batman Posted August 20, 2004 Posted August 20, 2004 Has anyone ever noticed how corrupt this little island is? The Government is run by people who feel they are so big and important and only care about money. In the road that I live some asshole decided he wanted a huge extension built on his house, meaning that he would have hardly any garden left. A lot of people living around the house complained because it would surely reduce the value of neighbouring properties. It would be an eyesore and leave people with no privacy, our new neighbour could have just bought a bigger house. Despite all the protest, the plans were passed, thanks to having a few friends working in higher places and with a bit of extra money.
ykstarr Posted August 20, 2004 Posted August 20, 2004 of course it is corrupt. every place is corrupt, its just that we see it more cause its a small island.

jim Posted August 22, 2004 Posted August 22, 2004 STOP THAT NOW! We've lost forums for less in the past. Hell you'll mention the right hon' Ned next then you'll know.
=^..^= Posted August 22, 2004 Posted August 22, 2004 If it didn't contravene building regs, and you haven't said that it did just that people protested, then why shouldn't it be passed ?
