Dosen’t Add Up
As a number of educational establisments come under threat of being closed,in an attempt to save money and balance the budget,let us wander over to the estimated £600 million to bring back trams to Edinburgh. this is a total and complete waste of money,money that would better off being spent educating our children and utilising these facilities for the betterment of the communitites they serve.
Never in the history of Edinburgh political cock-ups and there has been a few, has there been a bigger cock-up than this. Schools and community centres play a major role in providing all round services to communities,on the other hand the proposed trams service nothing and nobody except the punters who will make a few quid out of it. To add salt to the wounds the demonstrators where not allowed to make any kind of representation to argue their case,democracy in action is it not.
Labour where rightly tossed out because they had become corrupt with power leaving unelected officials to run the city while the then ruling group played at being bigger than they really where. While our already crappy roads are being dug up for god knowes what our schools and community centres and yes they are our’s are being undermined and threatened,what kind of message does that send out to the Edinburgh electorate, yes we can have trams at any cost because we the politicians want them to satisfy some stupid logic but we will close schools and centres because we have to save money.
It’s clear some of these part time politicians don,t have any kind of idea what the impact of such closers would be,but they are more than willing to do what it takes to have even more congestion on the roads and money is no object. As the chattering classes wave their party credentials in the air bleating about the lack of understanding that these terrible working class types have,it dosen’t take much understanding to realise when you are being robbed so we can have costly trams clogging up our pot holed ridden roads.
When will politicians grow balls and stand up for what is right and fair. We already pay very high council tax for services which if take a close look in some of the disadvantaged housing schemes seems a joke,we are now told you will continue to pay high council tax but for less sevices but we will have the trams to fall back on,lucky us.
It is crystal clear that the majority of Edinburgh citizens don’t want this waste of money tram system but they do wnat schools and community centres. But the politicians ignore that for their own opinions,opinions they don’t have to pay for. Just down the road from the hallowed chambers the local community council has been fighting a battle to preserve the old town from becoming a tourist piss pot,will anybody listen to them dosen’t look like it as plans for yet another hotel are stream rollered ahead.
We don’t need another bloody hotel employing cheap labour immigrants but people power is ignored and replaced by we will do what we want politics. But we must look after the tourists and make sure they are catered for while our citizens and what they want is ignored. What is to become of our childrens education and their future,why are our communities shit on time after time and are the victims of failed policies.
Those who can least afford to live in this city are the ones who suffer the most. They are at the mercy of ruthless politics which couldn’t give a toss about the poorest and weakest.Politicians don’t represent us just themselves and party dogma. Ironically one of the first tram links was to be the North Edinburgh link which took in Granton which has one of the highest unemployment levels in the country,some of the worst housing and second class services.
We had expected nothing else from the corrupt bunch in charge and we where not disappointed. Money needs to be properly spent and invested in these and other poor areas of the city to give people an opportunity to breath and expand their ideas. Our communities are in a state of decay and have been for years. We don’t need trams or any other fancy pie in the sky idea,we require visionary thinking coupled with the investment required to bring our deprived communities to life,not ignored and swept under the carpet.

i couldnt agree more , the trams a huge was of money which could have been spent elsewhere , ive spoken to dozens of people about it and not one agrees ,
i did see a survey saying 500 edinburgers and 1000 outsiders within a hour of the city ( why more outside ) say it will enhance things …who the hell did they ask ????
lets guess as we are heading into a recession the tram money will vanish or only be able to build one line …
The people making the decisions dont actually live in edinburgh or are incomers who`ve fallen for the romantic side of life of the tram in edinburgh , skipping on and off during the festival & cafe society on a summers eve…..
so whats happening to the empty lrt buses on the roads that clog the traffic between 930 am 330pm daily - no one mentions that ??
I didnt realise edinburgh was that big …..
well my spelling much better than my last post - must`ve been on something !!!

What’s up all! I promised to leave feedback on the super deluxe hydroponics system I bought from Dealzer.com. Well, here it is. I bought the hydroponic system on September 1st. By the time it arrived, I had all my plans ready as far as the plants I have here to grow with. To unpack it (it came fully assembled) and plug it in - its fully automated - and to set my initial plants up, it took me about 30 minutes. I bought this with a Co2 system as well. Lo and behold this box is not only growing my plants at a rate of 1 inch per day, but by the time my first harvest came in, the younger plants were tall enough to move to the flowering chamber. This is pretty good and my first experience with a proper hydroponics system.
Well, lets see…. I can’t really find a single problem with this box, except maybe that it takes 2 people to move it around the condo. But other than that, I haven’t seen a grow box looking this good before. I have made a few myself and bought from local dealers, but this is the best of the best. Everything from the clone chamber to the size is very well done. The customer service is very easy to deal with and very friendly. The system also comes with lock and key for security and came fully concealed.
Anyway, if you wanted a review, you got one. I give this company a 9.5 out of 10 rating.
I can’t say their perfect, but who is? Overall it was a good deal. Here their phone number if you need it. 888-HYDRO-81 and their website name is Dealzer.com grow box.
