Dear Santa.....

[BlackenedBiker]

I would like for Christmas this year:

• A 12 month contract at a decent rate
• Regulation of the recruitment industry
• A virulent strain of swine flu to sweep through the political "elite"
• World peace
• 2 Mountaineering holidays
• A warm summer without 40 days continuous rain
• England not to go out on penalties in the world cup

Thanks so much

How are the 'political elite' (oxymoron of the day) to regulate the recruitment industry if they're all off sick with swine flu?

Political elite are abject failures:

They are all private schooled pampered self serving types who have managed to alienate the electorate to such an extent that it is too much of a chore to leave the house to vote for them. And that suits them just fine.

Based on performance, if they were an animal they would be put down for their own good.

I would like to see a plumber from Truroe, a bobby from Cheltnam, a doctor from Hertfordshire and a biochemist from Hampshire involved in politics. Involved in policy making for people that they understood.

People with experience and careers outside of Westminster.

Policy by the people for the people.

(NB: This is not a party politically biased rant, all sides of the house are equally guilty of this and have been for many years)

I'd settle for a 1/3/6/12 monther

I'll settle for the little bastards that broke into my campervan last night haning by piano wire from the nearest lamppost.

Tough on crime, tough on the causes of crime

Anyone who messes with another man vehicle should be executed.

I had to sell my 350Z due to 2 cases of vandalism costing ME £1800

I feel your pain

I think we would benefit from a few more "independents" becoming MPs.

The sad fact is that not enough people will vote for somebody who isn't already a "celebrity".

Yes, some twat drove into my TT in a carpark a couple of months after I got it without leaving a name/number.

That cost a pretty penny - it didn't "just buff out"

Somebody bashed into Mrs Tester’s car in the car park outside one of the care homes she runs and didn’t leave a note behind. Security cameras revealed the perpetrator to be a trainee nurse earning about 800 euros per month. Perpetrator didn’t know that Mrs Tester happens to be Group Head of nursing. Now I always thought of Mrs Tester as a kindly type, but I learned then that she can be quite ruthless. I still haven’t forgiven her for sacking the poor girl, but she insists ‘driving off after an accident is a criminal offence and we can’t have criminals working in this company’. Evil Mrs Tester; that dent cost less than the average pair of shoes lying unused in the bottom of her wardrobe.

Mind you, if it’d been my Merc I’d have dreamt up a fitting punishment too.

Don't you oppress them! They're only expressing their frustration at a society that doesn't respect their individuality and their right to do exactly as they damn well please.

Rather than punish them they should be rewarded for manifesting their feelings.

You beast!
