Ms Bisknell - when are you and the likes of you going to 'get it' ? People have had enough of you and what you represent.

I work hard all day, my wife works hard all day - I stacked shelves to put myself through university - I had no grant and I had to pay my tuition fees myself because as a nurse, it was deemed she earned too much as a student nurse !!

Even now, other than the child benefit that everyone with a child receives, we seem to have managed to bring up our children with the minimum of state intervention and support which is just as it should be, if you can't do that what on earth are you doing having children?

They are polite and well intentioned children, they do not hang around the streets at night drinking, swearing or smoking like the many that pass my house most evenings who think nothing of invading my space with profanity and a general air of menace they lend my street.

Unlike these miscreants, my children fill their time with hobbies and activities designed to challenge them and expand upon their educational activities during the school day and as a parent I support them - it is not the role of a government to do that. Please focus on delivering me what I need to do that, a secure economy and prices for the essentials we can afford - petrol, food, utilities and a sustainable environment. I require nothing more from you.

Sure Start, paid for by me and the likes of me, is designed to fill the gap that children having children caused in the first place - the same culture of dependency created by the rotten excuse of a government we have now that encouraged them that they were better off having children rather than working hard and creating a life of meaning and value for themselves before having children, why bother with this when the state will pick up the bill? Sure Start is just another 'get of jail' card for people who can't be bothered to do things properly in the first place. It's a sticking plaster for a generation of people
