It's Thursday and there are have been three posts this week...

 

So it looks like the perpetrators behind the Parsons Green tube terrorist attack are refugee children? The same ones that Lord Dubs and assorted celebrities were campaigning to bring into the UK.

 

Honestly, we bend over backwards to help people and then they try to turn the UK into the same "sugar" hole that they came from.

I think the Grenfell tower residents do come across as being very entitled...

 

As for them being involved in the inquiry... Well, let's be honest, what do they have to add? 

I see the despite the hysteria, including from an MP, that the police were hiding the true death toll the number is actually falling:

I guess they look at our politicians and follow suit.

 

I'm not defending their despicable actions, simply pointing out it all to common.

Anyone who acts without honesty, morality or integrity and then blames their actions 'cos others do it' is probably immoral, dishonest and lacks integrity to begin with and is unintelligent enough to believe they're fooling anyone else.

And who defines "morality" "dishonesty" and "integrity", in a world so inequitable and unfair as ours??

 

I'm dammed sure I don't want to.

Honesty is easy. If it ain't yours keep your thieving hands off it. And if it isn't the truth it's a lie.

 

you can't really argue about interpretations in this case. People died, people lost all the possessions. Then low life scum attempted to jump on the bandwagon to profit. 

 

There's a problem if someone has to start wondering how to define honesty, morality or integrity in this case. It's not exactly eating a couple of grapes from the display in Sainsbury's. 

Anyone involved in a false claim of losing family in that fire wants their faces plastered over billboards in the borough.

There is no truth, only perspective.

 

So the queen owns the whole country and thats OK?

 

I used to see the world as very black and white, but I've grown up since then.

 

As my post said, they are "despicable", but they are not alone and many who already have more than most are happy to play the system to get MORE.

It's ok with me until she wants to move into my home

I used to see the world as very black and white, but I've grown up since then. I apologise if my childish opinion offends.

 

As my post said, they are "despicable", but they are not alone and many who already have more than most are happy to play the system to get MORE. And there always will be. But I'd like to think that decent, honest and hardworking normal folk are still in the majority. The type who would help a neighbour rather than steal from him, put themselves out to aid others and give someone else a leg up in life. 

 

Simplistic? Probably. But once you attempt to excuse these actions, then you become part of the problem and complicit in it.
