Oh no Omaghrtedhand I am not bitter at all . I have had a good life in the private sector. But I risked everything in a business which has now dissapeared taking all I ever had with it. But that is the breaks in life. I and my family will survive and the day I die I will take with me the same as i brought on arrival. We all break even. I just found it ironic that the people with the most secure jobs in the world seem to be griping more about than those of us that have at best an uncertain future and would be glad to have 1 weeks work ahead of us most of the time.

Can I just add that the , by your own admission, unproductive and inefficient portion of the public sector are funded by all of us through our taxes and rates. So yes we do envy a job that you can not be sacked from. I dont wish that anyone should be out of work but I would wish that those that have secure jobs should work at them.

Well as I said elsewhere in recent times I have been voting for Willie McCrea DUP to keep David Burnside out.

I suspect Burnside is a spent force so I will probably vote for David Ford.

However if the TUV stand here, I will vote for Willie and the peace makers.

Patrique,

I hope you're only joking about voting for Willie. How could anyone vote for that------ apart from his own crowd !!

The choice was not great, the other bloke is a real----, Willie is a professional ---. He has been working with Sinn Fein from 1984 on Magherafelt council, whereas Burnside is a real old fashioned " a cold house for Catholics" type.

And....if you want anything done it is either DUP or Sinn Fein. Around here, DUP are stronger, and Willie gets things done.

And he hates United and Tyrone.

..........and he gives credence and respectibility to Loyalist mass murderers by sharing public platforms with them. Catch yourself on Patrique though I also agree with your comments about Burnside. Don't prostitute your beliefs.
