They are a disgrace. <BR/><BR/>Self discipline and civic duty seem to be so very sadly lacking. It's not just 20 years of neglect over town infrastructure. It's also the fact that young people feel they are owed respect from their betters! <BR/><BR/>I'm tired of subsidising loutish behaviour under the banner of "social inclusion".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6385595.post-79418291996504329312008-02-12T12:14:00.000+00:002008-02-12T12:14:00.000+00:00Former glory beckons in more ways than one, I reck...Former glory beckons in more ways than one, I reckon at the next election -at last- Torbay will have a Conservative MP!<BR/><BR/>I especially agree with you over Mp's allowances, don't go native when you do get in like Adrian Sanders did.<BR/><BR/>Keep up the good work,Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
