Yes, that's what a Russian said at the G20 talk's today, but they all know where to come for help when they want it don't they?

We help out most, we give in to most, we accept most, we lose most and with little thought no doubt I could add plenty more.

Sad that current and former Politicians have allowed our Country to fall into decline.

What say you members........that is whilst our politicians stuff there faces tonight!

"A small island that nobody takes any notice of" 

I think Argentina made the mistake of thinking along those lines, what they didn't reckon on was Mrs T.
