This is a tough post to write but I think I have to write about this.

In Sundays Obvserver this week stating that economic migrants should not be automatically put to the top of the queue for social houseing, and that ordinary uk citizens should take priority.

Now as I said at the start of this post it’s a tough one to write. How do I sufficiently explain how I feel without coming across as some right wing nut job who has a long standing membership to the BNP. That couldn’t be further from the truth but I do feel strongly that people who are born and raised in this country should be first on the list for houseing.

I do believe that people who are in trouble and have no where else to go, political migrants, for instance. These people need our help straight away, but if your here to make money just because our standard of lioving is higher than your country then you need to pay your way and not expect the country to pay your way.
Rant over.

I can’t believe that CBS have cancelled Jericho (linky) It’s one of the shows I CHOSE too watch this year religiously. I didn’t download it… I waited for the Hallmark channel to show it. I put up with the 6 week break in the middle of the run and now they decide to cut us off without any kind of resolution. I am not sure I will bother watching the second half of the series that is about to be shown over here, I don’t see the point really.

I have been up since 5.30 and I am going mad. I have searched the internet for anything that will keep me mildly amused and have resorted to listening to Goon Shows.

Here have a picture of Queen Victoria

They don’t make pictures like that any more you know.

Until I think of something else to say Plooogie and Yackaboooooo

So it’s my birthday today. 33 years old. It was a busyish day at work but it died down towards the end of my shift and as usual I got bored. So what does a bored phone operator do when there are no phone calls to answer… He makes M&M artwork. See my handy work.

That kept me quiet for a whole ten minutes (eating time included).

Other big news today (as if you need me to point out) is that Tony Blair has announced his departure date. 27th June. But he made the announcement today, on my birthday. I can only describe the media frenzy as a media shit storm. It’s as if no one knew this was coming. We have known about this for two years at least… and now it seems that all the news that was news over the past thirteen years is being dug out and posted on news websites as a tribute to the outgoing PM.

Fair dues, but they could have at least eased us in gradually… there is no natural start point to the coverage. If your looking for a concise history to who and what Tony Blair stood for and what he achieved (or didn’t depending on which side of the political divide you stand on) you could start here.

I start work early tomorrow so I won’t get a decent chance to sit down and digest the BBC website coverage until tomorrow afternoon when I get home, but I did get a chance to read the above link while at work and found it really interesting.

May 10th the day the Labour party lost it’s best leader in decades and I Turned 33.. you decide which is more important.

Until Next Time…
