i voted for the libs again but i have been becoming disalusioned with em. they come out with great policies, then change em, change em again, f with them some more, and not tell anybody. they never seem to get much good press (partly i think because if they got in power the press would be paying more in taxes) and when they do promote themselfs they leave out areas of the policy that seem to have mass apeal. a policy they f'd with really annoyed me, the council tax thing. now i remeber reading about that maybe 2 years ago. they inatially proposed to cut the council tax completely. they were gonna pay for it by putting a small increase in the general pops income tax, and some of the money they would have left over by increasing the tax to the top 25 percent earners. sounds good i think + saves money as you dont need to route your councill tax money through your local tax office, send it to london, then it gets sent back to your council, a wastefull procedure.
they changed that to say that they change the council tax to a local authorities tax.
bstrds.
that and the fact that charles kennedey is a piss head doesnt help. not that i have a problem with pissheads. but you have to consider the general populations view on a leader. we need a young , strong, braniac at the ehad of the liberals. preferably a genius econimist 2,
i think a big reosen people voted labour is becuse of the tax credit. it puts money into the pocket of the majority of the country. and the majority vote with there pockets. not there concionse.

(ps loads o spelling errors for you spell checkers but im dyslexic so i care not, cant be assd to run a spellchecker on forum posts)

The council tax thing is still pretty similar as I understand it - get rid of council tax as it stands, then you have a local income tax to replace it, so it varies between places (so it'd still be more in London than in the middle of rural Yorkshire, and quite rightly). The increase in national income tax (particularly for the top earners, taking them up to 50% tax) was to pay for improvements in services like the NHS and transport.

doesnt seem to make any difference. if we were headed towards a lib parliment there would have been a few more gains this election. alas that it was not so. looks like the tories an labour gonna be the only people in power. untill the apocalypse that is.

i think they are shooting themslefs in the foot with increasing tax to the hier earners cuz people are tight. the press will never promote a party that is gonna tax them more.

its a shame becuse they come out with some wicked policies. i remeber hearing a liberal mp talking about how they would invest money in researching how to save the earth from a giant meteor, things like reprogramming our nukes so they could target objects in space.
if we ever get invaded by green aliens curse that you didnt vote libs!! there slow moving colony arcs would be vunarable to our nukes!!

I have to say that a 50% tax on the top 1% is a good idea, but with the influence those people have, they're wasting their time. If they said no tax for the top 1% they'd probably win.

AIEEE! You have succumbed to her chemical research too I see.

They're bloody awful. It's whipped up lard with sweetener, nothing more. So just say no kids.

btw check the Frankfurt stuff for some more info

Hmm that might be going a bit far mateo.

I'm now going to criticise YOU!

It's "their language", not "there language". Although it is the language over there. Also I suggest editing typos out. Please.

And 99 Flakes are made from dead hedgehogs.
