Truth Hurts...

I wasn't shocked to read today that the head of the suffolk council recieves £220,000 a year, which is actually £34,000 more than the Prime Minister. For a country currently intent on taxing the shit out of everything and cutting the funding behind public services they sure see the patience of their constiuents axiomatically.

I get tired of my Dad telling me about how its devolved from 20 years of people spending money they didn't have. I wasn't alive 20 years ago ok, how am i supposed to get out of bed everyday pent on living life to the fullest when i know the minute i leave further education and get a job the Government are going to take every fucking penny i hold to my name.

I can just invisage still living with my parents in 20 years, or shacking up with 4 other people just so we can avoid still being under the roof at 31 and seek any slight ounce of independence in the World. Kill me now? Yeah suicide or murder is no joke, but neither is the bullshit British politics has become.

Basically, the sorry sad truth is that as a 17 year old A-grade college student with job-prospects and a general ache to make something of myself, i have no. Fucking. Hope.
