- Last weekend Trafalgar Square, London, was the venue for a protest aimed at holding the Labour Government to its election pledge to reduce child poverty. What? You couldn't be arsed turning up? You heartless bastards, how could you ignore the plight of those poor children? I missed it too actually, not through indifference or inertia but by... more

- We spend our days doing what we are told. Jumping through hoops set out for us by the status quo. We are told go to school, we are told to become educated, we are told to get vocational training, we are told to go to University so we too can become "productive members of society". We get a job pay taxes and have our priorities moulded by the... more

- So, like I said, I don't like travelling. I found this out about five years ago on a standard issue trip around Eastern Europe. Yeah, I had some fun, but mostly it was miserable and I spend most of the time looking forward to getting home. Snapped pictures of the things I should snap pictures of, went to the places my guidebook told me to go to... more

- It all keeps going around my head. I've decided to do a list - and this is the safest way of keeping it!! 1. I start the last course of my degree in a couple of months. Unfortunately its not the degree I wanted to do - that one involved going away one week a year and I was told I wasn't allowed to go away. I still want to do my earth sciences... more

- Could debt consolidation help with the credit crunch?
- by debtFAQ
- in debtFAQ.blog.co.uk
- 35 days old
- In the last six months, almost half of all applications for credit cards have been turned down. Although rejections are a normal part of the application process, industry experts point out that they've risen 17% since mid-2007. For people who rely on easy access to credit, it's a symptom of the credit crunch that promises tough times ahead... more

- This week, I finally woke up to the fact that there is no point still clinging to the illusion that the money in my ISA account will one day be spent on a dream holiday, as: (1) at my current savings rate, I will only get as far as Bournemouth or will have to settle for a Gaga holiday for the over-nineties. (2) There seems little point in having... more

- Shock, Horror! Kerry Katona Declared Bankrupt.

- 44 days old
- Worst of all the terrible news last week was that Kerry Katona was declared bankrupt. The ex-Atomic Kitten, ex-Queen of the Jungle and current face of Iceland Freezer Stores (and possible future face of Cash Converters) lost her battle with the Inland Revenue after having paid off all but £80,000 of a $450k debt. A brighter gil would have held... more

- I have an account with Connect Me Anywhere and they now let you buy a telephone number for 2 Euros per month - BUT THIS IS NO NORMAL NUMBER! It doesn't need to be attached to your house or wired up or anything and it connects whoever calls it to which ever phone you are using at the time. Confused?! Here's my case: I travel around a lot, moving... more

- Credit Crunch Anger
- by twostepsforward
- in mindjouney.blog.co.uk
- 58 days old
- The 'Credit Crunch' angers me, because the system has taken our money, gambled with it, and lost- and as a result it is us that have to bail them out because the treasury believe the disease is less painful than the cure. And what is worse- virtually no one has lost their jobs: the same people who gambled our deposits, pensions, savings etc. are... more
