to the patient, some won't, do you know just what food you are likely to get?, because if you don't you just might get a very nasty surprise if you should be admitted to hospital.

Thoughts

Is any one else fed up with all the bull S**t on the telly about how well that all the MP's are going to look after all of us, just who do they think they are kidding, they have no intention of looking after us at all they may be think that is what they will do, but the whips will make sure they will do as they are told no matter what they might feel, when we elect people to represent us we are not, we are electing the party alone, it is like being in the army you follow orders, it matters not what might be best for your electors that matters not, we are ruled by faceless wonders who pull the strings, the job is not as well paid as everyone thinks so is it no wonder that they take on other jobs, the party system maybe is right but the only people who come out of it smelling of roses are public school pupils, who unfortunately have not the slightest idea as to how the normal person on the street lives, they have not the slightest idea as to the stress that they live under so consequently have no idea as to how to represent them in Parliament, I will be glad not to have to see all these self gratification clips on the news and go back to seeing real news.

Eastern Europe

Am I mistaken or has the little man been involved in another problem in Moscow, how can it be that a known dissident is murdered on the street, can be killed allegedly  by his own people as the little man insists, who ever it was they made sure he was dead no hope of recovery to embarrass the killers or killer, why should he die, what ever could be the reason, well he was about to lead a demonstration against the government, his complaint is that one man should not hold the power that the president of Russia does, he was about to bring this into the worlds press, so it seems to me that his own people would not be at all likely to kill him so who else is in the picture, if you take logic in to account who would be unhappy about this demonstration? well only one actual person, and possibly the high command in Russia, they would have the motive and the people who would carry out instructions to the letter, I am sure that one person made this decision, after all no one is allowed to speak against him, no freedom of speech no right at all in a what is only a dictatorship, one person rule!, one person decision, I will do as I want the rest of you be dammed!!, watch out the West!!.

Disability

I have spent some time sorting and buying a mobility scooter that can be taken onto trains, I found one and was very pleased, I, once a month go to Manchester so I contacted East Coast Trains who I usually book passenger assistance from, I use their trains to Leeds then Trans Pennine Express to Manchester, it is no problem with East Coast my scooter is acceptable, but to travel on Trans Pennine Express you have to have a permit, they do not charge for it but you have to apply for it, unusually not on line,  you have to fill in a hard copy so you have to wait for it to arrive then fill the form in and send it back, again I was quite shocked to find out that they decide if they will allow you to travel, so here I am waiting for this form but it is of no help at this moment in time as I was to travel on Thursday this week but I can only travel on TPE Trains  if I dismantle the scooter and load it onto the  train as luggage, I did point out that I was disabled  that was why I need assistance, the scooter is needed this week  because of my ability to walk any distance has deteriorated but no good, no permit no travel, so good to be a disabled veteran.
