Default Nanny State

Firstly. Lets not make this a Vic bashing thread, as he was here when he made the statement.

Mark Webber said "It's a great country but we've got to be responsible for our actions and it's certainly a bloody nanny state when it comes to what we can do."

This guy drives all over the world. So he would know what other countrys are like to drive in.

I have to agree with him.

He also said

"I think we've got to read an instruction book when we get out of bed - what we can do and what we can't do," Webber said

"Put a yellow vest on and all that sort of stuff."

"It's certainly changed since I left here. It ****es me off coming back here to be honest.

I agree totally with him.

Unfortunatly the sheep do not - 7pm Project last night (this show just makes me so angry how dumb they are) - idiot George Negus babbling on about how dangerous it was for Hamilton to do a burnout and it was a miracle no one was killed. Yes I kid you not, this same idiot (Negus) was busted for drink driving. Pot, kettle black.
