Will Ozzy's Speech Make Any Difference

[K12beano]

Ozzy Osbourne's long lost twin, Georgie, is apparently going to say some words of wisdom - will it make sod-all difference...


...to anything.

[AndrewW-G]

Nope, unless he announces something useful like a reduction in foreign aid, or the end of subsidies for windmills or a referendum on the EU or a tax cut

[thinfourth2]

Actually Ozzy would probably be more useful

They are. Green investment banks, windmills, a larger welfare addicted society, an increase in national debt etc. They're building all of these.

Well - fuel duty increases are shelved.

Not all though

Here comes Balls

st! I'm suddenly retuned into the Muppet Show!

Stammering fkwit.

His speech has no point. Even Winky's batty-boy Peston admitted, in the pre-amble to the live speech, that the UK's problems were caused by excessive Labour borrowing.

He might as well be wearing a spinning bow tie.

[Victor McDade]

You know the world has gone mad when Labour are lecturing the Tories about taxes needing to be cut.

Maybe Balls has a point. I've always been told by those more economically knowledgable than me that lower taxes = higher revenue. Something about the laffer curve?? If this is really true then why not start slashing things like VAT or the top level of income tax?

Last week they were complaining that the coalition would leave them a deficit to deal with:

So the people who can't / won't work are better off than those that do work?

Genius. What incentive does that give them to get a job. Workers get a 1% increase the unemployed get a 5.2% increase.



Also borrowing:

In 2011-12 it is now forecast at £127bn - up from £122bn forecast in the Budget - £120bn in 2012-13, £100bn in 2013-14 and £79bn in 2014-15.


Thats a lot of money. Where is it all going?

So it would seem.

Nurse gets £1 more and is taxed on that £1, Shaznay gets £5.2p untaxed to fund her breeding-scum program.

Expect anarchy at these strikes.

Fail at life and my taxes subsidise your lifestyle and now your ability to buy a house.
