    Modern politics stink!
    I felt totally at odds with what the Labour Party were and are still trying to do Supersub6. IMHO they no longer represent the working class, they are fragmented, rudderless and just do not seem to grasp the reality of the day.

    I had personal "full-on" contact with almost a dozen Manchester based Labour MP's and the only one who had any credibility IMHO was Rebecca Long Bailey. Starmer has now scuppered her dead quick. It's a mess, but it's no longer my mess.

    It really shows just what a mess the political scene is in the UK. There are far too many career politicians who have progressed to become MPs by way of school, university --studying law or whatever followed by little else. Their experience of working people and the hardships that many of the population endure is almost zilch. They pay lip service to this, that and the other, however, in the main, they have no substance because all they are interested in is what they can get out of the job, look at the expense scandal for instance.
    We all like to pick up the odd perk, however, it appears to me that many are just driven by greed and we are paying for it!

    I honestly don't see how the country will recover from the events of the last few years with Brexit and the virus because we are drastically short of leaders who need to take the situation by the scruff of the neck and make things work.
    As you know, I am the eternal optimist, however, that is my take on things, however, it will not drag me down!

    How is the job going?
