It’s time to put an end to the blame game

AS the Government’s money comes from the people who pay tax, then it is taxpayers’ money that everyone wants.

The price of oil goes up all over the world - but it is the Government that’ s solely to blame.

The supermarkets put up prices, but it’s the same refrain - it’s the Government’s fault. Take a look at trolleys in the supermarkets full to overflowing, and not all necessary purchases.

Then there are asylum seekers, economic migrants and others all seeking help and money. If they don’t get it, it’s racism.

It’s about time this country grew up. If people buy houses and cars that are too expensive for them, that is their problem - not the Government’s.

I’m sick to death of the blame game. People are responsible for their own lives and where they genuinely need help, it is there for them.

Otherwise spare us the refrain.
