Politics & Government - 1 December 2006

My aunt wants to contest my grandfathers will because she is not an heir. The reason being that he has paid cash for her house and bought her a new car, as well as did all the repairs on the house, buy her weekly groceries etc. My grandfather has explained to her that he feels she has already gotten her share and and the rest should be divided amongst the rest of the family. In the event he passes first, my grandmother is sole heir and this is why I am concerned. If my aunt contests the will, she will walk away with 2/3 of the estate, leaving my nanna with no way of supporting herself.

Why did she close the pits, was it really to defeat the unions or because they were unprofitable and in debt.
Why did she sell the services - Gas, Electricity, B.T. etccc..., my point is this. Today, you have several telephone companies and several energy suppliers. Did she sell them off early because she knew that they would be worthless when the competition arrived, I don't understand it. She made the rich richer and the poor poorer. Is that the general story behind it. Who's policy did she copy and what other countries have / had not public services. Which countries today have public utilities companies. The last question is what would you do if you were in a position of influence to change her wrong doing or right doing - what would you do to build on her success or right her wrong. This is an impartial question and for all intents and purposes I am neither with her or against her. Sensible answers please.

I have just recently noticed something about the government and the law. Some people think of it as a crass system, for example everyone is against the conflict in Iraq. I've been thinking, though: every single law and action has to be considered and thought about carefully, because if something was changed unwisely it could screw up the system known as the government. If a law conflicts with another, it could be disastrous. I'm not with the government, but i'm not exactly completely against it, I myself am against everything going on in Iraq. In other words: i'm never getting into politics because of my personal views and moral demeanor.

The local ice-cream man was found lying on the floor of his van covered with hundreds-and-thousands and toffee syrup.
The police say that he topped himself, but I'm not so sure.

What do you think?

Would it also be useful in a blitzkrieg strategy in South Asia? If not what weapon/s do you think should be used in its place.

Wearing a red ribbon won't accomplish anything. Getting involved won't accomplish anything.

Talking to people will help, but only if you say something like "DO NOT have sex with anyone until you are married. DO NOT have sex with anyone but your husband or wife once you are married. DO NOT take drugs. DO NOT share needles".

I worked in UK from 2002 to 2005 earning well over 6000 GBP per month as a sex worker. I made my fortune and left UK. I never paid a penny in tax and whats more the government was not interested in me paying tax. they seemed to think earning money that way is the same as not earning at all.

Is it worth insisting on paying tax?

Two different candidates have claimed the Presidency of Mexico. Mexican legistative operations have been disrupted.

Do you think another Mexican revolution will result in mass illegal immigration to the USA and what should the US government do about it?

I am doing a paper on why we should pull out of Iraq and would love to hear the opinions of individuals. Even if you have cons I would love any intelligent feedback you will offer.

People keep saying "They are just following there orders"


I think All Military/Army People in the U.S. Should question every order they are given and refuse to obey if they disagree.

I don’t think drink driving laws are fair as it is just some level that people come up with – surely it should be about how you drive. I was driving fine but got pulled over for no insurance and was over the limit.

I have to go back to court now and the fact that I got done for drink driving and also no insurance I could end up back in prison as I have a suspended sentence for something else from last year.

I’ve had a few problems in the past but things have been going OK recently but now things are all messed up again – just because I was over this limit that somebody set although I was driving alright.
