I am an ex pioneer commercial diver who risked my life for this country for 20 years, at least a dozen of my friends didn't survive a career fraught with danger and there were many more I didn't know.
We were obliged to use untested ex Nazi decompression tables that the Americans thought were a good idea because the Nazis were good at rocketry. What became known as the US Navy diving decompression tables became the standard across the offshore oil and gas industry from the 60's without question around the professional diving world. I suffered 3 bends (decompression sickness) in my career which was lucky, many of my compatriots were crippled or so severely injured to finish their diving career. Thankfully diving companies have ditched the US diving tables and developed their own in house tables that are much safer but only after being dragged kicking and screaming to it.
In elder life now 73 I suffer chronic arthritis, deafness, eye sight problems and undefined PTSD symptoms as well as alcohol problems (which I and my wife can deal with).
However all my personal problems fade into insignificance these days. I am now so ashamed of the country I grew up with, which once was so honourable, fair minded, generous and charitable only now to be told I am a racist, fascist and far right because I notice things are going very wrong by people who weren't even alive when I did my diver training in Plymouth winter of 1979.
I avoid the news now because I can't stand the horrors of baby rape, mass gang rape of children, the murder of young people on a night out, two tier policing, judiciary and politics.
I don't wonder why this has happened to a once great country, I am not so stupid to not notice the past 30 years of severe decline. The answer is so obvious Stevie Wonder could see it.
There's only one person who is actually the same age as me I'm ashamed to say, responsible, who should be locked up in jail for the rest of his miserable life and the key deep sixed.
Tony fucking Blair. 😊

Is there any way I can make a personal gift to Tommy as a gesture of how much I/we appreciate him? It's not much but I hope it will help with his health which so many of us are concerned with recently. I understand he cannot receive parcels but if it is through a 3rd party medium it might be possible?
Thank you.

It has been brought to my attention that Premium Bond investments NS&I which are tax free except are not free from government interference on who and how much can be won by investors.
My question to AI about government interference was answered by this :
'Yes, the UK government can and does interfere with Premium Bonds, as they are a government product issued by National Savings and Investments (NS&I), which is owned by the Treasury. Government interference primarily involves setting and changing the prize fund rate and overall prize structure, which they do by adjusting the NS&I financing target to influence the number of prizes awarded.'
So, we think we are investing in a tax free lottery that has been going since 1956 and benefitted many people and raised money for the government but, the government now have decided to restrict (of course, they are not going to increase) the number and amount of winners!
So for me I will be cashing in my investment in the NS&I now. It's not worth it with the Socialist government scumbags with their sticky fingers in the till..

I wonder how many agree with me that our current system of so called ‘democracy’ does not work for the people it just works for a few self proclaimed ‘elites’. ?
The political leaders in our country and the parties they claim to represent are all bought and paid for by the same powerful vested interests , which mean whoever you vote for makes no difference when all the trains are heading for the same destination, some faster some slower. Our institutions are corrupted as are those of our brothers and sisters around the world.
It’s time for a radical change we need to move to a direct democracy system , where the real power lies with the people. Politicians have shown time and again that they can’t be trusted. Time for reform has passed, radical change is needed , perhaps a great reset but not the one the global elites had in mind.
Please repost if you agree.
