Sick of the way the UK is run?
Discussion
Politicians do look at public sentiment, to assess the amount of pissedoffness their new actions will create.
Given what has happened over the years in UK I guess they just assume "Well we got away with doing this (insert any the new law)and there wasn't even a wimper" "We can pretty much do whatever we want"
And they have.
Mad Hatter Party would appear to be your last option

Just face it, this country, once great, is no longer. Everything is owned by those who have no interest but profit, which would be fine, but they are all foreign!
Everyday I come across a surprise, which is now no longer a surprise.
My wife works for a financial company so I hear enough shocks there.
This last week there have been new electricity overhead cables being installed near her works. The area is overseen (ha ha) by good old British Southern Electric (base now would you believe in Perth) and, not surprisingly, part of the Scottish and Southern Energy Group (SSE).
I popped in to see my wife at work on Friday, expecting to see a row of SSE or Scottish Energy or Southern Energy vans and workers all ready to go.
Instead, I watched some Powerteam.eu.com vans arrive and begin installing these overhead lines.
ALL workers were of Malay appearance which, ok, no problem, but 'looked' odd when you expect good old British workmen to be scaling the poles.
Today, they are called back. Power going on/off in my wife's office. One of them came in and only words she could understand was 'it co in si dent' 'na problam'. Get the gist, can't speak a word of English... well, very little.
Just rung me. Trip switches going on an off still. 'course, like the worker said, might be a 'co-incidence' and nowt to do with the fact these new overhead lines have been installed.
UK (or is that now Yoo Kay?) today, eh?
Enjoy it while you can. V glad I'm not young.

Seem to be two issues here. Firstly the work wasn't of a decent standard (it appears) - no guarantee "British" workers would have done a better job, get some Poles in instead Everyday I come across a surprise, which is now no longer a surprise.

. Secondly, the communication afterwards - poor, and I'd have gone straight up the chain until I reached someone who could do something about it, but again there are plenty of Brits who would have fobbed off any complaint.Gassing Station | News, Politics & Economics | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
