  I don't usually post about politics and no doubt I will get hammered for this one, so here goes.
  And don't forget.....WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER.
  
  659.000, the number of public service jobs lost through coalition cuts.
  
  240, the record number of payday loan companies fleecing the poor at a maximum of 4.000% interest.
  
  40.000, rich individuals and businesses avoiding some £10.2 billion in tax annually.
  
  100 new aggressive tax avoidance schemes every year, despite government " crackdown "
  
  90 Million, the annual cost of just 650 MPs expenses..
  
  Yes doesn't it feel good to be as one.

  Sorry Howie but I'm really P'd off.
  
  I earn so I pay tax, I have to use a lot of fuel so I pay more tax, to pay for that fuel I do a lot of overtime and once again I'm hammered in tax. And they tell us we should save for our old age. NOT a chance in Hell.
  
  And then you wonder why people sit at home and claim benefits.

  we can't get away from the fact that we are becoming a more divided society than ever. we keep hearing about the top brass awarding themselves massive pay rises and bonuses for under performing, if they are so useless that they get the order of the boot then a massive pay off will ensue.
  
  each day that passes has news of yet another tax avoidance scheme for the seriously rich to exploit, mr and mrs average on paye have to pay their full whack.

  As already stated Howard I NEVER post on these threads.
  
  I think for me to do this there must be a change in the air, with me and millions of others.
  
  YOU can't keep fleecing the public and look down on them all the time, there will be a reaction at some point and I have a feeling it will be bad.

  It's very easy to sit in a position of power and say " get off your backside and work " Many would like to but the work is not there, the word OVERPOPULATED comes to mind which takes us onto another subject.

  been banging on about that for some years on here ian, all projected forecasts show a continued rise over the next 20 years.
  
  the next generation will have to be a lot smaller.

  Will have to wait for the main players to come in on this thread and shoot us all to pieces, or try.
  
  I think this time I'm going to go for it. I have 3 contenders in mind and I promise I'll behave, ( I think )
  
  Come on then boys and the odd lady,

  I hate politics Keith, I hate and never will be mugged, but how can I get rid of the tossers that mug me?
  Don't tell me to vote cos the incoming muggers will do the same as the last muggers, the only legalised Muggers on the planet and we ( sorry you ) vote them all in. lmao

  It's about shining the lights on the insects Ian
  
  The more people look at what they do the les they mug us of
  
  Example the British talk football and the whether = big muggings of
  
  The French talk politics = les mugging of
  
  Politician are dangerous they can stick a gun on your back (not theirs)
  And send you to war.
  
  Ps. especial dicks like Blair.
