Someone tell me why they can't have designated flats for MPs to live in.
Would have the initial expenditure of buying them - but for long term gain.

It is believed that the SNP are now in talks with Plaid Cyrme regarding a boycott of dish washing until Labour buy more milk.
Sinn Fein are calling all parties a 'bunch of losers' for remaining in property owned by the Crown and are arranging a flat warming for their Camden bedsit.
Fuck Big Brother, just get this shit on the go and televise it. |

I recently took a 60% pay cut.. which at my time and place in life is severely harsh. It's meant me having to sell my house...dont hear me complaining..
BUT, just like the people training to be doctors, the long term outcome will vastly out weight the short term loss. So while I agree with most people here who have said the way this has been introduced is wrong, I also have to say, stop yer fucking moaning and toughen up.
The sooner you get used to the fact that life isnt fair and you have to work hard until the day you die to make the most of it, the better for everyone.
Life sucks... get a helmet.

| Re: Junior Doctors' Free Accommodation To Be Scrapped (split from WOYM) It's not a pay cut, though.
It's a pay rise, just not as big a one as was expected and planned for by the students. |
