Herman 11,115 Posted November 1, 2012 "all Labours fault"Not all Labours fault,but they sure have to take some responsibilty for the state of our economy.Thanks to their spendthrift ways,they left the door wide open for the Tories to partake in their legendary cutting.

[/quote]Ford 1600 made redundant Comet 6500 and our Health service in the east another 500 jobs to go, yes the economy is doing great, especially the arms dealers and manufacturers, what a facile point to make.So its the left that is wasting 3.3million of our money to cover up their smeary Tory politics in Norfolk, it was the left that is considering to scrap recycling and burn all the jobs that come with it instead?Now to your point of the rich pulling out the money they earned from other people, hard working labourers. Off course the Tory''s have kept the back door to tax havens open, despite having the judicial powers over these British dependencies, mainly, that''s what they are there for, making money for their own ilk and by the dirtiest tricks possible. So you think that these so called nice and up standing rich individuals, multinational corporations who have no social responsibility at all and fail to pay taxes here, should be allowed to sell their goods to us, regardless of whether they take their money out of the country, do you? Such fine, upstanding and respected tax avoiders would blackmail Britain, just so they can carry on making money?What do you think people will do then? let them carry on trading? same as it ever was? well think again, these pariahs need lancing, eff off, why don''t they, we have enough other foreign criminals coming here with their money and replacing our scoundrels, rain for downpour, so what!

nevermind, neoliberalism has had it 159 Posted July 15, 2013 Those charged with sustaining the tax evasion that has been going on, have made progress, well they sound up beat and really good about it, whatever the situation. They believe in clarity and want to tell us who is doing it, but fail to stem the tide or change the equation.I wonder why they all feel so good about their failure?http://12160.info/forum/topics/corridors-of-powder-drug-scandal-at-the-houses-of-parliament-afte Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
