Samsung galaxy S11

Hi all, I just want to tell you about my Samsung galaxy s 11. I work for a mobile network and have done for 2 years in Tech Support and now Upgrades. As you know Apple Iphone have been producing some tasty handsets over the last few years the trouble is Apple set the price the networks charge and the tariffs they are allowed to be sold on. For this reason the costs are roughly the same cross networks. Now unless you jailbreak your Iphone(not recommended as invalidates your warranty) you are stuck with paying for all your music,apps and videos. I for one believe that once I have purchased my handset it is mine and I put on it what I like.
In my experience over the last year many people are coming round to this way of thinking. Android therefore is becoming the market leading OS. I have the Samsung Galaxy s 11 with built in quick tap technology the handset also comes with a signal boost built in . Simply this means that when you connect to your home wifi a green house appears in the task bar boosting your mobile signal . I also have this tech in my partners Blackberry 8520 and My 9380 which is great if you live in the twilight zone for signal.
The thing with Iphone also If you are not aware is prior the 4s the insides of iphone are actually Samsung. So you see for me I would rather own a market leading handset from Samsung without the costly Apple logo on it. My GS11 also has built in 16gb of storage like the I 4s but also is expandable with upto an extra 32gb with a micro sd card and means that i already have 20gb of my own music on the handset that I can also transfer to my phone after purchasing in CD form 1st.
The samsung has the same size 1.2gb dual core processor as The 4s but has a 4.3 inch screen compared to the iphone 3.2 . The Browser on android is around 3 times faster and if you add the Opera mini browser it condenses the data  thereby using less data  and saving you money. I love Android Os its fast and reliable and the galaxy s11 has outsold the Iphone for the last 9 months.
There are also many new Android handsets such as the Htc Sensation XE with a 1.4gb dual core processor and the Dr Dre beats audio and the free headphones. The latest Sony offering the Xperia s is also pretty amazing but the New Samsung Galaxy s3 should be released soon and if its anything like the S11 It should really put the pressure on Iphone even with the iphone 5 due in the summer.
All in all The Android OS is improving all the time also with google integration and the 250.000 apps on the Play store 80% of which are free. I like that you can change the theme of your android handset to suit ones personality not to mention you can change your ringtone for each and every contact something impossible on Iphone. I could write page after page waxing lyrical about Android but luckily for you I wont. If you own an Iphone and are sick of paying through the nose for it , then try android. If you have any tech questions or would just like to tell me Im an Idiot because im not an apple sheeple then feel free .

The Budget

No surprises for me in the budget robbing the hard working in our communities while putting more money in the pockets of the rich. The new 45p rate for top earners is great because any of those earning in excess of £150.000 will already have their avoidance in place all this new rate does is gives them more money to avoid paying tax on. Now don't get me wrong if i could afford to pay an accountant to save my money I would as I believe we all would given the opportunity.

First of all how can leaders who have never had a proper job empathise with the hard working among us. You see Dave is the son of a gambler sorry stockbroker and even blue blooded if wikipedia is correct. Like many in politics today Public school education and never had a job where there was any chance of getting their lillywhite hands dirty. The mantra of  "we are all in this together" is a joke. I cant go into work and demand they pay my travel costs, or pay for my breakfast and lunch and many MPs  claim  upto £400 a month for food alone. I cant afford to eat out at lunchtime so I bring a packed lunch so why cant our MP's do the same? They eat at subsidised restaurants worth up to £5.7m a year  . Do you think this is acceptable when we are losing our jobs and paying through the nose for everything ?
Are we really all in it together when for instance our Mp's can smoke inside but for smokers of which I am not one cannot.
They call us racists when we suggest that people from eastern Europe are taking many jobs at the expense of British people who want to work. But then our politicians are not having to compete with these Immigrants for their jobs.
They complain about those claiming benefits a situation that has been created by successive governments. Our politicians have created a dependency a bit like a drug dealer giving someone free drugs and then calling them a junkie when they need more. We have seen in the paper that young people will have to work until they are 80 years old before they can retire , is it any wonder? You have women getting pregnant year in and year out by different fathers and we have to support each child for the next 18 years.  The majority of these mothers of these kids will never ever work and the fathers are not seen for dust. The whole situation is unsustainable but nothing will be done because they are all potential state dependent voters.
On April the 6th we will be able to to earn £8,105 before we have to pay any tax then next April the amount rises to £9,205 which is nice but with a possible 2 budgets after yesterdays that will be clawed back in other taxes.
Petrol is already £1.40 a litre with another 3.2p in duty going on in august and that without more rises before then. Now for me this is not a problem as I neither need or want to own a car as I cycle 30 miles a day to work and back keeping me fit and healthy, however like benefits people are rightly or wrongly dependent on their cars.
I don't smoke either but nicotine this deadly legal drug the most addictive known to man is profited by the worlds governments  and an extra 37p on a pack will make a pretty penny for our government. I for one think this is obscene and belittles our governments claims to a war on drugs. 
I don't have any kids either so I personally don't want to pay for other peoples. Now telling those that pay a fortune in taxes ie those earning more than £50.000 a year that they will no longer be getting something THEY DO pay for is not the best way to motivate people to work hard.

My real problem though is the government we have in place. Now for me the name of the party is now irrelevant  Labour , Conservative Lib Dems are all the same which really explains the hung parliament at the election. Dave lets face it is just Tony B liar with a blue tie. The only reason he is prime minister is that Nick Clegg preferred to do an under the table deal with him instead of Gordon Brown and the Labour party. The truth of the matter is we trust none of them but in general the British electorate are cowards and will still vote for where their perceived class affiliation directs them or the party their Parents, Grandparents or great grandparents voted for. Until the electorate use their brains things will never change. The amount of people I know that say we need to be out of the EU which is costing us £50m a day and is basicly a dictatorship ruled over us by the Germans and to a smaller degree the French. The same germany that tried and failed thanks to millions of brave men and women to conquer us and the rest of Europe twice in the last hundred years with guns, bombs and tanks have now succeded with a pen. We in last few months have seen what this dictatorship has done in 2 countries Greece and Italy 2 elected officials removed and 2 Euro huggers put in their place. Why are we in general blind to these facts? Just like Britain they now have in place Unelected prime ministers. The Eu is an unelected body living off hard working Europeans suffering hardship while they eat and drink and Travel at the peoples expense. Once again just like our parliament they are allowed to smoke in the building but disallow ordinary smokers thruout Europe to do the same. Truly a dictatorship.
OUr citizens need to wake up and stop taking all this lying down , we as a nation need to take our country back before its too late.
