political correctness gone bonkers

Toungue Outfollowing the 1970s ILEAs early politically' correct' creed of not encouraging competitive sport, in schools because nobody should be losers, closely followed by an examination results code which discouraged a-c as pass marks marks ou antipadean cousins joined in with the commonwealth games in the rugby sevens teams got a point for losing

how nonsensical is that. unfortunately in life cradle to grave there will be winners and losers

it's life get used to it,be it physically, mentally,financially the idea that some politically correct mantra can lessen or deny the impact or neccessity of learning to lose is another example of the world going mad

Oh My Gosh - No Way!






more not so funny, full time carers inc. kids

the government is saving£millions every year because family m,embers ie spousers and even children are being denied help from social services and in many cases being left to manage alone for lack of social service funding and fear of families or couples being split up.according to the 2001 census there are at keast 170,000 school children are caring for elderly or disabled relatives Wheel Chair
in some cases registered disabled people are fulltime carers receiving little or no
help from social services.the child carer figure is a minimum from the census
the figures cannot be relied upon as many of those concerned fear the authorities
and the break up of families or relationshipsover£1billion is being saved annually as government and county councils restrict funding due to keeping council and other tax rises to a minimum for political expediency.
it is ascandal which successive governments and oppositions are more comfortable ignoring.cost should not be the problem
providing long -term residential care for those whoshould not be ignored by a system which takes advantage of children and not always fully able adults.
labour has not only failed to meet it's target for lifting children out of poverty
it has continued where the tories kleft off in ignoring the the loss of childhood and education of those children carers who subsidise social services through their dedication with little if any help at all it certainly does not look like a labour government is in power it's time for action.

feminiseation of new man cosmetics for men,NO

feminiseation of British men continues, the destiny seems to be a male population more concerned with looking and smelling'nice' than anything .Graham Norton may be a good laugh
but masculine he ain't I'm not saying all of we chaps should be cavemen, but moisturiserand male scent
why is it politically incorrect to be a man what happened to aftershave?
Clucking bell they'll be shaving their legs and playing netball next.
The boys seemed to be falling for the marketing nonsense aboutcosemetics thst have suckered women and girls for years
blokes worrying about going grey and getting wrinkles. becks wearing dresses was an ignominious start.
it'll turn back when the chicks turn around and say ' Break Up Letter Iwant a real man you see if they don't it's only then
as a man you can say 'you're worth it and by the wayno more bloody ponytails on the football pitch Grrr
