Doesn't seem a lot really

£25,000 fund to help East Lancashire MPs with mental health problems (From Lancashire Telegraph)

£25,000 doesn't sound a lot really, but I suppose every little helps

I'll bet there's a long queue already.
After all, out of the 600+ of them most need treatment for illusions of grandeur.

You really couldn't make it up

In a week when both East Lancashire and Fylde healthcare has been rubbished...the trough eating scum that pass for politicians nowadays get themselves a specialist mental health doctor with a potential maximum patient list of 650 people.

The rest of us plebs are left hanging on the phone for 30 minutes on a Monday morning waiting to make an appointment with an overworked and underfunded Doctor.

Cuts to everything across the board except for politicians, who vote themselves perk after perk after perk....they make me sick!

Who decides on why these jokers get this ?? Oh hang on the very mental people who want it !!!

Whilst the rest of society is told it's a tough old world others have the place sewn up.

To be honest Mick I doubt if £25,000 would be enough for one mod

So politicians are elected to represent us and do the best for us. Wouldnt it be great if in the future technology allows us to vote on individual issues rather than for politicians. So Saturday nights could be "make the laws" night where you actually vote for real stuff rather than gameshows. I bet more people voted in X Factor finals than elections.

send them to atos and stop their money

[accyman]

hang on according to ATOS who cameron swears by mental illness isnt real or so they seem to think seen as they are forcing people who are mentally ill off benefit and in some cases pushing them to suicide.

so how can they justify this if they back a company that dosnt believe in mental illness ?

Ya that's one reason they don't let the general public make the laws

I think the general public are more in touch with the country than those we vote for to represent us. Why should we not have a vote on major issues oh I tell you why because we wouldn't need the politicians then !!!

Because the general public always take the simplistic view of everything, if the world were allowed to run itself what a mess we'd be in, you only have to pop round and take a look at the way some people are prepared to live, when some are quite happy to walk round their home with dog crap on the carpets rubbish all over the place dishes piled up in the sink and other delights, and you'd let these people make live changing decisions, sorry Shurm I don't think so
