Recently I have been in contact with my local mp,venting my frustrations about many different subjects regarding our country.As my questions became more complex and deeper,his answers became shorter to the point he has'nt replied at all to my last email.
I replied to his boasts about our country having the strongest economy in Europe by suggesting:
1.our transport system is in tatters.
2.our health service is in tatters.
3.our education system is in tatters.
4.our welfare system is in tatters.
5.our housing is in tatters.
6.immigration is helping to fuel all the above.
7.we pay high fuel prices,high food prices,high prices for social activities such as cinemas,museums etc,etc.
8.i asked him how other countries in Europe who are far worse off than us financially seem to be able to make a better job than us at most of the above.....no reply.

How happy are you with the state of this country
,if you really take the time to think about what is happening.

Tatters.

Not fair to blame him for everything though when he doesn't even live here any more.

No, but if everything's in him, and he's buggered off to Canada, it explains why this guy's whining about things so much.

That said, in the service of this godawful quip, I have now come to the realisation that I'm describing our much loved Tatters as being somewhat, um, capacious.

The education system certainly seems to have failed you.
