Oh wow. Are strikes typical in the UK? It doesn't seem like we hear about many of them.

Strikes are pretty common these day's , people are worried about there future simple. People are are living in fuel poverty not got enough money to eat being made homeless on a daily basis this is the real Europe/UK.Unemployment is high, i feel sorry for the youngsters.What does there future hold? Instead of bailing out banks who are mostly to blame for the mess the government can help people by maybe buying there mortgages and renting them back there house.Do something to help the people so they are not evicted.Time for government pen pushers to start earning there wages. I can only assume all these problems can have a knock on effect to the rest of the world.
