[Waterlily]

Sorry people, I am so incensed at this guy's appointment, I just had to share one more thing. NO more, I promise!

Is he one of Prince Charles's buddies - doesn't he believe in homeopathy, as well as talking to his plants?

Another millionaire fantasist to add to Cameron's lunacy.

Julie .... despairing of the mess we got ourselves into when this country fell for the Cameron/Clegg propaganda prior to the last General Election.

I have to say since they have come into power my life has been a living hell in regard to the DSS. I wonder how many suicides and homless this govenment will be happy with?

Won't be voting for them ever again.

But theyre all just as bad as each other. They all promise this and that,but its all lies to lure us into thinking that they will make things better, and to vote for them. This particular government is SO hellbent on making it a country for the rich. How selfish is that? What I want to know is, when theyve squeezed us dry of any financial help and theyve cut this back and cut that back, where is all this extra money going to go? Id say its going into their pockets as MORE "expenses". Loadsa money does NOT make you happy, mr cameron and all your other greedy cronies.

One thing for sure, the money isn't going to bringing down the cost of living for the average person! About 4 week ago, diesel here was 138.9 a litre, now we're up to 146.9! They brought it down by a few pence then bumped it up double of what it had been brought down. I need my car to get out anywhere, our nearest supermarket which sells petrol is 6 miles away, so false economy to go there just for petrol, if I'm passing I try to fill up then, but not very often. Plus all this worry with the benefits, my car is a motability car, so if or probably when I lose my DLA, that's my car gone as well! No way will I be able to afford another one for a long time. So I will be relying on the 2 local taxi companies with 3 cars between them, and having to wait ages for one to be available! Rant over for now, I'm worried sick about the benefits change, I wish I could just get m appointment over and done with and know where I stand. IF they do it in alphabetical order of surname, mine's 'S' so I'll be waiting a long time.
