        One could, presumably, pay several minimum wagers to go on strike for you thus registering your protest while continuing to bill.
        While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

            Vote Conservative, it'll soon put a stop that that malarkey.



            Vote with your feet. Get an IT job abroad.

              Good to see some facts and figures added to a point that has been made by a number of people here. Now how do we get that out in front of the masses and politicians alike?
              Just saying like.

              where there's chaos, there's cash !

              I could agree with you, but then we would both be wrong!

                Since when do politicians care about facts and figures and people? Anyway the article is donkey's years old and has come to pass and more so. Dave is already working on the next tranche, has lowered their salary and stopped counting them since then.

                    Masses couldn't give a tulip as long as there's cheap lager at ASDA and Big Brother on the telly.

                    Politicians couldn't give a tulip as long as there's subsidised Champagne at the Westminster bar and a new show on at the theatre.
