When did America die, I have some thoughts

The Day Britain Died: 05.07.1945

Clement Atlee and Labour won the election and we have been going downhill ever since. The welfare state has never worked. Instead of the Government telling the people how to live their lives we should be allowed to make our own decisions. We have to increase the income tax threshold to £10,000, make private healthcare tax deductible and give tax breaks to those with private pensions. Labour now claims more people now have jobs than any time in history. They convieniently ignore that that a large percentage of the un-employed have been booted over to 'disability' benefits and therefore don't count!!! The poorest members of society must be protected but not to the extent that they milk the system and have no inducement to do otherwise. The Polish (et al) have shamed Britain with their desire to work, showing up how lazy and un-skilled we have become. Unless there is a serious change in how Britain functions we are doomed to a future of becoming a sad and pathetic nation. The greatest nation in history is being reduced to a laughing stock. We have to start electing the right people to run our country and I don't mean some numpty who has spent half his life kissing ass in the political system. Political service should be a duty, not an easy little career. Too many of our so called political class have never done a days 'honest' work in their lives and as a consequece we are suffering. Until we start electing people not party clones we don't stand a chance, this applys to all political parties in the free world. Either we stand up for our rights or we die!!

But for now just ponder Theo
