Nov 10th Nationwide public sector strike.

The problem we dont have enough public money to pay for the pensions of people whove already retired and we cant offer the same pensions and retirements to those who expect the same as that offering in the past.

this will eventually just lead to redundancy’s

as basically were living beyond our actual economic means, most of the value of the country has been pushed into overvalued house prices and public sector jobs, and exported to foreign companies. To little of exportable or actual tangible economic value is being generated, hence the slow withdrawal of the money that is finding/distilling its way into fewer and fewer international corporate hands, who’ve had most of the benefit of the value increase in things, since the privatisation period of the 80’s, sadly if we correct the books and become fiscally prudent and prop up and reinforce the idea of value in our currencies, preventing inflation or currency collapse, it would involve pay freezes for generations or axing large swathes of public services, take your pick and then no-one in those sectors can really afford a family life in britain. so whichever way living standards are getting worse or unemployment higher.

go watch the film : a trillion pound horror story

And tell me if you think 46% of the population can afford to pay taxes, to support the other 54% of the population ?

This isn’t just a standard situation, where union hardball tactics will work, this time it will be, deal with NO or redundancy’s and further economic collapse will ensue, the only people who can afford to negotiate for protection of pensions and increase to salarys etc, are those people who understand totally the finances of the business they work in and know that theyre is room for such increases, public sector workers just assume taxpayers will always fold, and accept rolling more debt onto the national debt pile, but soon the debt will get to the runaway point whereby we can’t pay the interest even and once that day arrives we’re totally fucked as a nation, currency devaluation inflation, all savings will become diminished so the increase in wages you went for will be worthless, because the money you get extra will be worth less, than the amount before the increase overall.

I mean if were prepared to write off / default on the National debt Pile then fine we can get back to economic growth, but otherwise the debt is going to cripple us slowly, then kill us, devaluing our currency, making any savings pointless. People will pile into a property bubble to retain some value, then no-one will be able to buy property, worse than the state were in now, and there will be a property collapse and then all the remaining value will dribble away and the open border european policy will mean that any remaining wealthy non debt laden cultures in europe will come in and clear up.

this situation has to be very carefully judged to avoid the bad possible outcomes, this strike wont acheive anything.

The state has been wasting our money for decades. Weak politicians have bribed voters with endless amounts of borrowed cash. As a result, in 2010 the interest on the national debt will cost £42.9 billion a year. That’s more than we spend on defence, and not much less than the entire education budget. £900billion and counting, some estimates the total debt at £4.8 trillion.

“GOOD HONEST BROADBAND ?”

lets have a look what does the star clause reveal :

It’s postcode monetary prejudice folks, if you live in the countryside you must be rich ? well obviously if we follow that now logical conclusion ?! that all rich second homers have displaced the poor in the countryside it might be fair? but it isn’t this is just plain prejudice. was thinking some older relatives broadband but this price fascism mean it costs £12.99 a month, not £6.49 a month. forget plusnet.

talk talk broadband, hmm want to check availability, well see what the clause is with that :

Regardless of the merits of this routine ? which I personally from an aesthetic sense, think is typically American all gusto strength display, overactivity and and no subtlety or tempo change ? RARARA! But if I was in that Audience, I would have taken a paddle to all those girls screaming and shouting in a competition at the top of their lungs like banshees. Do you have no manners or self restraint at all ? Is this what american values teach you to do when in a competition audience of any kind ? did you consider the people around you ? or were you blind to their views on your screaming? To be honest this sport is beginning to look like gymnastics floor work without the tumbling ? I truly appreciate the fitness of the individuals involved which is an achievement, but somehow it comes off as plastic and cheesy looking, health can be created by slow movement as well as fast movement take a look at tai-chi for instance, But I guess I’m not supposed to be looking at this sport video right ? because this scene seems like ‘child beauty pageants’ where the audience is totally composed of the competitors or the relations / hangers on ?

birthdays:

The 80’s were not an era limited to black and white, contrary perhaps to the understanding of some people under the age of 20 today ? :)m Makes you wonder whether its possible for ages to be become relatively more antiquated by retro marketing than the reality at the time ? will the eighties seem like the fifties to people in 2020 ? strange questions for us all, as the species of time travellers we all inevitably become ?

These photos just happen to be taken in Black and White, because the photographer beleived that was best effect for the style of photography he was conducting and also processing and printing yourself was more feasable in Black and White, unless you were the kind of photographic geek who could home process cibachrome ? few did that…

Also note the BBC’s fantastic policy of closing comments for an article before they open them ? ie having no comments at all ?

I would have commented : “Johnny Stilleto hmm the name sounds like a celeb scene snapper, is it for real ? 35mm and shot from the hip… no permision ? the camera shake in the lovers shot ? snapped as you went by ? I’m guessing photographing people from behind was a kind of signature, or is this just the selection the Beeb have made here ? obviously you get the destination or environment of the characters ? some car snapping involved here ? Im gonna have to have a look at the site I guess… ”
… checked it out …
Ok the contextual information makes this site a true pleasure :) insight is insight and the person who takes the shot… narrates the best…
a good site check it out, some interesting images, dont expect any colour younguns
