1. Is this the Christmas bonus deadline we’re talking about? What will it be this time? Oh God, not yet another watch from Berlusconi…

   But a holiday abroad - somewhere warm, no doubt - would be nice. Perhaps a slightly different gift of some sort - Gold, Frankincense or Myrhh?

   Personally, I’m really loking forward to receiving my No 10 Downing Street Christmas card from the Holy Family this year - last year’s must have got lost in the post. And I can’t wait to see Cherie’s Christmas Address to the Nation on the box, it’ll be so nice to find out how the year has gone for her, and catch up on the family news.

   Mind you, we may have to forego the Turkey on account of the Bird Flu…..

2. People should leave Sharon alone. I mean, she started out in life as a charmless, tasteless, greedy, hypocritical scouse git. And now look at her. I think Warren Mitchell said that.

3. I AM AN 21YEAR OLD GIRL WITH AN DISABILITY. I AM FINDING IT HARD TO LOOK FOR A STABLE JOB THAT CATERS FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES. I HAVE HAD JOBS IN THE PAST WERE THE EMPLOYER HAS FOUND IT HARD TO KEEP ME ON BECAUSE OF MY DISABILITY AND MY REGULAR HOSPITAL APPOINTMENTS. I CLAIM DLA BUT IT IS NOT ENOUGH FOR ME TO LIVE ON OR TRY TO SAVE ANYTHING OUT OF IT PER MONTH. I FEEL AS IF I HAVE NOT GOT A BRIGHT FUTURE TO LOOK FORWARD TO BE CAUSE OF THIS CURRENT ON GOING SITUATION THAT I AM GOING THROUGH AND WISH THAT THERE COULD BE SOME THING DONE ABOUT THE WAY PEOPLE WITH DISABLITIES ARE LOOKED UPON WHEN IT COMES TO WORKING BECAUSE ALOT OF US CAN WORK BUT ARE LOOKED ON AS A RISK. EVEN WHEN IT COMES TO FLEXIBLE WORKING PATTERNS/ PART-TIME POSITIONS AND THE MONEY WE GET FOR WORKING IS NOT ENOUGH TO LIVE ON OR SAVE. THE WORST THING IS RETIREMENT AGE IS SET FOR 67/98 YEARS OLD SO THAT MEANS I’VE GOT SOMETHING LIKE 47 YEARS TO SAVE TOWARDS A PENSION WHICH IS NOT ALOT ESPECIALLY COMING FROM A ONE PARENT FAMILY WITH 2 BROTHER AND 2 SISTERS. NOT ALOT WILL BE SAVE TO PUT TOWARDS A PENSION. IT IS HARD FOR A PERSON WITH DISABILITIES AS IT IS FOR SOMEONE WITHOUT.
