Labour Government in Meltdown?

The following is from today's Sunday Times, linked here: IF the morale of a political party can be measured in the number of inquiries made to the trustees of the parliamentary pension scheme, then Labour is at rock bottom. “I know of many MPs in marginal seats who have quietly been in touch to find out how much their retirement income would be if they stepped down at the next election,” one backbencher said. “Others are thinking about retraining to go back into the careers they left when they came into the Commons, such as teaching and social work.” MPs who retire on grounds of sickness are given special dispensation to claim their full pension before they reach the age of 65. Several have made inquiries about whether it would be possible for them to quit the Commons on grounds of ill health — before voters eject them via the ballot box. Exactly!! This is the problem of the past ten years, nicely encapsulated in a sentence: “Others are thinking about retraining to go back into the careers they left when they came into the Commons, such as teaching and social work.” Are teachers and social workers what is needed to run the Country? Especially if they even need retraining to return to those tasks! HAS NOT THREE TERMS IN THE COMMONS NOT GIVEN THEM ANY EXPERIENCE OTHER THAN COUNTING THEIR TAX-PAYER FUNDED PENSIONS? DO NOT VOTE FOR CANDIDATES OF THE THREE MAIN CORRUPT AND INCOMPETENT PARTIES ON FIRST MAY. IF YOU DO YOU WILL CONTINUE TO DESERVE WHAT YOU PRESENTLY SEEM DOOMED TO CONTINUE TO GET!
