I don't buy it about the NHS, Lex. If we stopped immigration and all the hangers on that they bring, we wouldn't need so many staff. We should also stop trying to be a world health service. I also think it wrong to poach NHS staff from developing countries when we should be training our own.

I see that our excremental, numerically challenged Chancellor, has opened the door to tax rises for defence rather than cut her outrageous spending.

We seriously need reform in this area. However, Labour won't carry it out as most of their voter base claims one or more benefits.

Benefits should not be a lifestyle choice, and those who have not contributed should not be able to claim under any circumstances. We are far too soft as a country.

I was between jobs and I requested my NI stamp be paid for two months. - It was refused, as a result my State pension is slightly lower than it should be. But of course, I'm a white, working class, heterosexual, male!

Unfortunately, that is the perception nowadays with race, gender & identity nowadays - everything that's wrong with the world is the personal fault of WHMs (White Hetrosexual Males - we deserve an acronym too!).

Sadly, the frustration has now spilt over into violence - which is our fault, according to the ideologists. If we are all actually seen to be treated equally, with one group not being put another (any spot the irony?), maybe this situation wouldn't be as bad.
