Is a second national lockdown for vulnerable over 50s the right way forward?Our son and daughter live in Scotland consequently we haven't seen them since Christmas and we all abided by the rules in England and Scotland. There have been no cases near us because we abided by the rules. I have recently had an accident and would love to see them I do not feel it is fair to ask us to isolate furtherViewDate:

Do Millennials deserve £10K for doing nothing?When we got married we had to save for a deposit doing without many luxuries e.g. A car, nights out - we also had many second hand items of furniture to furnish our home until we could afford to buy new, it was a struggle but we did it and it makes you appreciate what you have now. Nobody seems to want to put any effort into any thing these days and they seem to feel that we should just roll over and die so they can have everything they want without any effortViewDate:

Should the NHS provide better mental health treatment options for depression?I do feel that the NHS is being over burdened with all our modern day illnesses, perhaps it is time to go back to basics and look at what is provided for free and the people that receive it. Mental health is a terrible illness and should be helped in every way possible but so are many other forms of illness which do we priorities?ViewDate:

Are gender neutral passports a step towards true equality, or a step too far?I think we should all walk a mile in someone else's shoes and feel what they feel before we make cruel comments.ViewDate:

Are the youth of today in too much of a hurry to turn grey?I think it's a fashion statement that will change when the next craze comes in. I remember having grey highlights put in my hair at 21 now I am lucky if I can find a dark hair on my head.ViewDate:

Do you see the benefits of mindfulness and meditation?I started doing basic yoga when I retired which was difficult at first always having had such a busy life but now to be able to listen to the waves and birds singing is very relaxing and I do feel better after the lesson.ViewDate:

Do you use vitamins and supplements?I take vitamin D as I am told I don't get enough sunshine - I think a month in the sun somewhere might also do the trickViewDate:

Does the country need a new 'caretaker' prime minister?Philip Hammond is all for Europe and not the U.K. Theresa May made a terrible mistake listening to the wrong people but she is passionate about the UK and a fair deal for all. We all need to support her especially the Media specifically the BBC . I would not vote Conservative again if it reverted back to being a boys club for the privileged few.ViewDate:

Has Theresa May's power evaporated?The dementia tax was the cause of her demise, most of us have already paid tax throughout our working lives and feel it is wrong to be charged again. She should have halved over sea's aid and given the rest to the NHS and dementia care, then she would have got her landslide victory. I still think she is the best person for Brexit, electing Jeremy Corbin just gave the keys of the UK to the EUViewDate:

Should the government be spending tax payers money on EU Leaflets with a one sided view?It is supposed to be a free vote with relevant information for and against - this is not what we are being bombarded withViewDate:

HM Government mail shot re 'Brexit"Received my leaflet it tells you absolutely nothing I will be sending it back. A complete waste of money when so many services are being cut.
