Thatcher and the poll tax

Do away with local council tax and fund the councils from central government. Paying a tax to fund local services based on how big your house is graded 25 years ago is a nonesense.

Doing away with foreign aid would help.

[Fug1]

I think everyone, man, woman, child should pay the equivalent of council tax to central government for defence of Britain and to pay countrywide stuff.

All other taxes should be collected by local authorities according to their levies set by themselves.

Get rid of the banking system, have local non profit making banks, let areas dictate how they think it's best to proceed.

It's only since 1652 that it's changed.

Make people responsible for themselves and the area they live in.

A formula for disaster.
Not saying it's right now, but this would be a disaster.
There are good reasons why we got rid of it in 1652.

Uniform business rate oh how that helped small business men

So?

You think regions can flourish, or not on a whiem?

I've gave you my disaster Hillman, what's yours?

Let people do what they want and let others pick up the peices? (I know.)

What is wrong with people doing what's right for people, in areas that don't need help as such, just can do without being industrially raped by fucking cunts that I've never heard of telling me it's great?

[Fug1]

You have no idea what the cheap seats look like.

I don't know what a "whiem" is.

But much of our problems arise from the structural economy we have, which sucks work and wealth into the south east.

There have been all kinds of ideas to try to assuage that, but it would be very much worse if each region lived off its own tax take. Some parts of the country would become wastelands. The regions where unemployment was highest would have the lowest tax revenues, but the biggest demand for welfare.

Ans, as Heenan says, there's more. Transport, health , education , law enforcement and much more would be threatened.

[Fug1]

We agree then?

[Kowalski]

Get rid of council tax and tax food instead, that way everyone pays and the greediest pay the most.

[The Tick]

Get rid of council tax and tax food instead, that way everyone pays and the greediest pay the most.

And the poorest starve.

[Kowalski]

Not if they don't have to pay the council tax. They'll probably be better off. The greedy will be the worst off.

Better than what we have now,poor fat bastards.

Here goes(sigh)

The State are 20 years ahead of what you are moaning about.

Legal stuff about having minorities having to be in a workforce are not for people from eastern Europe or dark skinned people they are for white people.

The mines and steel and industry where shut down along with apprenticeships because the State know that there would be an influx of Poles and other loser countries who where and are good at their job and would undercut people from here.
Would the State want people from all over Europe sleeping in the streets because they could not get a job?

People in Scotland and elsewhere started to get political and that's why they let Drugs flood the poor parts just to shut them up.


As i said the State at the time was right over the Poll Tax because they had the foresight to see 1 guy with 5 wifes and 10 weans paying nothing.
