Green with rage

I'M fed up with being lectured by salad scoffers who don't practise what they preach.

The greenhouse brigade who run town halls use jackboot tactics to enforce policies on rubbish collection, parking and carbon emissions.

Yet they're often the biggest polluters—and it makes me angry. People who live in mansions made of muesli shouldn't throw stones.

I am disgusted with what i read in your paper today regarding these immigrants, my son cant get a council house, he had to move out of his private rented flat recently as they didnt allow children, and as they had a baby due, they tried with the council but hit a brick wall

my son is now paying £85 wk for a small 2 bed roomed house, which in my opinion is disgusting, he his 20yrs old, its a good thing that he has a good job as a welder otherwise they would be out on the streets

this country is a shambles and i have told all my children if they get the chance to move to another country then go, as this country is no longer the britain as we knew it.

all our rights are been taken from us bit by bit, and i am sick of the racist card been used everytime they get a little upset or cant get what they want.

it makes my blood boil its time this government put the people of this country first, by that i mean the white english people and if that comment makes me racist then so be it. with whats happening here in this country of ours, no wonder more and more people are beginning to be racist.

How can this be allowed to happen. My parent in-law's lived in there council house since the 1960's paid all there rent etc.

When my husbands mother, (living on her own after his father died) became disabled and also dementia was unable to get into the bath we asked the council if they could fit her a shower.

We were told not for at least 10 years. Eventually she had to be moved into 24 hour care, which left a 3 bed house for the use of another family. We heard as soon as we moved her out, the house was gutted and a hungarian family were moved in.

The house had been fitted with a brand new kitchen, bathroom but they demanded a dishwasher and got it. This is such discrimination again the British person it is the authorities that cause racism, no one else.

Dont trust red ken either this LEZ is going to effect every one, haulage, charity buses, taxi's. all vehicles need replaceing at an average cost of £40k, who pays you do as they add it to your costs.

It is the same old story
I am better than you, LOOK at my BIG CAR
It is all very well having a BIG car but it is another thing to be able to DRIVE it
Most of the owners cannot, the only reason they do not have so many accidents is everybody steers clear
One has only to look at the way they are parked in Supermarkets Car Parks etc

thats why no one takes any notice of any one in high positions these days as they are hypocrites do as i say. not what i do . the law in this country is the same .if you have money you can get away with any thing also. at the top they look down on us as useless pawns to play with . just see how they queal when any thing happens to them. but we have to have it whether we like it or not . . we cant barricade our houses up but every one with money as iron railing as much security as a prison.fed up britain

...you don't ride a bike with something dangling on your handle bars, you wear a helmet-not carry it, you don't pedal with your instep!...that's just riding a bike and I could go on for miles on other subjects but feel he's a plain loser!

Suggesting that people should behave in an evironmentally friendly way and then buying a "gas guzzler" car for council use is just hypocritical.
