As Chair of Governors at hodge Hill Sports & Enterprise College and Firs Primary I fully support the objective of building new/renovating schools. The original Building Schools for the Future however had many flaws in its operation and would need a re-think. We must also oppose the devisive Accademy initiative which will set back education for many years to come. Banks should be made through tax to repay the country for their disastrous mistakes but they are not alone. How can the FT Companies justify remuneration increases of up to 50% when their share values have decreased their profits have remained static and they have reduced their workforce. We should be hammering the coalition on the NHS, Policing levels, education, tuition fees, defence strategy etc etc but Ed Milliband is failing continually to do so.
Liam. I have not long had a triple by pass and I am recovering well but at 74 I cant see me able to help on leaflets etc;
Just recently I have had a thought about maybe a way of creating quite a lot of jobs maybe only part time and maybe suitable for the elderly (Male or Female) The job I am thinking about will only require just basic training plus a lawful digital camera, my idea is based on people who without fear break the rules in bus lanes ( you check me out I have been guilty of speeding and parking in the last 50 years but never anything more sinister) The idea is to produce work plus it would put more money into the council coffers and once drivers get fined once maybe they will not be as quick to flought our laws. With me it irritates me to stay within regulations and cars fly past.
Please do not think I am being a mean old sod I have given this some thoght and if it works why not move on to cars on the road without tax. Take the pictures and I bet if they have no tax they wont have insurane or vat. (I have too and because of my operation I am not allowed to drive for another week or so)
Can you see how much time we could save in police work and let them do what they joined the force for.
I know it could not be that straight forward but if its feasable why not.
By the way keep up the good work.
Kind Regards.
Maurice.
Hi,
On the corner of Burney Lane and Alum Rock road, the restuarant that has replaced the pub. When you pass the car park from the Alum Rock foot path and walk past their land, there is alot of garbage and bad smell coming from there. Instead of fencing from the border of the property, they have fenced their land 5-6 metres inwards. Now this area is used as a tipping point and smells of dead animals.
This is spoiling our area.
Please do something about it.
Thank you
From Saroya
all you can do is keep up the good work you are doing its hard and if i can help in any way
I cannot understand how any modern government can believe that a policy specifically created to make millions of people unemployed could possibly create growth. it has never worked in the past & it cannot work this time. We need schools, hospitals good roads etc. the construction industry is on its knees & should be leading us out of recession as it has in the past & it will this time when the government has delt out enough hardship, misery & suffering on the poor & made many nomally ‘well do to’ people like myself… poor then & only then will they make any effort to create any sensible attempt at creating growth.
Initiate lower taxes paid by employers who reduce the working week for current employees with no loss of earnings, if they take on more staff. This tax break must not be used to totally to increase profit, but a percentage must be used to support funded pensions. In the end all employers and governments must realise there must be consumers with money to buy their goods and pay taxes, otherwise all monitory systems and law and order collapse. So far the majority of new technologies in industry has be used to increase profitability and decrease labour therefore throwing the burden totally on a diminishing number of employees paying ever increasing taxes and the cycle never ends. Employers must totally accept their social responsibilities if civilisation is to move on.
The present government represents a very, very,very small percentage of the population.
Our present system is not a democratic system representing the electorate as the dictatorship demonstrated in the house over the vote for referendum of EU.
I am tired of watching “Today in parliament” on the TV which indicates a children’s kindergarden (providing someone is there and awake).
I want a “house” which is attended as a matter of course run in a business manner with serious discussion and debates to help Britain grow and regain its strength, as the “Great” in Britain now only applies to the idle.
