ASK yourself why do we have a UK Government. Do we need them ?
OUR OWN FAULT
A fact we can do somethng about Staff lateness 'costs the economy £9 billion every year' The study found an average of 590,000 workers in the UK show up late every day.
Each late employee loses an average of 97 minutes per month which costs British employers £305 per head every year, it added. to a total of £9 billion.
Now consider each time you do not work for just 10 minutes in a day you can more than double the figure to in excess of £18 billion every year .
Is this going to help us survive as a nation ?
MORE FACTS.......
The EU costs Britain tens of millions per day, and that’s just the membership fee. The cost of EU red tape to British business is £120 billion per year, a sum better invested in the creation of a better BRITAIN, rather than contributing to other nations and the dictatorship of Europe.
We are in a crisis with the NHS . Our government gives a fuirther 11 billion a year away, all monies needed to support our own failing economy, in perspctive is the equivilent of building THREE fully staffed Hospitals every single day.
