Do not try to place the blame for your bad manners onto me thank you very much.
It was you that was being rude about the smelly types you have met in the job centre, not me.
Yes I have followed this forum for some time and yes I have crossed swords with forum members, but as far as I can remember I have never referred to any one as idiotic or smelly even less so because I have never met any one from the forum personally so to speak. And if the occasion ever arises where I have to go to the job centre I shall have the good wisdom to keep my opinions to myself until such times as they are asked for.
Incidentally yobbish behaviour and rudeness are nothing new and one can experience that pleasure in any walk of life, It is not exclusive to the unemployed. one does not have to be of a certain "Class" as we have plenty of examples of it from our so called "Betters", MPs, priests, footballers, entertainers, and so the list goes on. Where do you see your self in the great scheme?? not unemployed I hope.

20:4269854You voted Labour Brian - that means you are fully responsible for the mess we have got in over the last 13 years as well as the difficult measures that are now required to get us out of it.

Am still waiting for your reply, or can I assume that you lack the bottle to attempt a reply, knowing full well that you are just a glory seeker

09:0969903Jan, Post #16, sorry, you DID vote for this. You vote Labour, and what we are seeing is a result of that election folly. Don't blame what is happening on those trying to sort out the mess your lot left behind, please.
Jimmy, any chance that one day you might NOT be so aggressive and nasty towards the other posters on here? You can make your point just as easily and the message doesn't get lost amongst the insults. Ta
Bern, are you saying everyone is the same? Doh!
Peter, yes.

09:3269914While there is no excuse for the young work-shy often to be seen in job centre there are a couple of points to be considered on getting people back to work. One, that the reason so many jobs are advertised 'abroad' is that many companies prefer not to pay the minimum wage (and the fact that so many who work for less do so by living '10 to a room' shows why it is needed). Two, the vast majority of companies prefer to employ school-leavers (at the cheapest rates) rather than older, more experienced people. Until these problems are addressed those who suffer most from so-called 'back-to-work schemes will be those over thirty with families forced into part-time, low paid and usually unskilled work.
Politics, it seems to me, for years, or all too long, has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong.

I firmly believe that all people under 25 are wasters, the unemployed should be shot and then stabbed and then hanged, old people are irritating and need to be offered euthanasia, youths should be banned from all public places unless manacled and gagged, and anyone who disagrees with me should be sent to an island in the middle of the Red Sea without food and water and the resulting misery recorded and played back to the rest of us right-minded affluent workers who can eat popcorn and drool while we watch. And those of you who know me will recognise how true that it.

17:29703091. Well the Tories are at it again... they are now proposing not to introduce Labours plan of free parking at hospitals throughout the country claiming that as it wasn't their idea they are not actually committing any form of u-turn.Who will suffer the working classes who depend upon the NHS together with the lower middle classes.Who won't be affected are of course the rich who frequent private hospitals where the parking is free.
2. The Tories also plan to move the annual Queens speech from Autumn to Spring as it will fit in with their plans to have a fixed 5 year term parliament meaning that the next Queens speech won't be until 2012. Now I'm not too bothered but the Labour party (gasps in disbelief) have rightly critised the coalition for an obvious abuse of power and an affront to ol' Lizzie and breaking with tradition.
Old Grimond must be turning in his grave I won't mention Thorpe as apparently he did a lot of turning of the cheek when he was alive....so to speak!!

I think therefore I am (not a Tory supporter)

17:3670315Marek, you do try it on.
1. Hospital car park charges introduced during Labour's financially and socially disasterous tenure of government. Run that past me again..... "Who will suffer the working classes who depend upon the NHS together with the lower middle classes.Who won't be affected are of course the rich who frequent private hospitals where the parking is free."
Don't recollect all you lefties making a fuss when Labour brought the charges in. So, let's not be hypocritical please!
2. If the Queen's speech is moved from Autumn to Spring, surely the next speech will be 2011?
3. Thorpe, say no more, luv it!!!

17:4370319Marek, good points there in post 1, I voted UKIP!
I read the Dover Express yesterday: Read that many P&O jobs will be axed in Britain, including Dover. No outcry in the same paper!
Read: Many jobs to be axed in Kent Police. No outcry in same paper.
Read: District Council to make drastic spending cuts on services supplied to the community, includin job-axing at the Council. No outcry in same paper.
Read: Gurghas might be going back home with their families to Nepal because to expensive. Biig stink in same paper. promises of petition to 'save the Gurkhas!!!'
So, we British are just stupid and don't count, never count!
Touch a non British group, bis stink!
I, Alexander, will NOT sign for Gurkhas to stay!
But would sign for british people NOT to lose jobs in Britain!

17:4570323i remember there was a joke going around at the time of the jury going out in the thorpe case.
it was based on the premise that jezza had just been found guilty and had been sentenced and his retort.
i will have to give a lot of thought on how to phrase it suitable for the forum.
