@GuidoFawkes@GoodwinMJ Understand all the outrage and disgust with what seems to happen in this country on a daily basis but what will ever get done about it all? Outrage on social media and voicing our disapproval(myself included) falls on deaf ears and it just carries on. Not sure of the answer.
@bootlegger1974 Don't always appreciate what we have on our doorstep when we see North Wales daily but it truly is a beautiful place at times 💙 When it's pissing down though it's dull as ditch water 🤣
@EssexPR As disgusting as it all is, what exactly can be done about all this? People complain, protest and broadcast outrage but nothing will ever change what does on. I'm not saying I know the answer but nothing in this country ever changes. I weep for our children and grandchildren 😔
Taxes
OH …UNITED KINGDOM
This is very interesting.
If I give you £1 billion and you stand on a street corner handing out £1 per second, twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, you would still not have handed out £1 billion after 31 years!
Now read on. This is true and rather hard to really understand.
The next time you hear a politician use the word 'billion' in a casual manner, think about whether you want the 'politicians' spending YOUR tax money.
A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, but one advertising agency did a good job of putting that figure into some perspective in one of its releases.
1. A billion seconds ago, it was 1959.
2. A billion minutes ago, Jesus was alive.
3. A billion hours ago, our ancestors were living in the Stone Age.
4. A billion days ago, no-one walked on the earth on two feet.
5. A billion Pounds ago was only 13 hours and 12 minutes, at the rate our present government is spending it.

STILL THINK THIS IS FUNNY?
Not one of these taxes existed 60 years ago, and our nation was one of the most prosperous in the world.
We had absolutely no national debt.
We had the largest middle class in the world. A criminal’s life was uncomfortable. What on earth happened?
This club is the sum of its supporters. Before we showed up they’d saved it multiple times. It’s a temple as much as a football pitch. @Wrexham_AFC has been one of the greatest experiences of my life. It’s hard to avoid immediately starting work on next season - but important to take the moment in… Looking back and looking forward feels really good right now. I think I speak for @RMcElhenney when I say, thank you for the greatest four years and here’s to many more.
