Title: Petition
Post by: Barman on March 09, 2009, 09:22:59 PM
I was thinking of starting a petition on the Number 10 web site...

Something along the lines of demanding that whenever the government committed exty-billion Pounds of new money to something or other or was helping with umpty million Pounds or was contributing so-many million Pounds thay had to actually call it Taxpayer's Money, not some magic money-poy money that the government owned or generated...

You could also add a demand that all goods and services where clearly marked with the percentage of their cost that was made up of tax and duty... Not an unreasonable demand but it would look amazing on petrol pumps and bottles of spirits...

What thinks you...?

I think that you should have a look at tonights Dispatches. Its been all about how the government has been squandering our money. Just make sure you have a fire extinguisher handy as your piss will hit supernova temp.
