OH, here I go again! Having produced an account of the amount of money this country gives away, which (excluding the EU) is currently £8.5bn, I read in last Saturday’s edition of the Oxford Mail, that the proposed new Bicester hospital’s funding stands in its way of being built.

This amounts to £5m – a small price to pay for a town which is growing so large.

What a ridiculous state this country is in when so much is given away, and we need projects at home, like the Bicester Hospital.

And by the way, David Cameron should raise two fingers to the European Court over the deportation refusal for Abu Qatada, whose stay in this country costs £5m or more.
