One essential point that you missed here is that rioters traveled away from
their homes to riot. You're indicating that the unemployment rate in the
areas where the riots took place tell us something about the causes for the
riots. I'm not saying that you're wrong by arguing that unemployment was an
important factor, but this map doesn't substantiate that point, at least
not as is - the rioters could still live in areas that were rioted; they
just didn't riot their own area themselves.
I heard that yesterday a woman gave John Humphries a run for his
money(unintended pun) on the R4's Today program saying that the Euro was a
Ponzi Scheme. He asked why she hadn't said this sooner in radio interviews
and her reply was that she had tried for ages but they wouldn't let her on
the program. Is anyone able to corroborate this? I went Wales on my shiny
red motorbike, I had occaision to stop, go behind a hedge and have a PEEEE!
No sheep were harmed in the formation of this comment.
@gibbo675 This may be the programme you mean. I tried to sift through it to
find the bit to which you referred, but i couldn't be bothered having to
listen to all the twaddle in between so i gave up. I think it's 3 hrs long.
(That's way too much bbc for anyone in one day) bbc. co. uk/ programmes/
b015p85t "..No sheep were harmed in the formation of this comment..." Glad
to hear it. People in Wales can be very protective when it comes to their
sheep :)
I dont like the peeeee.... sorry :S. But keep it. It makes you happy :P.
The Welsh thing just goes to prove that spending, and consumption doesnt
drive an economy. Its all to do with production. So far thats JB Say 1000s
of victories and counting and JM Keynes 0. And the French thing just goes
to show how the government rapes you twice. First through inflation. Then
through taxation!!!! The Bas...turds
who is going to try and bail Greece out next , Romania , Bulgaria . non of

@eventuallythetruth It should, as we talk a lot about silver, really be
pennys as in penny weights (dwt) of which there are twenty in one troy
ounce or if you like twelve per shilling.
@gibbo675 BritBullCrap - That's about right. I've been watching a few dvd's
of "yes minister" recently. I think it's even better fun watching it this
time around. Good stuff.
Well, what's the alternative, economically illiterate Labour? The years of
quick successive 'boom and bust' within 5/10 year cycles are long gone. The
accumulated wealth of our grandfathers has been depleted. For me, when you
see stories such as £1.4million gov't investment going in to Airbus UK
Filton with 200 jobs created, you know which direction we have to go.
Bloated public sector non-jobs on ridiculous wages have sucked the country
dry, it's back to reality I'm afraid. Get used to it.
The numbers are going down because they have made it almost impossible to
claim.they don't count all the under 18 that left school last year and this
year.they don't count the people on voluntary work placements, you
volunteer or lose your benefits! They don't count the people on back to
work schemes .for every job going there over 45 people applying for the
job.there I are no jobs paying a liveable wage only part time in retail or
food service sector!
There are lies, damn lies... and then there are the government's
unemployment statistics. BBC News is just propaganda for the British
Government. The BBC exists to promote government interests, regardless of
which party is in power (although it prefers Labour than the Tories). Real
journalists would investigate the truth behind these statistics, not just
blindly accept them
It's time we stopped asking and started doing the telling. Everything they
are taking away was won with blood, sweat and suffering. They did for us
and it will soon be our turn to do it for the next generation. This time we
know better than to think you can make deals with pigs.
Dose that include the forced labour..The ill being made homeless, Due to
being cut, And the people who have committed suicide, I doubt it its tory
propaganda for people to hear on the radio quickly and not look into. And
think this government are doing good for everyone, ?
haha just take visit to your job centre and ask them if what they have done
to push up employment they will be clueless and they may want you sign and
bring your job search while you are their.or they might call the 6 security
guards to lock the safe to the diamonds .
Considering Germany's unemployment is currently 2.27 Million, I'd say
that's far from a disaster coming off the back of a financial/economic melt
down. Some people like you are never happy, I think you just love to be a
little fulltime moaner, and always be negative.
I have a full time job that I have been in employment for 8 years, but I
stress over all the children in my family who have left school or about to
leave and wonder if they have any future at all.?
