paulus 26 Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 sadly common sense isnt a factor when making these decisions. I have a copy of the descriptors that are used to do the scoring and there's no sense in them mate.

scothunter 12,609 Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 there no pride in our politicians or patriotisim.they would rather play to the world stage and feather there nests for when they are longer politicians.cause lets face it they are good for f**k all.you only need to listen to them,stupid b*****ds,taught in outdated schools and even more outdated ideology. if i were to get into politics.i would want to make this country my first priority,and all availble funds would go to that before anything else. end child poverty get [people housed and re;atively happy,then we may see a pride in ourselfs returning.food banks and suchlike is certainly not going to see any pride. any inhabited islands we could set up on lol 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I do believe she was a bit young but as you said she could be turned around and she seems as though she wants that. I believe with the proper help to get on her feet the baby would be better off with her 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
