for someone to come along with some common sense and scrap all our stupid laws and make some clear and useful ones. I was just reading on the bbc website about how employers can make people retire at 65 but yet we have this law that says u can't discriminate over age, so it sounds like a contridiction to me just like a million other laws we seem to have now adays. u daren't get in to an argument with anyone these days cos they will turn round and say u r breaking some guideline in paragraph c sub section a of the how to live your life by stupid rules act!!!! i'm so fed up with it all.
so Father Christmas if your listerning, can we all have for christmas a fair and proper carry on please.

I blame the Bl**dy lawyers.
A law that can be stated "You cannot force someone to work beyond the age of 65 but if they want to then that's OK" fills pages and pages in the statute book because you have to define every word, clarify the meaning and screw it down so tight that some ringpiece shyster cannot mount a spurious claim against it on a NWNF basis.
Scumbags.
Rant ends.
