I spent a beautiful week with my wife in Cornwall in June 2026. The weather was mixed, but hey, it is the UK after all.
While on my sojourn, we visited the pretty town of Marazion, a town I visited over 50 years ago as a child. Whilst the town retains its charm, I was horrified that St Aubyn estates owns and runs the car parks.
There are no other car parks nearby that these thieves don't run.
Here is my gripe. After reading through (My) lengthy contractual obligations, as set out by the estate, it seems that St Aubyn have none to their customers. They are not responsible for the safety of vehicles, even though they have wardens travelling around on buggies. They are not responsible for the maintenance of the car park. The ticket machines weren't working properly, and, despite cameras photographing my car registration number, I had to input my own entry time so St Aubyn's could extract their money from my pocket. While walking along the seafront, my dog defficated. Had I left it, I would have expected a FPN. However, as a responsible pet owner, I removed the offending article placing it in the appropriate packaging I always carry on my person. To my utmost surprise, not one dog bin was available let alone an ordinary waste bin. Horror of horrors followed shortly after as my wife was in need of the public conveniences. She allighted the building at great haste due to the stench that filled the air. My gripe with St Aubyn's is, I believe justified. Whilst sitting in your luxurious castle which sits proudly on St Michael's Mount, if you're going to continue to rob the public, at least do something with the money you are extorting. Provide waste bins, provide doggy bins, make sure your cash cow ticket machines are serviced,and keep your public conveniences clean.

Too many human beings on the Planet Earth, Not enough space, Food, and Water. The Rich and powerful looking after themselves, the divide is growing ever greater day by day. Mankind will follow the path and destroy itself. The holocaust is now closer than ever before.

How many people think thier prem bond savings are safe?
Think again, all the money in prem bonds is GONE, used by governments that has used it all to maintain their public spending and borrowings to maintain the UK's parasitic, no work, mental illness, disabilities, NEATS (dont what to work), county. The UK is in resession, broke, only it dosent accept the facts.

Well, I live next door to an early 30`s couple, baby farmers with 6 kids and counting, and guess what, neither of them work, not because they can`t, but because they don`t want to and can live a comfortable life on benefit.
Both of them can afford to chain smoke, cover themselves in hideous tattoos and wear designer clothes. They have smart phones, the latest fancy new 55" TV, regular BBQ`s, regular takeaways, run a car, go on holiday etc. They can afford to keep a dog that never gets walked and is left to defecate in the garden.
All they do all day long is doss around chain smoking and drinking, sunbathing and lighting BBQ`s in the nice weather, while their kids are free to run around, inflicting noise and misery on their hard working neighbours who pay for it all.
These people enjoy luxuries that most hard working people enjoy, and all courtesy of the tax payer, they have no intention of finding work despite being more than capable, they have chosen a life on benefit and there is no wonder when just last week they were handed a 6.2% benefit rise, I see no poverty whatsoever, quite the opposite in fact.
The whole benefit system desperately needs reform, it is not fit for purpose and allows shirkers and layabouts to play the system, there needs to be change to force cheats who con the system into work. Unfortunately, this useless farce of a government are only making things worse.
