Deal or No Deal

Talk about Charging people for treatment of Obesity ,For lung related problems to  patients arriving at A&E, is now a hot topic among local communities.Isn't it possible this will soon be applied to A&E patients arriving for treatment for Adventure Sports accidents.? I am thinking here about injuries from Skateboarding, Hill Climbing. Boxing ,SwordFencing,Scuba Diving,Rugby,Football,Hockey,MotorRacing and many more such activities .The arguements for bringing this in will also be applied to these Adventure activities.I hope this is widely discussed before such a deal can be thrust upon us in a hurry.My first impression on the subject is that it is a KILL-JOY method to do what is a money Saving scheme. There are other ways surely.

" A house divided AGAINST ITSELF CANNOT endure permanently half slave and half free. ( Abraham Lincoln ).In our case the growing divide between the Super Rich and the and the helpless Poor.The Socialists and the Capitalists each having their own ideas of uncompromising government.Life could become blurred and confusing and people will become restless for change. Call it what you like.

They have this idea that they were elected by popular consent.  They weren't.  Shame we spend so much time watching life on the television instead of taking part nowadays. We should be joining the students on the streets.

The Coalition Government was expected by many to give People a better say in Political matters. Atleast I thought so.All of Britain was persuaded to accept Austere measures. Cuts,lay-0ffs,Price rises ,all around us .All except the Bankers. They are still drawing huge Salaries and Bonusses .It certainly rings a sour note when one hears Our PM's claim that we are all in it together.The FSA and the Ombudsman's publications show that today the highest numbers of Complaints against the BANKs were upheld.This cannot be an acceptable deal for any of us. How do we tell our governing fraternity . NO DEAL it is unacceptable.
