Did Thatcher create the Chav underclass?

And you believe that

a local income tax would be administered more cheaply and efficiently than the current council-tax. You don't believe there'd be yet another bunch of council-employed jobsworths created to administer it?
I admire your optimism.

So another thread to discuss something totally unrelated to taxation turns into a thread about exactly that.

Speaks volumes for the mentality of the typical tory voter.

Hands up any tory voters on the board

You must be confusing us with your class-enemy, mr Benn.

Hence my suggestion they just take it out of general taxation, and it gets forwarded to the appropriate council.

How about the stereotype of a Tory politician instead?, in which case I nominate John Prescott and much of NL.

[benn0]

yes you do.

That says more about you than it does me.

[Dundeegeorge]

ooh, moral high-ground

That says more about you than it does me.

much good it will do you when the socialists come to steal all your possessions.

[benn0]

funny how any debate with a tory leads to one of two things.

1. Moaning about how much tax the tory pays.

2. Claims that the 'socialist' is taking the moral high ground.

Every time.

Change the record please.
