An Aston Villa "fan" is our next PM.

Back to Sackcloth Ox's comment that we are all in this mess together, the only way I can see that tax increases / pay cuts working is for it to be on everyone, such as VAT and basic rate of income tax. That way it affects public and private sector alike.
Spain will implement a 5% reduction in public sector wages this year, freeze wages in 2011, also suspending a pension hike. 2,500 euro subsidy for new parents scrapped, foreign aid trimmed, public investment will fall 6BN Euros.

Let's hope the Beeb's budget gets cut, they get too much of my money. How many more of their management get paid more than the PM? Wasn't it 220 ||?
Why?

Re:
There you go again. It's bigoted not to like the tories, but perfectly reasonable not to like anyone else. Have you considered that some people actually don't like tory policies? Or are only right-wingers allowed to have valid political opinions? Your standard of argument is usually higher than this, GY."GodalmingYellow" wrote:I hate the greedy, self-centred, smug, Union, left wing lying bastards.

They're all greedy, lying bastards, that's why they're politicians.

I've no problem with people not liking Tories or any other party because of their policies, but on this thread, and in many many other cases on this site and elsewhere, the comments are along the lines of "I hate the greedy, smug, blah, blah Tories" with no reference to policies. It is always an irrational prejudiced hatred.
You are absolutely right that everyone has the perfect right to establish whether they like or dislike anyone, but prejudiced or irrational or bigoted views are worthless and pointless in my opinion.
Sure some of the contributors above will have considered and formed their views, and I wasn't getting at them personally, just the tedious "I hate the Tories" type line.
Fine have a hatred of the Tories, but at least explain why.
