AT LONG LAST!
A LABOUR PARTY
now back to it's roots - but A NATIONAL GOVERNMENT
would have brought JUSTICE to bear on the PUBLIC
PENSIONS SCANDAL.
It is
obvious that the Labour Party are looking to an
early general Election and therefore putting their
own interests uppermost in mind rather than that of
all the people at this time of crisis and of
the sacrifice which must be shared equitably by all
the people of the NATION AT LARGE.
There is no place
in our community for an ELITE which is offered
special treatment in the matter of gold-plated
pensions and invariably a much greater job security
than that which is experienced in the PRIVATE
SECTOR.
The architects of
LABOUR must be turning in their graves at the
blatant injustice of the taxpayers having to suffer
the extra burden in order that the public sector
workers can enjoy their rich pickings under the
cover of their supposed inadequate earnings outside
the private sector.
What must happen is
that the public sector workforce must be reduced
significantly. QUANGOS alone, result in a
significant drain on the already ballooning debt of
the nation and unless each
QUANGOS can justify its
existence and numbers before an ALL PARTY COMMITTEE
of the HOUSE OF COMMONS then the entity should be
closed down and NO special payments given simply
because they are employed by the GOVERNMENT.
EVERYONE must bear
the burden. There can be NO special exceptions for
ANYONE. Only by following this JUST ACTION
will there be a togetherness of purpose to see us
all through the coming deep RECESSION.
As in wartime the
majority of the people worked together and became
more aware of what were the most important things in
life. Many things were scarce but this resulted in a
fitter nation and a more caring nation. The
gross materialism particularly over the past 13
years has brought an anything goes society with no
respect for the once values and conventions which
made our country a watchtower of FREEDOM and LIBERTY
to the world beyond.
To be blunt we feel
it would be to the betterment of the NATION and its
PEOPLE if the ordeal we all have to share gives us
time to reflect on our once good fortune and the
need to experience the hardships which the recession
will bring which will be nothing compared to that
experienced by many living today who went through
the Second World War.
Out of trial
and tribulation we all be the better for our ordeal.
Our selfishness and gross materialism will we hope
be greatly curbed. We shall all realise that there
are many things in life which cost
NOTHING and in
the frantic scrummage to greater wealth and
possessions our lives pass by and it is over before
we have had time enjoy the fruits of a fulfilled and
happy life.

US. -
