    Hazel Blears ay. A parasite and a completely useless bureaucrat of the 1st order if ever there was.

    How surprising [not] she should come out asking for even more 'no strings' free handouts from the tax payer.

    Yes, and it would be outsourced to India.

    Would this be available to all political parties or just the ones which NL approve of?

    I wouldn't want any of my tax money going to new labour in the same way that a muslim would not want to fund the BNP

    Yes but the difference being that the Governing Bank in power would be telephoning you rather than vice versa.

    Just to make sure you are happy.

    I have long argued that the UK political system is outmoded and in need of regieme change.

    The current policical partys ie Labour Conservative etc should be abolished and replaced by the major Banks, so one would vote for Barclays TSB Royal Bank of Scotland etc

    Each banks manifesto would be identical save slight differences in macro economic policy ie setting of interest rates etc

    The funding of the banks naturally comes from their vast operating profits and if need be,customer accounts.

    Thus we would have a genuine secular moneteraist soceity, the Bankers would be the new high priests and their flock the consumers whom have the democratic freedom of electing ulimtately the same cartel of fianancers to rule over them all under the illusion of democracy.

    If people who vote for the party are not prepared to support it financially then tough - that party is not fit for Govt.

    Wouldnt you feel better donating that to a charity ?
