Waste of taxpayers money must be at the top of any chancellors list before any cuts are made in public services.

Cut the waste and you will find £Billions, the public could assist you with what they find out through the media, but what’s needed here is whistle blowers with the first hand information needed.

What we need is to stop the obvious drain of our money and rights which is the EU…but Cameron won’t have anything said against it apart from rectification of the Lisbon treaty.

Stewart Wheeler seems the only guy that wants forward on this subject and wish him the best of luck!

We heard last week that Hopwood village in Worcestershire is about to get 20 new houses built against all advise, mai advise is on marshland, but the EU have said it will happen….Brown says be British, how can we be when we are administered by foreign countries.

At the games he said be GB British, the BRITISH FLAG will be at the 2012 olympics, no it won’t, for the EU want there flag there instead and will we hear happen…what’s gone wrong John with this country, how can so few have so much effect on the masses, have we the public not watched the signs when we should have or is it just a rich man’s world now and we are just the milch cows with no future of belonging anywhere AND AS thorneycroft once said, they couldn’t handle the truth?……(Piece shortened as became a rant along the same lines-ed)

Taxation of the economy implies a tax on consumption. Any tax on the productive sector, including employees, has to be an eventual cost to consumers. Everyone is a consumer. Everyone, including those who don’t think they pay any tax, actually pay tax when they spend. Higher earners spend more, thus pay more tax. That is the full extent of progressive taxation. Income taxes and taxes on business completely mislead voters about where the real burden of taxation falls.

See the proof:

The consumer is the ultimate taxpayer.

Well, I am smelling fear whenever a Treasury or Bank of England so called “expert” is heard or seen in the media. To coin a phrase, “things are worse than advertised”. Unfortunately, our financial reporters are not up to the job and appear not to know enough to ask the questions that need answering. Stuff like, just how big is the total credit market debt in the UK. How much in Treasury bonds are being issued every month and is it accelerating exponentially. How much new paper money is being printed each month by the BoE and subsequently devaluing the little bit I have in my bank.

Tinkering with VED and Stamp Duty John is like having a pissing contest on top of a mountain. Everyone is forgetting how high the mountain is; and, at some stage we have to get down the mountain before we all freeze to death, and leave the kids destitute with the bills we left them.

Reply: I agree the government needs to curb spending to control the build up of debt.It’s running at around £50 billion extra this year or more – we can’t get accurate figures yet from HMT – some say as high as £60 billion a year

Reply: Not all asylum seekers are illegal, but I agree we should enforce fair rules and have sensible arrangements with neighbouring states to help us control our borders.

Hence the more of a mess the country is in the more they will spend !

They seem to reject Monetarism out of hand.

Also the Government seem to of forgotten the amount of money they have to give to the European Union to remain in membership of such a wasteful organisation.

Wasn’t it you who noticed that, when questioned, Yvette Cooper looked at the floor when you mentioned the debt of £1.3 trillion debt?
That is almost exactly double the government’s annual gross income.

The figure which I would like to know, truthfully, is exactly how much tax is not being paid when it ought to be. The government website blithely quotes the USA shortfall as 14% and says that the British deficit is much smaller than that. It would be nice to know the exact figure.
And inflation, too, by the way, is , apparently, well under 5%……..
