And Then, Camps…

   Y’all will have seen in the ‘news’ that another{?} unused army camp will be modernised to home a bunch of gimmigrants. Just a thought, but why hasn’t this been done in the near past to home our own homeless ex-military folk who served their country and are, sadly, homeless and living on the streets? Do that and in right quick order the supermarkets will spot a market and move in with a mini mart, right? Then a pub. Then their individual skills would come to light helping each other and possibly advertising those skills to the wider population and setting up as lekkys and plumbers an’ such and very soon it would become a thriving, happy village type community. Oh, and let’s not forget half a dozen barbers...
   Worth mentioning to our prime puppet who, I think, declared he’d sort out homeless street sleeping by Christmas.
   Another thought wot’s never asked on televisual ‘news’ shows when interviewing grubbyment folk regards these asylum seekers and that is what happens to any wot get their asylum ‘claim’ granted? Are they turned out of the hotel or camp they’re currently in to find their own digs and employment to pay for said digs or are they slotted straight onto benefits and paid for digs for the forceable future? Let me think about that...

“The homeless often feel invisible, allowed to plummet through widening holes in the social safety net, then hidden in doorways from which people avert their eyes."

And Then, Another Repeat…

   Still here and looking forward to tomorrow and the budget to see wot it’s going to cost us all down here.
Sorry, I’m repeating myself with another old one...

   While visiting another dimension earlier today, I thought of a cunning plan. A cunning and childish plan. So childish be the cunning plan that it may well baffle the boys and girls of the Lower Sixth.
   What do the boys and girls continually tell us all down her? That school children have no wish to learn. Our workers have no wish to advance. Our benefits system is too generous. Nobody wants to 'put out' to 'get on'.
So lets simplify things by having just two tax rates, say 15% and 30%. The object of the game would then be to get a job and really put out and fight for promotion so's to break through the high tax bracket.
   'What?' I hear you say, 'Who wants to work hard just to pay more tax?' And therein lies the rub of this cunning plan. A total reverse of the system, see? Because it'll be the low paid wot pay 30% tax! Study, work hard and fight for advancement to get that rise and get to keep more of your money as your income increases and you break into the 15% tax bracket.
   There you have it; now that's what I call rewarding effort with an incentive to achieve and keep on achieving so you don't risk getting bumped back to the 30% zone.
   Kids studying like fury to get all the knowledge and good sustificates, I say again, good sustificates, they can to give themselves the best chance out there in wonderland and minimise their time paying 30% Tax. Workers giving it their all to win promotion or working all the overtime there is to get into the 15% tax bracket thus getting to keep more of their money to spend on stuff. Stuff that needs to be made/built, creating more openings and overtime for other people making/building stuff, creating more people in the 15% bracket giving them more money to spend on stuff, creating more demand, creating more openings and overtime for stuff makers/builders. Win – win – win out there in the world while our educational standards reach dizzying heights of excellence.
   Told you it was a tad childish. But...

And Then, Education, Education…

   Well, so, y’all have obviously noticed the reporting by our BGBC, the British Governmental Broadcasting Caliphate regards the ‘mostly peaceful’ demonstrations by students in France demanding more spending on their education, right? You notice anything regards the troubles from the various film clips wot are broadcast? To me it would appear from the clips I’ve seen on the televisual receiving device that very phew of ol’ whitey go to university over there...
