we want cheaper holidays in club Tropicana - petition to Prime minister hope GM dose not mind 24.02.14

supply will reach demand
this is a myth no doubt
we need this useless government to command
be in control like "Covonia" use some clout.
we are all feeling the rip
it is daylight robbery
so the poor are refused a holiday trip
the rich carry on and bathe in snobbery.
everyone is entitled to a break
we need this equal opportunity
just because you earn less you are no fake
we are all meant to be the same in this community.
i hear there is a online petition
will i help or smudge
raising awareness is my only condition
if i can contribute change there will be no grudge.
act now prime-minister
holidays for all don't snub
that is unless you are being deliberately sinister
and you only want exclusive rich people in the " Tropicana" club.



(yes i have used George in yet one more poem, but no i will not try and get this to him, and i will say sorry if he feels i am disrespecting his talent, this is not the case and i am just bringing in today's news with one of his songs he did. this aside i really feel the people behind this petition have a justified case.and i have tried my hardest to get this to them out of respect.the question is - will the PM give us cheaper holidays ?
if you want a glimpse of club Tropicana please visit here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYX0sjP6Za8&feature=kp or if you would like to add your 10 cents on this issue i would be most grateful and more so if a few reply's could rhyme as i love reading them. ps if i was to bump into a GM associate, i would simply say - the drinks are FREE - waterlow - sorry i am barking.do you need a diffrent perspective on this story ?http://www.mirror.co.uk/lifestyle/tr...t-trap-2272236 if you would like to sign this e-petition you can do so here http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/46455 )

God almighty............people will protest about anything these days !!!

I think the Govt needs to rule on this one, the only fair way to solve this I think is for the Govt to say to Holiday Companies yes you have a guaranteed demand for holidays due holiday half terms BUT you cannot charge more than 15% on top of the price for non half term weeks (either side of the half term week).

That way they still make a bit of extra money as demand is high BUT not a license to charge 50% or higher on top of normal rates.

Well then I'm a **** parent.... I feel the companies shouldn't be so exploitative of families, and incidentally single parent families who get a bad deal when it comes to hols as everything is always based on two adults.

Either allow people to take their kids away during term time, or make teachers take INSET days during their long, loooooong holidays. Seems a bit inconsistent to me to criticise parents for kids missing school in term time, only for teachers to take a day off for training when they only work 36 weeks out of 52.
