Be Wise: Don't Get Trussed

"Why does the Government consider that looking after children is a job deserving of payment when it is done by a stranger, but not when it is done by the child's own mother or father?"

No, not Elizabeth Truss. Obviously not, in fact.

Rather, the words of the late, and far from perfect, Hard Left battleaxe, Audrey Wise MP. Attacking the Blair Government in 1997.

She also described child pornography as the product of, "a greedy society where private profit reigns supreme."

Who says these things in the House of Commons today?

    In my humble opinion Fqmily Allowance should go directly to Grandparents (cut out the middle man)

  2. Well, at this juncture, the SDLP certainly needs something eye-catching. Might that be it?

  3. No room for initiatives like that.
    Although I am actually quite optimistic these days.
    There is a certain arrogance about DUP-SF these days and I think it will be their undoing.
