Truss... Oh dear !

Pow-Lo

Make civil the mind, make savage the body.

Well Liz Truss had said she has no intention of helping people out, apart that is from her rich friends who will benefit most from tax cuts
She actually said that, or that’s your interpretation of what she said? I’ve read that she’s going to cut taxes and put NI back to where it was.

a) Mrs T, David Cameron

b) Ben Wallace. Also, Kemi Badenoch but in about ten years, if she carries on the way she’s going. Excellent prospect, just a little too young and inexperienced at this time.
Why did you rise to this ?

That's a bit below the belt....

Obviously he gets excited at the thought of a sexually attractive politician, but at the moment his hand is u/s, so there's no need to remind him he can't treat himself to a nifty fifty two stroke.

Cutting taxes and putting back NI where it was doesn't help people who don't earn enough to pay taxes or NI it only helps those high earners who pay a lot of tax

Which is absolutely no help at all for folk on minimum wage, universal credit, disabled and OAP's, or in other words any of the folk who are be living a third world life in a 1st world country
I know Woman is gonna struggle this winter.. Poor cow cannot get around much so is even starting to feel the chill now... Its gonna be a case of shutting up most of the house and just concentrating on keeping the front room and her bedroom up to temp
I will be ok cos I am still active and do not mind wearing a coat or what ever in the house

I just read that last post and it really reads as poor hard done by me thing
It was not meant to be
I still have assets that can be flogged, and every chance I can blag a sponsored trip to Beni this winter..

It was to point out that folk not as lucky as us, who have a breadline income are not being helped by Truss's proposed policies
The way things are looking at the moment, many MANY people will endure real hardship not only this winter but winters to come

A thing popped up on fb the other day regarding a guy challenging Government Officials & Police etc over Covid being a plot to kill pensioners, their argument was that Covid hadn’t killed the required amount so they hime up energy costs so pensioners cannot afford them & die.

It occurred to me that this energy crisis could quite easily be construed as a cynical way to force us to lower our energy usage as part of the net zero agenda.

I've heard in the past the NHS waiting lists served the same purpose. Older people died before they had to spend money on expensive treatment to make them better.

Over two years ago Bev had her shoulders xrayed, she was told “you need two replacement shoulders” since then she was sent to a specialist who sent her for aqua therapy which made the condition worse, the aqua physio then referred her to a surgeon who couldn’t be arsed seeing her & left it to a junior Doctor who prescribed ineffective pain killers, she then got to see another Surgeon who was very abrupt to the point of being rude, he sent her for a blood tests (wtf) when they returned clear he sent her for more xrays, she now has another appointment with him mid September, not holding my breath.

A blood test for shoulder issues:eek:

I wish I could remember the blood test story.
Result was something like...
Your daughter's pregnant your wife is having an affair and that stuff doesn't stop leaks in a radiator.
