Like most citizens of this land of ours, many people are making New Year resolutions. I would just like to add my own for the Government to think about, whoever it is in power.

Number one: Stop interfering in the country’s problems.

Number two: Scrap the outdated monarchy, once and for all.

Number three: Get rid of USA influence that is swamping the British way of life.

Number four: Get out of the EU.

Number five: Scrap the overseas aid and look after our own aid.

Number six: Have an NHS what applies only to those people who, over the years, have paid in. The immigrants should pay for all treatment.

That is my personal wish to those in power. But, like thousands of those like-minded people who will be brushed aside and brainwashed by political drivel, the so-called celebs, royalists and mega rich bosses will carry on in 2015 and for years to come, as they always do.

If only we had an alternative to the present system. Ah well I can always dream can’t I?
