Miserable May

Well, just six weeks or so on from my first whinge here and many of our politicians can now be seen to have had their snouts in the trough for years.

How can somebody claim mortgage expenses for 18 months after they had, presumably, paid off the loan without realising it? Why should Mr Silly Sod the British Taxpayer stump up £2,600 so Shaid Malik can have a giant TV and home cinema system or McKay and McBride make twin claims? Hazel Drears claiming on three different properties in one year and trying to dodge CGT? 'Flipping', moat cleaning, private security, doing up your house on the taxpayer! It truly is mind-boggling..

I suspect that British pigs are feeling pretty fed up at the company we are accusing them of keeping..

Perhaps every MP should face a reselection meeting before the next (and very overdue..) general election..

And then there's the Labour peers on the take? The House of Lords that ZANU Labour is so keen to reform!

Rant over - almost..

I look forward (with a wry smile..) to the annual cringefest that is the Eurovision Song Contest, taking place this weekend in Moscow because the USSR hasn't really gone away.

I shall miss the cynical old Irishman - had the world-weary cynicism becme part of the act? - and am resigned to listening to that tedious little Irish prat who is probably the most irritating twerp on the telly..

Ah well..

HomeCare that doesn't care..

An example of truly dismal customer service..   Chris O’Shea Group Chief Executive Centrica plc Millstream Maidenhead Road Windsor SL4 5GD   13 th  February 2021     Dear Mr O’Shea   British Gas HomeCare – Agreement No. xxxxxxxxxx-xxxx   I am writing to you with regard to the service being provided by your British Gas HomeCare division.   We had a new boiler fitted by British Gas in 2001 and have paid for British Gas HomeCare to cover Central Heating, Plumbing and Drains and Home Electrical since then, without a break as far as I can recall. Currently we pay an annual subscription of £290.76 and an excess of £50 per visit for the security of knowing we will have a range of domestic breakdowns attended to promptly.   We have used the service a number of times and usually found response times, outcomes and the professionalism of your personnel to be satisfactory or better. We have recommended the service to friends and relatives.   On Janu...

Bloody cold December..

I had planned to describe December as 'white' but I suspect that this is no longer permitted under enlightened legislation to safeguard everyone from any kind of persecution on grounds of race, religion, sexual orientation, gender, disability, etc, etc....... Where to start? There are so many things about which any right-thinking person should be experiencing frequent apoplectic fits, it is hard to pick out the most brightly shining stars in the firmament of utter bollocks. BA cabin crew being duped - allegedly - into voting to strike for 12 days solidly over Christmas by their union. How on earth does anyone still fail to realise that the trades unions - particularly the big Waffen-SS style super-unions..) are run by power-crazed fascists whose only real motivation is to fight the class war whilst lining their personal pockets? The Nu Labour government clearly thinks that climbing out of the trenches of the class war and lumbering across no mans land towards the playing fields...

July's Merchant Bankers..

The start of July sees GOM marginally more irritated than usual - if such a thing is possible - as summer tends to bring society's most aggravating merchant bankers out from under their decking... The short daily walk to and from school with the children provides the perfect opportunity to view an abundance of prats at close quarter. Leading the field are the cretins who cannot walk the three hundred meters to the school and have no option but to park their Freelander two hundred meters from school, doing their best to create a local mini-gridlock. This group is closely followed by the drivers who feel that the pavement, despite being used by schoolkids and parents, is a useful route to take when the inevitable daily traffic snarl-ups start. Of course the hot weather can wreak havoc on women who have had to spend all day drinking coffee and blathering, going to the gym to drink coffee and blather and otherwise doing bugger all. Sensible, therefore, that once they have bagged a prim...
