Who funds ISIS - IS?

Here we go again. Pictures in the Daily Mail - ISIS using Toyota's - come on lets Boycott - Toyota - any company associated with IS should be boycotted?

Without the support/funding they'll wither and die? Thank fully the price of oil has plummeted thus their earnings on the black market from then oil they've plundered is also plummeting. They' welcome to the desert - who wants it. Yes  some peasant/indigenous populations are being repressed but we can help them.  Small cost.

At the end of the day they only survive due to the greedy few supporters in east and west.

Broadband rip off

I've said it before ALL the broadband companies charge £17 a month for landline rental. Where is the competition? Now DM is reporting it but missing the point.

Letter to Simon Heffer Daily Mail.

Hello Mr Heffer,

I have so say that I largely agree with your comments about the BBC, I do like it, but I have to point out that an organisation spending £3.7billion of Taxpayers money, completely on entertainment, not accountable to anyone is a scandal in the 21^st Century.

I suggest that the Government should reform the BBC by privatising it. Save the £3.7billion and spend it on something worthwhile like the NHS.

For people like us, given today’s varied media , the Licence fee is an anachronism without comparison. People should be allowed the free choice to spend their money as they wish on entertainment if that is their choice.

I have mentioned that the BBC are losing sight or their reponsibilities with inappropiate content broadcast before the watershed. Parents should be able to trust the BBC, what does the BBC trust say to that? Again Amanda Platell agrees with me and good old Julie Walters does too.

Many people without earnings choose to spend their income in strange ways, in my opinion. On the one hand the Worlds Fattest man has just died. Where did he get his money to buy all that excessive food that killed him, surely he wasn’t working as was bedridden. We are told people are starving yet these same people will not give up their Sky TV, Broadband, or mobile phones.

Amada Platell reported that a family of four with one wage earner on the Minimum wage gets a total income of £25k! I do not earn that yet my wife and I live on less than that and pay our income tax, NI, Pension, Council Tax and TV Licence. Our Choice. I would love to earn £25k but would need a salary of around £30k before I took that home.

My answer to inflated benefits – TAX IT! It is after all income. We all have our personal tax allowance designed to ensure we can earn a fair amount before paying tax, so why do these people qualify for so much tax free handouts? It just doesn’t makes sense.

Perhaps we should go back to the 1930’s at least then the poor people knew exactly what they needed to do to survive. No handouts for them. They had to make ends meet. It’s about time we ALL understood that in 21^st Century Britain. Labour won’t cure the situation didn’t they get us into it in the first place?

Monty.

Claudia back on Strictly - fast forward her bits

Usually we record Strictly to be sure we don't miss it. this has the advantage that I can fast-forward thought the Claudia bits.

That woman makes me cringe.

Why does Amanda Platell think she's good? I want to Vote Claudia Off. Zoe and Tess for me. 

Claudia embarrasses herself with her inane antics. Does she thinks she's a Bobby Ball to Tess' Canon?

Either its the BBC humiliating her or if not then I'm right and we can do with out her - its spoiling the show.

But why is it only me that sees this?

Only thing about Tess is that she seems to be talking over the Judges lately. Oh, and I don't really like the additional dancers either, we want to see the Celebrities dance!

Also AP says about Obese people paying for their treatment. Similar to smoking it IS self induced.

EAT LESS! Simple.

I don't understand how these FAT people that are that fat that they can't move about continue to overeat? Surely someone is Feeding them? If you can't move much/at all  how do you shop/cook etc.

Ship them off to Sierra Leone or somewhere  where food is a Luxury. They would be seen as freaks and embarrassed to explain why they are so fat when these folk struggle on a starvation diet.

Its just not right is it?

Why should people get £25k disposable income for nothing? I'd love to have take home pay of £25k to support my wife and I. I'd have to earn over 35k to get that though. Its simple to me - why have Politicians not thought of it - TAX benefits as INCOME just like the rest of us?

That is a level playing field. Why get something for nothing. No argument that "its not worth working I'd be worse off".

 

this IS why UKIP is winning. The Main 3 parties still don't get it.

Tamara Cohen writes in the Daily Mail but quotes a Matthew Parris article from The Times in which he rails against the Voters of Clacton and dismisses them as insignificant.

I think he's very patronising of thousands of voters across the country - he is exactly right about their values and attitudes but we all have a vote don't we and if enough don't Vote for the "Big Three" then someone else is getting the votes and will Win.

He patronises and denigrates these voters with his words. If he is right then what is wrong with these people - are they not free to live their lives as they choose, not how MP chooses?

Somebody has to represent the static caravans and holiday villages, and the people and places that for no fault of their own are not getting where a 21st century Britain needs to be going. 

There are many in a place like this who might be attracted again to the Tories by a noisy display of hostility towards immigration-and-Europe, political correctness and health-and-safety: hostility to a Britain that has forgotten the joys of Ken Dodd, meat pies, smoking in pubs and the Bee Gees

He IS right that part of Britain MUST move into the 21st Century and make the wealth. There is a lot of these in the South East and they are not living in Clacton. What he doesn't realise is how people feel North of Watford. They are hard working but still they do not see the wealth of the SE, they are sick of the Bankers Bonuses that are telephone numbers but WE have bailed out these reckless Bankers and see the Establishment as in bed with them so what are they going to do for us?

With attitudes like yours Matthew they will no vote Tory or Labour because Milliband is not Working Class - he's just as out of touch with real life as the rest.

I thingk Daily Mails wrong

Tracking Aircrat we do not use Radars (sic) (Daily mail can't spell [plural of Radar is Radar - no matter they're ignorant!).

Today we don't use Radar to track aircraft its done on computers using ADS-B

Basically the Plane says where it is using a "network" signal.

This has bee proved to be hackable and who knows what data the Air traffic control are "seeing" .

Hence disappearance of flight MH370.

No to Wind Farms

I'm still saying it - please tell your MP we don't want our Hard Earned Cash going to make the Power Companies even fatter. They can't lose. When the prices go up they only make 5% profit - boo hoo! I am sorry. Some business cannot make ANY profit!! 

We all bailed out the Banks and they still get their salaries and FAT bonuses. Why should the power companies get FAT. I mean why pay the Wind Farm operators to NOT generate electricity - they can't lose either. They get  3 times the rate for a Megawatt of power for NOT Generating -

IS THIS MAD OR WHAT?

So not the Daily Mail has seen the madness of Constraint payments and is showing what a rip off Wind Farms are.Now there is another Money Generating Scheme - Forward Trades.

Lets stop it.

When a typical energy bill is £1300 per annum and over £200 is Tax that makes nearly 20% tax you and I pay. Is this fair on the poorest and those on fixed incomes when those companies can afford to build multi million pound wind Farms to generate Multi Millions of money!

Doctors - missed appointments

Amanda Platell in the Daily Mail says that we should pay £25  per doctors appointmant to see the doctor as so many just miss appointments wasting docotrs time. I  agree its not on but since those not working would not have to pay and from my experience trying to get an appointment to see my doctor, my surgery cannot understand that you might WORK, hence you want to see the doctor at a mutually convenient time. I consider my time precious so would not miss my appointment. £25 is not relevant the majority who take the appointments would not be paying anyway so what is the incentive NOT to miss? 

I say 3 strikes and you're out! Miss 3 appointments and you have to find another doctor. That may sort out these who miss their appointmnts, eh?
