Should all pensioners over 75 be entitled to a free TV licence?not 'all' pensioners are rich. A lot live on a state pension which is barely adequate. And this barely adequate pension is what they get for not being told the true facts about pensions way back in the 70s.ViewDate:

Would you consider housemates later in life?No, I appreciate my solitude, though sometimes it would be nice to have company and to share expenses. I have lived in bed sits, and flats but the nearest I would get to that now, is living in a small flat in a communal building where there would be a choice to use the communal lounge etc.ViewDate:

Should women still change their name when they get married?Surely it is up to the people concerned. If it is too long to be hyphenated why not just add the first letter of the partners surname; as in Fred B(rown) Smith; Mary G(reen) Smith. There is always a way through a challenge.ViewDate:

Do you drink a cup of coffee every day?I drink coffee occasionally, I find a lot of coffees are very bitter and I very nearly always have to take it with sugar. I do enjoy a cup of coffee made with hot milk at home, where I can regulate the amount of coffee that goes into the drink. As an everyday drink, it is not for me.ViewDate:

Should Theresa May join Jeremy Corbyn tonight in the TV debate?By not appearing she gives the impression that she is afraid of debate. Answering questions to people she meets in the street gives a very restricted overview of what and how the public think, and prevents a bigger audience knowing her views and answers on prominent questions. -
