Hear the latest anyone if you want to travel you won't be able to afford it. Unbelievale as it may seem not only will you be priced out of using you car but you won't be able to afford to use the train in peak hours. Yes you guessed it congestion garging for using the train As if we all want to travel in peak hours on cramped uncomfortable trains or drive on clogged roads, maybe its a time that employers in the UK looked at the hours and work patterns they expect the workforce to follow |

yes many have.
At best you only get 1/200 years of okness before they take th episs again.
Also its not as easy anymore.
Back in the day, a load of you would take up arms and smite thy enemies before any messenger could escape to warn others.
Now they would be on their mobiles to get the army in! |

I think we should all do what the french do, go on strike blockade every where and bring some bloody common sense back into this country, then maybe the powers that be might just realise that they can't keep coming up with these stupid solutions when what we need a fundamental rethink to the way we in this country are expected to live our lives. I don't work in london from choice I have to work in london because this is the only place where there is work for me, that I can get to from where I live.
sorry but the more I hear about this country of ours the more I want to pack my bags and leave for good.
sorry rant over. I'll shut up now. |

congestion charging the bloody trains, what a thoroughly spacko idea. As if anyone on the train at rush hour would be there if they didnt have to be. |

The government have already laid the groundwork to stop everyone working 9-5....they introduced a legal right to ask for Flexible working...of course your company don't have to let you...your just allowed to ask!!! And of course there's my personal favorite (really) home working! That would suit me fine....lying in bed with my laptop, late mornings, late nights...bliss |
