Social Workers – poncy, ineffectual and clueless

I make no apology for my sincerely held conviction that Social Workers, along with MP’s, Councillors, Estate Agents and Solicitors, must be amongst the most despised and least productive - yet overpaid members of our society. Of these groups, I would argue that Social Workers actually come in at number one in this ‘hit parade’ of ineptitude.

Beggar off - take the burger or sling yer hook!

Most of us…ok then, all of us loath them…beggars! 

They come up to you demanding money and most of the time we have more than an inkling that as soon as we have dispensed our charitable contribution toward their wellbeing, they are liable to pop down to the local off license to get a four pack of Tennant’s Super.

Maybe we should actually look up to the French!

Recent events have caused me to reflect upon some long held and cherished beliefs…and I have been shocked to find that after all these years, I have probably been very ignorant and very badly mistaken!

The two events that have caused such a fundamental shift in my thinking, are the recent public transport strikes in France and Gordon Brown’s agreement to the thinly veiled ‘EU Constitution’.
