That's me on a moderate day. UKIP party member since 2009. I am quite unreformable. Enoch was the greatest Prime Minister this country never had, Coudenhove-Kalergi plan etc etc etc. My daughter being one of only two white kids in her year's intake of over 120 pupils changed my views forever.

I've always found you to be one of the nicest, sanest, funniest posters on the board, one of the allover good guys. And now you admit to insanity.
Oh, the shame, oh the pity, oh the humanity, sorry alien-lizardity.....

I think his outburst will be a little uncomfortable for his chief spin doctor George Eustice, who once stood for UKIP in the European elections!
This is just a dig at the UKIP party who are trying to use the Freedom of Information Act to find the doners who lent the Tory party £5m or so. Cameron is keen to take some of the UKIP electorate share so expect lots of tit for tat in the future. His job is to win the next election and he will probably take a leaf out of "new" labours book: say one thing to appease the middle ground and then lean towards a tradionally right wing agenda once in power and the true state of the economy has finally been revealed.
Also expect this incident to be fuelled by "new" labour to distract from their "cash for peerages" embarassment.
Like zathras, I'm willing to back anyone that is prepared to reduce (or flat) tax, reform welfare, reform immigration and stop building so many prefabs in the South East.Last edited by hyperD; 4 April 2006, 14:26.

PS I fully expect the tax burden to go up under Cameron in the short Term. Just as Maggie put up taxes when she came to power. In the medium to short term I think they will go down.
Of course if Cameron scrapped the Tax Credit system and then reduced the tax burden on the lower paid then he would save a mint in not managing the tax credit system (which does not go to the people intended for the simple reason it is too complex to apply for).Last edited by zathras; 4 April 2006, 13:31.

And don't think I haven't noticed that there are no Dalek Smilies available opposite... discrimination that's what it is!
I am sorry to learn of your plight, what with the recent draconic EC rules of engagement, outsourcing to the Cybermen, life as a Dalek is not what it once was.
Just whom does a Dalek turn to in these troubled times...

You are correct though that the only true life is Dalek life. Imperial Dalek life that is.
Still, you serve your purposes.

I thought in the beginning that Cameron was just spouting all this stuff to gain some sort of popularity with the unwashed masses but I am now beginning to wonder. If he genuinely believes it we are all in trouble - devil and the deep blue sea. As for reducing the tax burden - they will have to go up substantially at some point in the forseeable (?) to fill in all the black holes created by Gordon Blair
