The one thing they dare not do is face the people they have ignored since Phony Tony came into (too much) power in 1997. Even when I see my MP she daren't looke me in the face, but scurries off before I can catch her. Wait until she wants my vote - vengeance is a dish best served cold!!!

And now the final insult to try to throw them out. I dont know where our government loyalties are. They are definately NOT with the people who gave thier lives for our freedom. And it is not just Gordon Brown, all of the parties have done the same since 1945. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

When we was based in Berlin my doctor at the military hospital was a Gurkha, probably the best doctor I ever saw, he treated my daughter when she was first born, he was such a kind man who I will never forget. My husband was attached to the Ghurkha regiment whilst based in Belize and he has nothing but praise for these brave men. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
