Okay, OBVIOUSLY Boris didn’t say ‘go out and spend your money so the Queen can buy dresses’, he said if you can afford it, don’t start hoarding all your money because the news tells you to. If the people who can actually afford to spend STOP spending, then the economy is going to get nowhere. I’m 16 and I worked that out. Love you Boris

Roha you have your vote. And you can write in and complain, some bodies have formal complaints procedures. If enough people complain, people have to take notice, for example, the BBC recently. You can air your views on websites such as this. I know it’s not much, certainly not enough to sort out the things you are talking about but it is a start.

We need protection from all forms of abuse and exploitation, not just terrorism!

I cannot watch England cricket or football because some rich bloke has been allowed to stop me from doing so unless I pay him for the privilege.

I cannot heat my home because the government is helping foreign companies to abuse an essential commodity for living.

I have no choice where I buy my groceries because the government has encouraged Tesco to restrict my choice.

My mortgage interest has not been lowered although the base rate has been reduced by 2% because the government is in awe of the bankers. “what can I do”, says the chancellor.

I have worked for the past 33 years and have been made redundant 4 times because the directors of the companies have been, either totally incompetent, or greedy and selfish. 1 of these directors managed to shut down a company within 3 years of taking over. The company had been trading since 1844!! 2000 people lost their jobs and nothing happened to the ar….le! Why?

Where ever I look I see exploitation. Especially where consumers do not have a choice. Electricity, Gas, Petrol, Mortgages, Public transport, hospitals, TV, etc… in fact, I cannot think of any essential commodity that is not exploited by some big company. And with collusion by the government.

If something is wrong, stop it! Don’t find reasons not stop it.

thank you for the chance to air my grievances

Anyone daft enough to have a go at George Osborne for this is totally out to lunch. How is it his fault? I like George, he has the gift of clarity without being patronising.

If Gordon feels the need to recall and lean on two men like Peter Mandelson and Alastair Campbell, he must be at a very low ebb. But he doesn’t have the strength and decisiveness necessary to be a good leader and that has been the problem all along.

I agree, there is not much significance in Labour winning Glenrothes. They were bound to win ONE Scottish by-election, and Gordon and his wife had to beg and plead to swing it their way anyway. if he feels happy for a bit, that’s OK by me too.

And Gordon, don’t try the politics of fear on the people of this country. They fell for it in Glenrothes, but we see through you.
