Peoples thoughts

[a1guvner]

Just wanted to see peoples thoughts on the UK having a licence system with different classes for sparks, would it be a tool for making unlicenced work easier for the idiots or could it raise standards and make it easier for customers to understand like the Electrical Trainee not being a very high class grade

Well Imago they gave me the same impression and you are right they did begin to turn in the 80s when they lost their way and started to accept knighthoods and lordships mind you IO am old enough to remember Jack Jones when he send the reason why they (the tories) were so fortunate was that their great great grandparents slept with royalty in order to get on and the only problem nowadays (70s) was they were still at it he died in his council house in London even though they tried to smear him through our securty services as a Russian spy and also he refused to buy his council house because as he said they were built to allow people on low wages to have a decent standard of living and getting rid of them would breed an underclass O Jack where art thou now

Ah but he was from the original mould, a time when Unions were the only thing preventing exploitation on a scale that would have made Stalin wince. The unions were started and grew based on a desire to right social wrongs, and they did so very effectively. Like the Labour party when it started. The transformation, betrayal, and downfall of both followed when those within found they had power.

Name me any politician past or present that hasn't?? You can't single out Tony Blair on that one i'm afraid!! Politicians are and have always, only been interested in the promotion of themselves and the party they represent, the Countries needs have always come in as being a far flung Second!!!

Politicians, summed up nicely by by John F Kennedy
Mothers may still want their favorite sons to grow up to be President, but . . . they do not want them to become politicians in the process"

Its not just here they get the reputation
