You must stand up to the Westminster bullies

From Rebecca Thornton.
BEFORE I depart for Fantasy Island, once known as Great Britain before the EU got their claws into us, I must say how sad I am to see so many old friends either out of a job or hanging on by a thread.
The news that your fulfilment industry is to be closed down with many job losses is so unfair and hypocritical.
My dad, a Tory voter all his life, says that Cameron and Osborne, not to mention Clegg, are the most gutless bunch ever to be elected to our parliament. They are picking on a little Island like Jersey because you are a soft target and they say the millions they are going to claw back from you will help the economy -– oh no it won’t! They will hand it over to the spendthrifts in Brussels because Merkel and Sarkozy have Britain under their thumb.
My contacts in Jersey say that your States Members don’t have enough experience or bottle to challenge Osborne. Well I think your government should send a delegation to Westminster and tell George Osborne he is about to put a lot of people out of work and to get his own house in order first.
When I return on my next business trip in May I hope in my heart that all those out of work will have found jobs because Jersey folk are not the type to rely on benefit, they like to be independent.
