This is the best analogy yet with a solution for the mess that the UK is now in economically.
I bought a bird feeder. I hung it in my back garden and filled it with seed.
Within a week we had lots of birds taking advantage of the continuous flow of free and easily accessible food.
But then the birds started… Building nests in the shed, in the eaves,in the fences and in my garden bushes.
Then came the shit. It was everywhere,on the patio,on the chairs,the table,windows..everywhere!
Then some of the birds turned mean. They would dive bomb me and try to peck me even though I had fed them out of my own pocket.
And others birds were boisterous and loud. They sat on the feeder and squawked and screamed at all hours of the day and night And demanded that I fill it when it got low on food.
After a while,I couldn't even sit in my own back garden anymore. So I took down the Bird feeder and in three days the birds were gone. I cleaned up their mess and took down the many nests they had built all over the garden.
Soon,the back yard was like It used to be ..... Quiet,serene.... And no one demanding their rights to a free meal.
Now let's see......
Our government gives out Free food,subsidised housing,free medical care and free education, and allows anyone born here to be an automatic citizen.
Then the illegal’s came by the hundreds of thousands. Suddenly our taxes went up to pay for free services,small apartments are housing 5 families,you have to wait 6 hours to be seen by an emergency room doctor,your child's second grade class is behind other schools because over half the class doesn't speak English.
Corn Flakes now come in a bilingual box,I have to
press one to hear my bank talk to me in English,and people waving flags other than ”ours” are squawking and screaming in the streets,demanding more rights and free liberties.
Just my opinion,but maybe it's time for the government to take down the bird feeder.
@MTNza how does an upgrade on an account that is 15+years old take 2.5 week to approve?? Please don't tell me to direct this to your sales team as they clearly have been instructed to repeat & rinse the same vague message with absolutely no outcome. Time to move our account?
@QuickBooks you have a problem with your system this morning... Can't add attachments to invoices. It's month-end & for some year-end!! Please sort out as URGENT
Surfski champ @OscarChalupsky has been a Discovery Health member for years. So, when it refused to pay the full cost for a cancer drug, he didn't question it and paid the co-payments. Until @campaign4cancer reached out to him... #CarteBlanche@ermbates
@helenzille Pop past Northriding to see just how shocking things are. We have potholes that can pass for swimming pools, robots that are there as decoration, vagrants that pass themselves off as pointsmen & street lights that the electricians probably forgot to connect.
