This country has gone mad. Nearly every TV and news channel is going on about the expenses that all members of parliament have been declaring for the past few months. Meanwhile what good news should be getting through is being muffled by the hysterics of the hyena's in the press.
MOVE ON!

Meanwhile - why oh why is the petrol price creeping up so severely again. Now unleaded is almost the same price as diesel whilst the oil barrel price remains quite low.

Now is the time to change.
