.. Surely the easiest way is to restore the 10% tax band? or is that just a little TOO simple?

For Gordo, yes. He's a control freak with an insatiable urge to redistribute money as *he* thinks fit (or "target" it, as he'd say).

Just letting everyone keep more of their own money goes against all his leftie instincts and, incredible and incomprehensible as it seems to everyone except him, this applies even to the lowest paid.

There was someone else going on about this in Business or Accounting within the last month or so...

I tried to find out if it was compulsory or not, but failed dismally.

Did these people turn up to your house?

Yes, they turned up and grilled the missus about stuff she has no idea about.

This one was apparently not compulsory (ain't hindsight a bitch) but they don't tell you this before hand. The business ones are though IIRC.

I believe that, but I suspect that few politicians do. GB for example clearly works for his own moral vision, and we are a means of achieving that. This would be true of Thatcher too.

Surely in the case of thatcher the market is the way of achieving that?

Hey Dodgy,

Do you have some special "Thatcher" filter or sommat? Maybe it's a bit like the one you use to download all the jobs off jobserve.
