Most MP’s do a sterling job for their constituents and work extremely hard. Odd, don’t you think, that the Fees Office responsible for sanctioning the ‘sensationalized’ expenses have yet to be made answerable to taxpayers – those who pay their wages.

Land Tax, especially on swathes reportedly held by monopolizing supermarkets would inevitably be passed back to customers.

Whilst it’s far cheaper to renovate existing empty dwellings, the proposed controversial ‘Eco towns’ are, many believe, designed to benefit ‘government selected bodies’.

Its the way most Management Consultants work, and then charge the Company a fortune for the report.

Those working at the bottom of any organisation usually know whats wrong, along with their line Managers, but the Directors never ask them, on the basis that they think they know nothing, as they are not Directors.

Did not make any comment yesterday on MP’s pay as I was taking in the sunshine on the South Coast.

The thought did cross my mind though, that whilst watching my little grandaughter splashing around in the sea and running around on the sand along with thousands of others with not a care in the World, what sort of legacy this generation is leaving them with.

Massive debt, rising crime (it reallty is) increasing drug use, more expensive higher Education, a probable limited National Health Scheme (post code lottery). The continual poisoning of our Planet with toxic waste etc. Wars all over the World, and a Restraint on personal freedom.

No, I am not one usually to dwell on these things too much at all, I do regard myself as a positive thinker for most of the time, in running your own Business you have to.

But we really have failed, and failed the next generation in a big way, and to a degree it is our Politicians who have been in part responsible for this, as they have set the rules, the debts, the services, and the laws under which we all live.

Yes the population at large can vote them out, but only after they have done the damage, and very often its too late.

So Do MP’s deserve a pay rise ??
Absolutely not !!!!

But I would be in favour of perhaps giving them a bonus,
If they could:
Reduce the National debt.
Reduce our balance of payments deficit.
Really reduce Crime.
Reduce Regulation.
Really improve the National Health System.
Really improve the Education system for all.

It sounds sad, but I feel life has become far too complicated now with regulations on everything.

Let us break free once more, and give the future generations something to really look forward to with some sensible political decisions.
