Don't blame me, I voted UKIP!

You vote a government into power, any government, doesn't matter which party, and the reason you vote is that people who're smarter than you (or I) run things so that they work properly. Well. as far as I can make out ever since the hideous Thatcher years every political regieme seems to've been populated by the sort of greedy, gullible idiots that fall for the "Nigerian Princess" scam. I mean we'd have been better off putting Bernie Madof in charge of treasury.

My point is, when the !*%^@~?** are we going to strart taking these fly-by-nights to task for their profligacy with our money. I don't remember being asked if it was allright for them to put my pension fund in some tin-pot bank in Iceland!

The Euro is a joke, any fool can see that when the weakest ones of a collective fail-and their are always some who'll just not make the grade-everybody else gets dragged down with them sooner or later. Each country should have its own coinage and have control over it's exchange rates, I mean, it's down in dolly's class. I thought that was what a free market was.

The other crippling and equally asinine mistake to make was to completely eradicate our manufacturing base. Things are going to get worse before they start getting better and to leave ourselves as a whole country in the position of being unable to even mine the coal to smelt the ore let alone have a place where "things" are actually "made" is complete insanity. We bloody started the industrial revolution and now we're just the managers office.

Wake up, we've got to start readying ourselves for being able to create things again, we've got to shut the doors on this influx of every Tom, Dick and Harry who feels hard done by where they come from. WE CANNOT GO ON AS WE ARE. Why should we suffer for the avarice and incompetance of those we vote for. I've never had a credit card in my life, nor will I, if I haven't got the money then I've got to find a way to earn it or do without, it doesn't hurt, honest.

If you were as poor at your respective job (assuming you have one!) as those you vote in to run the country you'd be down the road with your tools on your back, as they say. Give me one good reason why we should suffer from the political mismanagement that is rapidly turning this country into some South Seas Banana Republic!?
