Why both Labour and the Tories are wrong over the 50% tax rate.

The pointless Punch and Judy show between the idiot puppets Brown and Cameron is simply no more than a ludicrous and grotesque mockery of the real taxation problem.

Anybody who earns more than £150,000 a year and does not have an accountant capable of "saving"them paying the extra tax really deserves to have ALL of their earnings stolen from them by Browns Buccaneers to pay for their banking mates and the billions of £ going to subsidise French Farmers,* Italian, Ferrari owning, Dentists* and Spanish brothels* in the EU.
The ones who are really getting screwed by this so-called Government of the working class are the workers themselves. You, I and Joe the Plumber are the ones being bent over by them and the fact the Tories are making such a fuss over the non-issue of the 50% tax rate shows how little they care for the electorate. Whenever the Government put another 2p on Petrol, 15p on fags, 5p on a pint, 1% on so called "National Insurance" (really nothing of the sort) or another expensive failure like HIPs it is those of us on less than £150,000 a year who pay disproportionately more out of our earnings. We are the ones who are getting battered by New Labours tax and spend policies but the champagne and 2 home socialists leeching off us give somewhat less than a monkeys as long as we pay our union subs so their fellow parasites can employ sycophants to pay for more of their lying propaganda.
Cameron and his cabal of EUphile cronies know no more and care even less about you and I. The fact they wet their pants over the 50% non-event shows not only how little they understand simple economics (sometimes they really do resemble Monty Pythons "Upper class twit of the Year" sketch) but how utterly incompetent they really are in the matter of politics. Any opposition with even the slenderest grasp on reality would by now have grasped the fact that the people being battered into the ground by the New-Labour morons are the hard working majority of Britons and proposed some policies to save them from being skinned alive financially. They are simply useless and I have garden furniture that would do a better job of running the country than the Bullingdon Buffoons.

*Yes we have paid for all those things courtesy of the EU.

Mandelson has a "Crisis, what crisis?" moment.

Good to know the economic disaster being endured by the working people of this country is just a mirage. The crooked Lord "Mandy" Mandelson who, along with his Government salary, is a recipient of a very fat pension from the EU, on condition he does not work against the interests of "The Project" is telling voters to stop being "so darned pessimistic".
I am sure his telling the millions of people whose house prices are crashing, jobs are being lost by the tens of thousands and savings are being decimated by the crashing economic incompetence of his party that "When people talk about the world with such pessimism they are ignoring all the opportunities and concentrating only on the risks." is a great comfort.

Would you care to tell the Ford workers in Southampton whose jobs are being exported to Turkey as a result of your party being in thrall to the EU or the British Fishermen being ruined because of the Common Fisheries Policy while other nations governments are subsidising their fishermen to denude our seas of fish or the tens of thousands of pensioners whose pensions have been robbed by your party leader where these "opportunities" are?

I am sure you and your equally slimy, creepy, colleagues are having plenty of "opportunities" to put your snouts in the trough of our hard earned taxes but soon enough you and all your friends will be thrown out and we will have a government that cares for the laws of our nation, our industries destroyed by the last 60 years of Lab/Con incompetence and selling out to the EEC/EC/EU and for the honest, hard-working men and women whose pockets have been picked by you and your dishonest cronies.

Our coming victory in the June elections will be the first wave of the tsunami that will sweep you away.

Why bother subsidising new car sales?

What is the point in subsidising new car sales, as our government seems intent on doing in an attempt to squander what little is left of our grandchildrens cash?

Firstly, the overwhelming majority of cars sold in this country are not made here. We would merely be exporting cash. I admit that this is one of the 2 major export successes of this government, along with exporting British jobs.

Second. What possible good will encouraging the further expansion of personal indebtedness do? Don't we already have a ruinous level of this poison?

Thirdly, to give a subsidy on sending older cars to the scrapheap will cause further use of scarce natural resources, something Nanny Brown is using his fiscal handcuffs to stop us doing.

Fourthly, will not the disappearance of these old bangers cause loss of mobility, and therefore ability to go where the work is, to the poorer sections of our society who will then have to resort to sky high and frequently insecure public transport?

It seems that, in order to fund German, French and Japanese industry, Mr. Brown will go to any lengths with our money.

Nigel Farage "Monsters" EU Presidential candidate .

A televised debate in Strasbourg broadcast on Euronews saw Martin Shultz, the President since 2004 of the EUs PES (Party of European Socialists) and a member of Germanys SPD, say "Imagine if Germany had held referendums on Polish, Czech or other new memberships. I don’t think it would have been a good idea if Germany had held European enlargement hostage to referendums."

Nigel Farage then told Mr Shultz that "You’re saying we mustn’t ask the German people what they think, we must lead them, this is terrifying." He reminded Mr. Shultz of his words after the Irish people had voted "No" in their referendum. "We must not bow to populism" and that his anti-democractic views were "Monstrous".

Mr Shultz is best known for accusing Dutch MEP Erik Meijer of being a Nazi for stating that more countries would have voted no as the Dutch people did in their referendum on the EU Constitution if they were given an opportunity.

The fact that Mr. Shultz is still seen as a candidate after his utterly anti-democratic outbursts and refusal to concede that the European peoples might actually have valid views on the destruction of their historic nation-states shows exactly what we are dealing with and is just one more reason why we need the people of the United Kingdom to say YES to independence and NO to the EU on June 4th.
