THIS country is in a sorry state. We have an all-time high crime rate, the NHS on the verge of collapse, a chaotic and unreliable transport system, a failing education system and a country awash with asylum seekers.

Also, pensioners are expected to live off a pittance, compared to the average wage and cost of living of today.

The reason for all this is because the country is being run by a team of dunderheads.

And what about the team that leads Blackburn?

Enough said.
