Seriously now, I have to say I have no patience for the world any more.

I don't agree with 95% of the western world and its ways and as for those nut-jobs in the middle east... well, lets just say although they do have a point occasionally, a good old medieval crusade to thin their numbers wouldn't go amiss either!

Is there anywhere on this forsaken mudball where a little common sense and perspective still reign?

It must be an age thing, the more you understand of the world around you the less you accept of it. And I accept very little of it as relating to me in any way. The standards and accepted norms of todays society aren't of my choosing lets put it that way.

I'm still waiting for the death of political correctness and have been since the 90's passed by. I'm sorry but between 'defered successes', personal protective equipment for playing conkers, civic insurance for egg and spoon races and all the other multitude of things we can't do, or can't say out loud I think I've reached the conclusion that *drum roll* that global warming IS the best thing to happen to the Earth in thousands of years!

Thats right! The answer to all the world's problems is the one we simple little organisms believe to be the greatest peril it faces. How ironic.

All we need to do is carry on with the pollution and eventually the world will become so inhospitable we will suffer and eventually become extinct. The Earth however, will still be here and will still continue to orbit the Sun.
Without us meddling buffoons turning the glorious wonder of nature into one giant excuse to work rather than live, the Earth will recover and prosper without us quite merrily!

It would be interesting to see if you stood a politician between the train tracks how long it would be before he reached to conclusion that the train would, indeed hit him and wouldn't veer aside at the last moment. Ignorance like that over making positive, not lip-service, policy to combat pollution is yet more damning evidence that as a species, we frankly deserve to go extinct.

Whoever coined the phrase 'Save the Earth' needs a spanking too, global warming is just humanity's brush with celestial Cillit Bang... now if folks had come up with the more correct terminology of 'Save the Humans' people might actually sit up and pay attention.

Anyway, I rant on...

Maybe the next generation will do something more imperative about it... but then again by all accounts they'll be obese, diabetic and dying of heart failure before they're 50 anyways so they won't give a shit either.

Is it just me, or is anyone else waiting for a new breed of politician to arrive?

The one who stands up and says 'with all due respect, the right honourable gentleman is an inbreed fuckwit and wouldn't know his arse from his elbow!?'

The one who looks at the education system and says 'defered success??? Bollocks, its called failure. Some of them are good, some are crap - thats life, get used to it!'

The one who says to all the asylum seekers, 'If you're so scared of persecution I'd have thought you'd have been happy to settle in the first country you came to that was safe - rather than continuing on to the one with free healthcare, free housing and cash handouts'

I await the arrival of the Common Bloody Sense party.

PS.I'm not holding my breath.

PPS. Yes, I NEED a holiday... BADLY!
