I can't believe the rich people in the UK can't finance this sort of venture themselves. And are there no poor people in Iceland who couldn't do with some help?

It's actually kind of sad to know so many people die out of cold in a western society, 260.000 in one decade, thats almost like all Icelanders :eek:

Despite the apparent "richness" of the UK, it is actually little pockets of fat cats surrounded by vast swathes of folks sometimes just about managing to make ends meet.

There is a perception that the UK is a place to come to for a better life, but it is only a better life if you are willing to accept the benefits system which appears to benefit those who do jack all to help themselves and does absolutely bugger all for folks who have worked and paid into the system all their lives, such as our pensioners who freeze to death in the winter but for those wonderful Icelandic sweaters!

I am going to stop now, the blood is boiling and the steam has started to erupt from my ears!

Cheers
