OT: Have we brits lost the plot?

[leicesterboy15]

Yes we have lost the plot, I hear it all the time from people like us - the man on the street! Its mental, we complain but we just take it. Revolution anyone?

The only way to get by is to run a hair brained scheme using a government grant, pay yourself a fat wad and drive the 'initiative' into the ground. It will just go down as another failed government project and lets face it one more is going to make no difference.

And how did they sneak this tobacco for over 18's only law?! Don't get me wrong I think its a good idea but I seem to remember this being discussed a few years ago and it causing uproar so it was scrapped. This time it just came in from nowhere!

How are we supposed to invade poland when poland has just invaded us?

LOL! But they do make good builders and are very reasonable! Maybe we should all go there and build a new economy!

The best thing about England? The number of boats, planes and trains able to take you away from the damn place.......

We have become the most watched nation in history, with cameras everywhere. Also do you Brits know that there is a new law requiring your mobile telephone provider to keep records on all your voice and text usage?

Why and who needs all this information? For what use is it other than to oppress the population? ...Apparently the Burmaese Army are going to hold a protest highlighting the repressive regime of the UK.......


Oh, and 205GTi gets my vote also. I did 168,000 miles in mine and ran it into the ground. Driving it put a smile on my face each and every single day.

Don't get me started on this country - the policing here is a load of b*llocks. all they want to do is fmake money, focusing on the easiest target - the motorist... They failed to mention that whilst poor Rhys Jones was being shot in broad daylight the police here in Liverpool were out all over the city doing their 'checks' on local motorists in the name of 'safety'. It's a disgrace.

Everytime you turn around here they want to fine you, and on top we're being taxed to death. First they tax your wages (+NI) before you even see it, then you pay council tax, then TV license, then VAT on everything you buy, then road tax, then tax on petrol - WTF.

I'm going to find a country where the hard-working average Joe is valued and respected (if there is one), and im there. The only people that get a look-in in country are the unemployed, 15year old single mothers, ethnic minorities and last but not least criminals!!!!!

Thats enough for now i think...

Don't get me started on this country

Haha "too late!" screamed the crowd.

Seriously as soon as I've completed my Oracle certification I'm out of this shithole of a country to find somewhere cold and snowy to live.

Must be a "grass is always greener" thing. I moved to England to get away from a cold and snowy country.

Also, having lived in Canada and the US in addition to England, I have serious doubts there are any non-shithole countries. Everywhere you go, it's the same ****, but a different pile. Or, at best, you get a different kind of ****, but it's still piled high. Humans seem to have a talent for spreading big, fat suck everywhere they go.

Didn't know England was like that. Damn, GOD BLESS AMERICA!

[E34-520iSE]

Yep I hate this place too. England is a gay country, where the kids in inner city grot boxes are allowed to ruin the streets and stab innocent people, and adults get locked up for many years if they give these kids a good old fashioned beating. There has been a big change in this country since about 1992 - I don't think I can stand much more of it - oh and the telly is rubbish too, never watched it for years. So what do we do then? Do we just shut up and put up with it? It seems that decent people are emigrating in their thousands - maybe I should join the queue.
