Thanks for sharing number 7 mate, it's a picture I really didn't need painting. I've now got an image in my head of a fat bloke in shorts drinking rough cider in a garden

Well if you wanted to find something good about the poll tax it's that its implementation was the downfall of Thatcher.
Why should anyone who doesn't own a home or rent a home pay anything?
Yes, he did.even 4 year olds for example? they put things in the bin. Like Grandad's trainers
So would you be happy if your son/daughter/wife was employed on an exploitative zero hours contract and was reliant on top ups from the benefit system to make ends meet?
It's supporting a business after all
Gasp, Gasp and double Gasp, surely and I am shaking with disbelief now terrance, your not, surely not, Gasp defending the ------Poll Tax????? Gasp
even 5 year olds for example? they put things in the bin.
Sadly most people I talk to don't understand the significance of both the deficit, structural debt and how large our overall debt is. Also in all the campaigning so far it is barely recognised as a problem. Unless we produce a surplus and soon, my childrens futures are screwed. I do laugh at some of the proposed solutions though. i.e. Spend more money on "investments" and tax the rich..... Like there are enough rich people who won't see that comingThe UK racked up a deficit of 5.7 per cent of gross domestic product last year while the national debt soared to 89.4 per cent of national income, according to Eurostat. Cyprus and Spain were the only countries in the European Union to borrow more as a proportion of national income - underlining the British government's abject failure to live within its means.

Sorry for spelling mistakes but I can not spell
The problem with government is they are like buying a new tool you spend weeks reading about them and choosing what you think is the best one then for the first day or so you think it's great and love it. Then after the honeymoon period is over you realise that your just kidding yourself and in reality this is none better than the tool you used before in fact the old one was more comfortable to use but by now it's too late to go back because now the apprentice has your old tool. Then every day you find more reasons you want your old one back so the next chance you get you buy the upgrade to your old tool but no matter what it's never going to be your old tool. The only way we are ever going to get what we want in government is to get the best we can and then make it ours by moulding it to what we want just as we do with everything else we have.
