    So nothing to do with:

    A. VAT about to rise 2.5%
    B. An end to the government using taxpayers money to bribe people to buy a pointless new car they probably didn't need.


    No, it's proof Britain is booming.

    On one hand the government wants us to produce less greehouse gases, on the other they want to produce new cars - which probably creates more CO2 than just keeping the current cars on the road. And, they used my money to do it. Rubbish.
