| Message | This again shows TCC true colours, the fact is that pensions are extremely important to everyone, and that if people didnt have pensions, like the TCC does not want them too, then they would end up being either taken into care against their will, or left to die. Gambling is another issue entirely. This shows TCC has lost the arguement on this issue,. |
