sharkyvilla Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 The channel tunnel. Fantastic piece of engineering but queuing up is already painful, God knows what it will be like in a year's time. Today was probably the last time I'll ever go with a car to France.

I have no reason to believe you are being anything but dead serious. Am I right in thinking that? What a f****** sham if so. I was a bit shocked to hear the amount of money that was received for having a certain number of volunteers on duty, but then I thought that the money for operations has to come from somewhere. I just patrol the streets giving aid to people who obviously need it and help out at the homeless shelter/cafe. I don't work the numbers and don't have much of an idea as to what would go where and why. I do work closely with senior staff though and I have seen the 2nd in charge, a woman, literary spending her weekend scrubbing the floor by hand of a huge hall facility that we use for the homeless and sometimes events. That's just one example of a number of stories I could give. I spend from 11pm-5am volunteering for these people, I would never do that if I knew the organisation was something like The Rockefeller Foundation, a seemingly benevolent philanthropy group that is just another disgusting indictment, the greedy leading the poor astray. Fortunately I don't think the Melbourne branch is. If you are serious about your mates story, then I have to wonder, why does he work for them then?

Popular Post Designer1 Posted October 26, 2018 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted October 26, 2018 I know it really shouldn't surprise me (or piss me off) given some of the stereotypical hard of thinking divs that occasionally post on here.

Those that don't want him will look for every reason to attack him. And then when the wheels completely fall of people will slide to that side in general. In the meantime, I'd wager there's a correlation between those who didn't want him and those critical already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
