Sadly so true, Bee
Posted on Thu, 14 Apr 2016
Interesting you describe the brutal techniques of the fifties and early sixties. I remember the disgusting post-war state crap and the garbage that was shovelled onto the plates that passed for school dinners. (I went home during primary school...

I've seen this myself, but in Mumbai rather than Dubai
Posted on Sat, 06 Feb 2016
Bangladeshies are treated badly and seriously ripped off in Mumbai, seem they are no better off in Dubai.
Your first stanza really struck a chord with me . . . an every day scene in many Indian cities.

The more I hear about the NHS, the more I am convinced it needs to be broken up and the whole health system in the UK re-structured. Unfortunately I am also convinced whatever they did the UK government would find a way to **** it up.
