A vile trend has been silently creeping up on us for some years now, a trend so insidious that it threatens to turn us all into a nation of compliant automatons…the nanny state.
The authorities have at every turn been trying to absolve us of any personal responsibility…and more importantly, of any need to make independent decisions of our own by legislating for stupidity and rewarding ‘victim mindsets’.

There is famous quotation, ‘manners maketh the man’ and never were truer words ever spoken; this applies especially to two increasingly underused but vitally important words, words that form the cornerstone of all civilised interaction…please and thank you.
There is no interaction that cannot fail but to end amicably with the reciprocal use of these vital but neglected words and increasingly, there is a certain class of worker who seem to have lost the art of their use…shop assistants.
