The Government (not supported by 78% of the registered electorate) is now considering further restrictions on how you spend your money. They are looking at ways of preventing city dwellers from buying second homes in rural villages. (You NAUGHTY NAUGHTY PEOPLE!)

You will be safe under Blair ......................... it's Brown you should look out for!!

It will NOT be the same cosy nest for the well off under Brown! Oh, no, some social engineering will take place then!

Brown WILL be the problem for those with wealth ..... he is an absolute socialist in the purest form!!

Chavs will get MORE and work LESS and have MORE sproggs!!

Pray that Blair stays till the end!!

It certainly seems, most of the time anyway, that if you work hard in this country, and are able to do well for your self, that you are penalised.


On the other hand, if you are the opposite, then everything is handed to you on a plate by way of State Benefit etc.

Not good....................

Step 1: Become self employed

Step 2: find a very good accountant

I think that PSL is right about Brown and that things would move in a different direction, not necessarily in the way that most would want should he achieve power.

Personally I am looking forward to the end of the lot of them.

Where does this Govnmt get off? They won't get off for at least 4 years thanks to the voting public. Well done, *********.
