I thought that nothing would surprise me any more but I was wrong. The Country has no money and great cuts are needed but there is enough to fund a survey to measure our happines. Why? Doesn't anybody listen to the news? The students are the first to show their level of happiness and it doesn't take much intelligence to realise that the needle on the meter is not very high. Hopefully they won't be the last. Perhaps we need a rousing song to cheer us up; how about The Internationale "Arise ye starvelings from your Slumbers". At least the youger element has woken up. Perhaps the rest of us will stir ourselves.
And, what a strange pronouncement from our PM. He is, apparently unhappy about the BBC showing a programme about the possibility of buying a World Cup venue. Can this be a message that commercial necessity overrides morality?
