So it's even more y crapitude than it initially appeared?

As if that were possible ...

'when my life is over, the thing which will have given me greatest pride is that I was first to plunge into the sea, swimming freely underwater without any connection to the terrestrial world' Yves Le Prieur, the real inventor of the aqualung:



Quote: fargrange1 "Noticed Osbourne did not once utter the phrase " were all in this together ", but all the front bench of millionaires blushed when Milliband asked them to nod if they were now to get a 5% tax cut. Hypocrites
If someone on £1 million gets no salary rise next year, the will still have an inflation busting 4.25% rise JUST with the tax cut.

With pay freezes for the poorest, increase tax burden on the pensioners who have a modest works pension, cutting of benefits and other measures targeting the poorest, is it suprising even this thick public school oaf has the savvy not to use the phrase.

You could give up and donate the money to the chancellor to plug the loopholes in the tax system for the rich.

Oh, no forgot, they are volunteering to stop using them which will pay for the loss of £3 billion Gideon has just given them. icon_wink.gif

Good - it would only go in the recycling bin. When we have no control over what happens between elections it hardly seems worth telling us what the money is being spent on. No amount of ing and moaning will stop it happening (e.g. War in Iraq, NHS changes, welfare changes)

I thought someone might have commented on the Automatic Review of the State Pension age. Does this mean putting my pension age to 67 or more since they last put it up from 65 to 66 last year. Sorry I forgot we are all living to 100 plus. Not where I live they arnt icon_evil.gif

Tell you what, it's not a brag, but I'm bloody glad I gave up eight weeks ago. And the driving force behind that was the cost - specifically, being charged over £9 at Glasgow airport last November - even though i'm fortunate enough that it wouldn't be a make or break cost.

But, yet again, who suffers most? It's almost as if they're actually saying that anyone who isn't already wealthy or on a very good whack can go swivel.

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm in danger of running out of adjectives to describe this lot. I wasn't much impressed with Labour in general (and detested Blair specifically), hated Thatcher etc, but this lot ... Well, their quite obvious sheer nastiness seems to know no bounds. And they're barely even trying to hide it.

That's because they're banned (unless behind the bar where customers can't get at them)

Stick with it, Minty! I quit about 6 years ago (like you, due to cost) and whenever I go into a shop I look at the price of the fags just to remind myself what a good move it was.

I imagine that a few in the Shadow Cabinet are feeling pleased at their tax cut tonight too.

"Millionaire Ed Miliband inherited a share of a multi-million pound property from his Marxist father, some nifty footwork by him and his brother David allowed them to avoid paying six-figure inheritance taxes. Combining marital assets and his inheritance from his father Ralph, Ed himself is comfortably a millionaire."

Hope you succeed. I have never been tempted to smoke, but my wife smoked up until 6 years ago, she tried many times for 'you' or 'the kids', it wasn't unit she decided it was for 'her' she managed it. Touch wood, she has been 'clean' since.

One thing that regularly makes me smile is when she gets a whiff of a smoker and asks 'did I really smell like that' to which I reply 'worse' icon_biggrin.gif

I for one don't care if they are all millionaires, I just want them to pay up without whinging.

Cheers mate!

I had given up previously, for over four years, without problem. But then I had a legacy - totally unexpected - that shifted us out of perpetual working poverty. And I started having nightmares about it all being gone and us being back where we'd started. And that's when is started smoking again.
