Re: If tax calculators are to believed, staying in the UK means getting robbed
All things considered UK is actually not that bad in comparison with other nations.
ROFLMAO. You get persecuted for having screwdriver in your pocket while criminals use pistols. There is higher rate of some criminal offenses in London than in Cape Town. And yet they keep robbing you saying how much they take care of you and how they are ensuring your safety. Sure, not bad
I've forgotten the name of the Anarchist but I was told about this guy who had been accused by police of having a brick in his pocket at a protest and throwing at them and the only way he could prove his innocence was getting his coat forensically examined to prove that there wasn't even a trace of brick in the pockets. The only difference between the countries people like to attack so much is honesty, western countries generally tend to be much better at hiding and lying about their corruption whereas the eastern countries just can't be bothered with any of that.
Oh and Hawker I guess I have to agree with you on the voter thing if those turnout numbers are right, but the interesting thing is that my family is pretty pro-labour but they're getting tired of all the bullshit as well which is interesting, I think that the main reason people in the UK vote now is to make sure that the 'other guy' doesn't get in. As demonstrated by labour in the last election when they tried using that tactic against the neo-conservative party.
I think we'll see more George Galloway type manoeuvres by the voters just to make sure none of the main parties win, or at least I hope to see some of it
lol the look on the Labour parties' faces was fantastic when it happened.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=crvy6twP_3s
