President Hollande a joker

President Hollande of France has called for an international military action in Syria This from a president who is pulling French soldiers out of Afghanistan 12 months ahead of other ISAF forces. Again is this France  saying that its OK for other countries to send their troops in harms way but we'll stop at home. Again this is just like the French to cut and run  as usual. For once the Americans are reluctant to get involved in another conflict. I am sorry for the people in Syria, but it is about time that the United Nations did something positive instead of all this hot rhetoric that it now seems to be the only thing it is capable of.

Are we now becoming a country of need or greed

The British police force we are always being told is the finest in the world. Yet we have people being released from prison because officers have fixed the evidence to get a conviction or they deliberately misplace evidence or don't pass it on to the defence. Now we see that many of these well paid officers have one or more jobs. This also applies to many fire officers who do other jobs such as window cleaners. Again is this not greed when these police officers and fire officers are compared  to the rest of the public are well paid. We have people today poorly paid that have to do more than one job just to keep bread on the table. Now we have people who who have got the Olympic torches and are selling them from anything from £1000 to £153,000 on E-Bay the person who sold this one said that the money was going to charity, that's all well and good if it is true. Some of these torches have been sold even before the participant has carried out their part in the road show. Is this just people jumping on the band waggon before other people. The Olympic committee must take some of the blame. They said originally that these torches couldn't be sold but returned to the Olympic committee who would reimburse the cost to the torch bearer, but they soon changed their stance. We really are becoming a country of greed. before need.

Wrong snow wrong rain now it's wrong sort of wind

Now I've heard everything. We've had the wrong type of snow that caused havoc on our roads, we had the wrong type of rain to wet the ground and fill the reservoirs we had leaves on the lines that caused delays on the rail networks. Now Damian Green said that flights that were delayed because of the winds was responsible for the crowds at airports, due to late arrivals. Has this freak weather suddenly occurred over the past few weeks. Where did it come from, have changes in wind direction always been with us, or does Damian Green think that the public is that thick to except the incompetence of this government. If Cameron has any sense he'd terminate this ministers employment before he makes a laughing stock of not only this government but the country.
