THE British Government never ceases to amaze me. Not only have they found billions of pound to wage war, it has now decided to welcome 1,000 refugees a week and find houses and accommodation for them.

But when it comes to finding a few billion pounds extra to house and accommodate our own homeless or under privileged, they can't afford the money.

Now, along with NATO, our Government does not know where to stop and by trying to save face, is planning to escalate the war. The consequences of this crazed logic don't bear thinking abut.
