Quote from: JBR on Yesterday at 11:06:20 PMThatcher was our best PM ever since Churchill.  Since the end of her tenure the country has gone downhill, slowly at first, then more noticeably under Bliar and Brown, slightly faster under a series of Conservative leaders, but rapidly since 2024 onwards.

Will we ever turn this country around again?  It all comes down to us, the voters.

Firstly, may I say sorry,  but I can't see that this tragic little boy is anything to do with Thatcher, Blair, Churchill,  or politics at all.
From what we know so far,  this man was a mental health patient in care.  What's that got to do politics?

I also feel there will be lots the public knows nothing about at the mo, too.

We have been led to believe this man had a Carer with him,  but I wonder about this part first.
There is a Care Home for people with mental health problems just around the corner from me,  and I often see them taking patients for a walk.   
These patients always have 2 carers escorting them,  not just one.  They have a carer walking one on each side of them,  which I think is far safer for all concerned. 

I expect at some point later,  we will hear more about what the parents were doing at the time, and also what the Carer was doing too.   

It all comes down to us, the voters
We need a government that'll stop the boaters
Do you think Andy'll burn 'em
Not a chance as he's their chum
He won't even bring in quotas

  She is just someone to blame.. Anyone other than those who have been running the country
for the last few years..

I had three little boys and no they weren't always holding my hand they stood near me but weren't in an iron grip and little boys run about .
They only time I have ever used reins is on a horse .

Lovely.

'Mups'   was my first ever Bedlington,  who I loved dearly, and she lived to 16 & half.
Liffey now,  is my old Mups granddaughter,  and the last of my line.

Raven,  I thought my Beddies were bad enough,  but a coat like your Maggiemay's  must have been really hard work to keep clean and groomed.
