T'was The Night Before Christmas - By @Hossylass

Twas the night before Christmas and all through the House

MP’s were feasting on subsidised grouse

Their expenses were listed and nobody cared

That the cries of disabled were going unheard



The Members soon nestled in tax funded beds

While visions of riches danced in their heads

And a subservient underclass doffing its cap

Settled their brains for a long winter nap



When out in the streets there came such a clatter

They crawled from their beds to see what was the matter

Drapes cast asunder, it was clear in a flash

That the strivers were clearing the Ministerial trash



The cleaners had trudged in through 8 inches of snow

To buff and to polish the offices below

No living wage at the end of the day

Just tax payer subsidised minimum pay



And out in the doorways of numerous places

The homeless and helpless shielded their faces

Their hopes and their dreams had drifted away

Replaced by despair at another new day.



But this year at Christmas a miracle appears

An army of deviant kind volunteers

Disability Ninjas armed with the facts

Savaging proposals with a symbolic axe



And along the blade the words burn bright

“You will not destroy us, we will turn and fight”

To speak for those who’s voices are small

Voices ignored, if heard at all



Churches and Unions stood up to fight

To demand what is reasonable, and what is right



Twas the night before Christmas and all through the land

Tears are shed at what is planned

By the people who with enormous wealth

Are happy to endanger the very health

Of the people who quietly every day

Keep the country ticking away



NHS nurses and other health workers

In danger of becoming next weeks “shirkers”

But the Charities, activists and Unions united

Now they will help the lives of the blighted

The poor, the rejected, the lost in despair

We will reach out and comfort and show that we care



Twas the night before Christmas and all through the lands

The sword of truth awakens in our own hands

And when it seems to heavy to swing

Remember the miracles that Christmas can bring.

@ Anonymous 18 February 2013 18:07: Mobility scooters are exempt from vehicle tax, but if you have a class 3 scooter or powered wheelchair (capable of speeds greater than 4MPH up to 8MPH) then it should be registered with the DVLA. Also, while insurance for such vehicles isn't mandatory, it is recommended nevertheless. After all, accidents can happen no matter how careful someone is.

من أهم الطرق التي تساعد على الحفاظ على العفش عند نقله هو حسن اختيار الرافعات الخاصة برفع وانزال العفش
خاصة تلك الكهربائية والسلالم المرتفعة التى تصل إلى أقصي الأدوار التي تعمل على الحفاظ على العفش من اى كسورمن الممكن ان يحدث في حالات إنزال او رفع الأثاث بالطرق التقليدية وهذا ما تحرص شركات ونش رفع اثاث علي وجوده بشكل اساسي عند النقل.
