    I have my own pension plan

    I'm saving up a million or so then I can donate it to New Lie, you may laugh but wait till I'm in my Ermine and enjoying the 2 million a time kick backs for supplying dodgy drugs.

    Sorted, after all its only fair the real wealth creators should get all their profits out tax free in Monaco.

    Just as it's not fair for public sector workers to have to work until 65 because they never have before.

    Their union always wheels out the extreme examples of 65-year-old bobbies on the beat chasing 18-year-old felons across roofs, and 65-year-old nurses heaving 20 stone patients in and out of bed (presumably on their own, but that is never made clear).

    FFS that's what good management is for, to give people tasks they are capable of. What happens to a builder who can no longer carry big bags of cement about? He can't retire at 55 or 60 on an indexed linked, publicly-funded pension. He does other jobs.

    These situations are a minority in public services anyway. Most of them are pen-pushers.

    On the contrary I think it is high time we got really mad and started smashing things. A few massive riots in London over all the continual gross intrusions into our lives and the massive robbery by the state to support undemocratic measures and an ever growing army of the Fecking useless, both home grown and from abroad, might change a few minds.

    Stringing them up Mussolini style and smashing their sodding brains out with baseball bats might change them even more effectively.
    Its just a question of time. As somebody once said ...


    White riot - I wanna riot
    White riot - a riot of my own
    White riot - I wanna riot
    White riot - a riot of my own



    Black people gotta lot a problems
    But they don't mind throwing a brick
    White people go to school
    Where they teach you how to be thick

    An' everybody's doing
    Just what they're told to
    An' nobody wants
    To go to jail!

    All the power's in the hands
    Of people rich enough to buy it
    While we walk the street
    Too chicken to even try it

    Everybody's doing
    Just what they're told to
    Nobody wants
    To go to jail!

    Are you taking over
    or are you taking orders?
    Are you going backwards
    Or are you going forwards?

    John,

    you're taking it all far too seriously.

    You need to go home and have a good lie down.

    Milan.

    This £5b/year compounded theft of our private pension funds by gordon clown has been talked about and discussed since he started the robbery in 1997, but no one seems to think anything of it.

    And yet, an overweight business owner who stole peoples' pension funds and then "fell" overboard is despised and hated every minute of the day.

    What gives?

    Absolutely JG. Means testing with no consideration of effort put in is destroying any incentive.

    Talking about my Degeneration ...
    My Degeneration Baby

    Why dont you all fff...fade away
    Life it seems, will fade away
    Drifting further every day
    Getting lost within myself
    Nothing matters no one else
    I have lost the will to live
    Simply nothing more to give
    There is nothing more for me
    Need the end to set me free
    Things are not what they used to be
    Missing one inside of me
    Deathly lost, this can’t be real
    Cannot stand this hell I feel
    Emptiness is filling me
    To the point of agony
    Growing darkness taking dawn
    I was me, but now he’s gone
    No one but me can save myself, but it’s too late
    Now I can’t think, think why I should even try
    Yesterday seems as though it never existed
    Death greets me warm, now I will just say good-bye

What gets me is that no-one comes on and says GB has spent all the money, added tax to share dividends and basically screwed our pensions - oh no it is just how can we accomodate this new piece of New Lie policy so it is 'fair'
