Well I have to say that Gordon Brown is making a right arsehiole of it at the moment.

Instead of giving all this money to the fatcats to squander, why didn't he

1. Invest in builders all over the country to build more prisons and create work and lock up the evil bastards that seem to be in our society these days.

2. Invest in hospitals by creating Matrons and having more nurses available to the matrons. Once again creating new jobs, and stop us worrying about having to go into hospital.

3. make people who haven't got jobs and are sponging on the giveouts, join the forces and learn trades and help the forces out. More jobs.

4. Give the police the powers back again and stop all this thuggery thats going on and put them in the new prisons. Also provide double the police force who would have to be on the beat.

Anything but shore up the fatcats that must be laughing their heads off at Gordons Xmas presents.

I'll get me soapbox
