Rabbit Thought of the Day

Time to go home (well nearly), after a very slow and mistake ridden start, it as turned out to be a good, day, I have achieved far more than I expected too, considering  the state I was this morning.

The traffic seems to be flowing quite well so I should be alright getting home, tomorrow may be different, but will face that then and won’t worry about it at the moment.

I have just been reading a report on the political donations made to the 3 main parties, Labour received £3m, the conservatives £4.2 m and the Liberal Democrats a miserable £470,000 (aw the poor Lib Dems), between January and March of this year.

Now I can understand why people give to the political parties, they hope to gain something from their support (I thought that was classed as bribery). What I can’t understand is why we allow it, each party should be allocated a sum of money from public funds, say £1m a year, this should pay for staff and campaign funds and this is all the money they should be allowed, perhaps then with all the parties on a equal footing we might get some decent and serious debate and we would see the parties for their true worth (Labour about £5, the Conservatives about £7.50 and the Liberal Democrats about 1.5p…lol).

What I do find somewhat difficult to understand, is how much debt the political parties are in, Labour £17.8m, the Tories £12m and Liberal Democrats £1.1m. What would happen if the banks decided enough was enough we want our money bank, does that mean that they would have to close down, and stop (trading) i.e. have no MP’s (some hope), but what would happen if they had to go bankrupt.

Interesting!

Oh on a  more serious point why give to political parties when you could give to a more worthwhile cause, Cancer Research or Alzheimer’s or something like that.

Because of my earlier lack of concentration I missed a couple of things that should have been included in a document  I was putting together, fortunately I have finally come around and my little grey cells (Hercule Poiriot) are now fully functional and I managed to spot the mistakes before I sent the said document out.

I have now amended the document, its been sent out and every thing is now looking great, thank god!

Have just applied for more training courses, there is one that I need to do because of new legislation that as come into force and there is one I would like to do, it would benefit the company but it would also be great benefit to me, in case I ever leave my current employment (always look to the future).

I am now fully in bank holiday made, despite still having a couple of days left till the end of the week; I really want to get away now. Perhaps, I’m a little tired from watching last nights game, I don’t know but I am struggling to concentrate on the job in hand.

Am not taking a lot away, we are travelling light, as long as I remember the most important thing, my camera equipment I will be happy. Ah the simple things in life!

Congratulations to Chelsea, oh sorry you lost didn't you gloat, gloat.

I don't know why I'm gloating I follow Liverpool....lol
