Are you aware that the average working class UK citizen has 78 pounds out of every 100 pounds he/she earns landing up in Government coffers via both direct and indirect taxation? And to think they want more from us in Greenhouse gases taxation, road charging etc etc!!!!! These are NOT made up figures - this is FACT!
We will end up being better off by giving the Government our wage packets and getting pocket money from them.

Its a total piss take,i wouldn't mind so much,if our hard earned tax wasn't spent on frigging lazy gits that have never worked a day in their life and have no intention of ever doing so,and i hate the fact my tax goes toward supporting immigrants who have never contributed jack to this country,i could go on and on,very sore point with me!

I have said many times before the culture of the Labour Party is tax and spend and always has been. We were all conned in 1997 and since by Tony Bliar and his fairy tales of how New Labour were different. They are different in the fact that we now pay more tax than ever before. Far from this country being in a stable financial situation it is anything but. The money that is wasted should be unbelievable but it's not. Over seven million pounds spent to tell civil servants how to keep their desks tidy.Ten million pounds wasted in changing the name of a Health Authority,I could go on but if you read the daily papers you'll see examples of waste every day of the week.

Well done you've spotted the direction taken by Labour fiscally since the party was invented. Pretty similar to the Soviet Communist Party isn't it?
Just remember that a large proportion, probably 25% is taken by Brussels for the gravy train.

Why do you think there is such a brain drain in the UK, because they are smart enough to see what is happening, and are leaving to other countries at record rates, about 1000 a day. This spring, my family and I are joining them. Let the government reap the destruction they have sown. I'll watch from the sidelines.

You got it right there.
They want YOUR pay packet and hand it back, just like pocket money.
'If your a good boy, you can have a tenner to go to the pub, mind you, £8 of that I will have back in tax anyway.'
Whoever holds the purse strings , holds the power.
